Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Rolling is one of the fields of metal forming that has great advantages in the mass production of raw materials, such as steel, aluminum and copper. Along with the rapid development of computer performance since the 1970s, the numerical analysis capability of rolling has improved rapidly, and, as a result, many papers on rolling and rolling process design have been published. In the 1990s, precise numerical analysis models began to be developed and numerical analysis results applicable to the actual rolling mill (or process line) began to appear in the literature. However, this is possible only in a very restricted range, and there is a limit in applying it to the production site. Some successful results of numerical analysis applicable to the actual rolling mill were recently generated, and redesigning the rolling process has been shown to improve the quality of a product. Hence, in this Special Issue, entitled “Advances in Numerical Analysis and Design of Rolling Processes”, we would like to publish mechanics-based or metallurgy-based numerical analysis papers that can be applied to the actual rolling mill and rolling process.

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. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
