Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Current trends in the development of metal quality assessment methods are acquiring new features. These innovations require the consolidation of traditional and new methods for assessing the quality of surfaces that have symmetrical or asymmetrical Surface traits according to their manufacturing history. The quality of the metal surface determines the fulfillment of consumer requirements and the intensive development of production.
This Special Issue of Symmetry publishes articles on the introduction of new technologies in the production of metals while maintaining product quality. We collect materials covering a wide range of topics, including the following: mathematical modeling of surface texture, topological characterization, and in general, all contributions that tackle the theoretical and experimental characterization of symmetrical (i.e., periodical) or asymmetrical surfaces obtained via different 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. Symmetry 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 2400 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.
