Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Artificial neural networks (ANN) are already being used to solve classification and regression problems in metal forming processes, such as formability analysis, process optimization, and tool design. In this context, ANN-based techniques can be combined with real and/or synthetic data to model the non-linear relationships between the parameters of the forming process and the final quality of the components, such as their geometric features, the constitutive parameters of the materials, the occurrence of defects, and the estimation of component costs.
In this Special Issue, we welcome articles whose results, obtained in different applications to metal forming processes, show the potential of artificial-neural-network-based techniques.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Metals is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
