Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Metallic materials have been used in space, transportation, energy production, industry, and other fields. The application potential of engineering materials depends on their properties for the considered use. To deepen the understanding of the relationships between the structure, properties, or functions of materials, multiscale experimental techniques have been developed, including advanced macro-mechanical testing such as tensile, compressive, fatigue, impact, and creep loadings, as well as microstructural characterization, such as optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, electron backscatter diffraction, electron probe microanalysis, and other advanced analytical techniques. In addition, nano and atomistic approaches, including density functional theory modeling, first-principles modeling, cohesive zone modeling, molecular dynamics simulation and Monte Carlo simulation, and finite element simulation, have also been developed to probe the fundamental deformation mechanisms of materials.
This Special Issue aims to cover recent advances and developments in the multiscale characterization and computational modeling/simulation of metallic materials. This issue will collect quality papers providing a sound base in the field for present and future scientists dealing with the enhancement of metallic materials properties for specific high-end applications.

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 2300 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.
