Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Welding is widely used as an essential technology for material joining in various industries. Generally, residual stress in welded alloys influences the quality and performance of these welded products. Great efforts have been made in attempt to find ways to control welding residual stress in order to promote the properties of welded alloys. However, welding residual stress still remains a difficult engineering problem because the measurement and prediction of welding residual stress are complex and interdisciplinary. This Special Issue, entitled “Properties and Residual Stresses of Welded Alloys”, is dedicated to publishing the latest scientific achievements in the field. Both reviews and articles are welcome to be submitted to this Special Issue. This Special Issue welcomes contributions of any kind in the fields of the microstructure, properties, residual stress, or numerical simulation of welded alloys. All approaches are encouraged, including theoretical, numerical, and experimental ones.
It is our pleasure to invite you to submit a manuscript to this Special Issue, and we look forward to receiving your submissions.

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.
