Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue features research and review articles on the characterization of metallic materials in various material behaviors, such as solidification, forming, and heat treatment. This Special Issue focuses on all characterization methods, including all forms of microscopy (transmission electron microscope, scanning electron microscope, etc.) and analytical techniques on microstructure, interface, surface, etc. Studies focusing on analysis using computational science are also welcome. Recent studies dealing with the behavior of materials in various phenomena (solidification, phase transformation, oxidation, diffusion, deformation, and so on) that can occur in processes such as casting, plastic working, and heat treatment are suitable for publication in this Special Issue. This Special Issue aims to provide materials scientists with up-to-date information explaining the behavior of many types of metallic materials using novel approaches. This Special Issue covers all kinds of metallic materials.

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. Materials 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 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.
