Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Thermal analysis, modeling and simulation play crucial roles in advancing manufacturing processes by providing insights into the complex thermal phenomena that occur during various manufacturing operations. Understanding and controlling temperature distribution, heat transfer and thermal-induced effects are vital for optimizing process parameters, improving product quality and ensuring operational efficiency. This Special Issue of Processes focuses on the latest developments and applications of thermal analysis, modeling and simulation in manufacturing processes.
The integration of thermal analysis techniques with advanced modeling and simulation approaches offers a powerful toolset to investigate and predict thermal behavior in manufacturing processes, such as casting, welding, additive manufacturing, machining and heat treatment. By simulating and analyzing thermal phenomena, researchers can optimize process conditions, reduce energy consumption, mitigate thermal-induced defects and enhance product performance.
This Special Issue invites researchers and practitioners to contribute their original research, reviews and case studies covering a wide range of topics, including innovative thermal analysis methods, advanced modeling techniques, experimental investigations, optimization strategies and real-world applications in manufacturing processes. The aim is to provide a platform for knowledge sharing, collaboration and the dissemination of cutting-edge advancements in the field of thermal analysis, modeling and simulation in 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. Processes 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.
