Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In modern engineering practice, a wide range of metals and high-performance materials are extensively employed. These materials play a critical role in various fields such as aerospace, the automotive industry, and maritime engineering, driving continuous technological advancements.
The performance and applications of different materials are closely intertwined, making in-depth research into material properties, processing methods, and deformation mechanisms crucial to meet the demands of modern engineering practice. This includes the emergence of new materials, such as high-entropy alloys and nanomaterials. It encompasses various scales, from the microscopic to the macroscopic, involving aspects like micro-deformation mechanisms, lattice slip, dislocation movement, and phase transformations.
The primary objective of this Special Issue is to enhance our understanding of the mechanical properties, processing techniques, and deformation mechanisms of diverse materials. We encourage researchers to share their findings, fostering collaboration and knowledge exchange across different material domains, ultimately driving the advancement of modern engineering practice.

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.
