Special Issue Information
A great deal of the research work performed in design and manufacturing deals with the use and advancement of new technologies. Novel methodologies and intelligent tools help design and manufacturing engineers to reduce the time to market and increase the quality of the products and services offered.
Both design and manufacturing can be seen from a variety of views, and it is expected that this multidisciplinary Special Issue will bring together researchers from a variety of areas. This will result in a collection of different perspectives regarding the latest progress in technologies and advancements that lie at the core of an engineer’s work. This blending of expertise and outcomes will, in turn, encourage further cooperation.
This Special Issue provides an opportunity for researchers to present recent advances and technologies in the aforementioned fields as well as outline the future trends for design and manufacturing technologies.
Suitable topics for this Special Issue include, but are not limited to:
- Additive manufacturing and applications
- CAD/CAM/CAE systems and technologies
- Reverse engineering and prototyping
- Linear and non-linear finite element simulations
- Robotics in manufacturing
- CMM applications and cloud manufacturing
- Precision machining, micromachining, and machinability
- Design and manufacturing optimization applications
- Advances in design and manufacturing simulations
- Computational design and Industry 4.0
- Soft computing in design and manufacturing applications
- Conventional and non-conventional manufacturing processes

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. Micromachines 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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
