Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Burgeoning advanced high-energy nano/micro-manufacturing provides a state-of-the-art technique for engineering. An emerging issue in recent decades is the development of advanced materials and manufacturing using their advantages to expand the scientific technologies and industrial applications. This requires extensive, dedicated research on advanced processes, manufacturing methodologies, post-processing technologies, and assisted numerical simulation and analyses, which significantly affects the quality of mechanical parts. Advanced manufacturing technologies will drive high performance and functionality in global technologies.

Therefore, this Special Issue focuses on recent works related to advanced high-energy nano/micro-manufacturing technologies for engineering. Topics can include, but are not limited to, the following:

  1. Advanced high-energy nano/micro-manufacturing processes;
  2. Post-processing technology of mechanical parts;
  3. Functional/graded materials using advanced manufacturing methodologies;
  4. Modeling and numerical analyses in advanced manufacturing processes;
  5. Advanced detection, monitoring and intelligent control for manufacturing.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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 2100 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.
