Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
High-efficiency processing of metals and alloys includes become the most relevant today technologies and techniques of processing metals and most advanced alloys, including high-performance and high-entropy ones, their fast adaptation to the most relevant production tasks for the broad field of applications, and green aspects of their implementation in the conditions of the real production. Newly developed technologies and equipment contribute to more efficient materials processing using high-energy fluxes, energy redistribution in the spot, redirection of the energy fluxes using assisting means, and efficient processing of the advanced and super-hard materials that were not possible to achieve with the traditional processing technologies using conventional production approach. Application of the high-efficiency processing technologies and their spread positively influence and accelerate the transfer to the next technological paradigm, multi-component material, and nanosystems.
The last achievements in the high-efficiency processing of metals and alloys have become a relevant topic in the most authoritative scientific journals, conferences, and other international scientific events for the previous decades.
The special issue is devoted to the most recent achievements in the high-efficiency processing of metals, the most relevant and advanced alloys.

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.
