Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The green advanced/hybrid manufacturing process has become increasingly important in industry due to carbon tax and a friendly environment. The surface quality of difficult-to-machine materials and metallic materials, such as Inconel, tungsten carbide, polycrystal diamond (PCD), cermet, ferrous and non-ferrous metals, is affected by the conditions of cutting tools, workpieces, process parameters, lubrication, machine performance, etc. Many green advanced/hybrid manufacturing processes have been developed in recent years to enhance the machinability of these materials. In this Special Issue, the research topics of interest include the experiment and simulation of green metal cutting/milling/forming/ultrasonic-vibration-assisted milling (USM)/laser-assisted milling (LAM)/minimum quantity lubrication (MQL)/electrical discharge machining (EDM)/wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM)/electrochemical machining (ECM)/ultrafast laser/micro particle bombarding (MPB) surface treatment, such as micro peening and micro blasting. All papers related to increasing the manufacturing efficiency of high-performance metallic materials with lower energy consumption and fossil lubrication via green advanced/hybrid manufacturing are welcome to this Special Issue.

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 2000 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.
