Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Metallic materials are widely used in the aerospace, transportation, and petrochemical industries. On the one hand, advanced plastic forming processes, such as hot stamping, extrusion forming, and forging forming, help to prepare high-performance parts with complex shapes. On the other hand, advanced severe plastic deformation processes, such as equal channel angular extrusion, high pressure torsion, multi-directional forging, and cumulative rolling welding, can greatly improve the microstructure and mechanical properties of metal materials. The goal of this Special Issue is to publish original, important, and developed research papers that focus on metal plastic deformation and forming.
In this Special Issue, we welcome the latest research on metal plastic deformation and forming. Appropriate topics include but are not limited to the following: metal material stamping, forging, extrusion, bending, or torsion forming process and finite element simulation technology; the severe plastic deformation process of metal materials; and the microstructure evolution, mechanical properties test, and related simulation during plastic deformation.

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. Metals 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 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.
