Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Technical papers on the measurement and testing of properties of metal materials related to strength, toughness, hardness, thermal, conductive, resistance, corrosion, and other functions with applications in mechanical, structural, space, energy, transportation, medical, biological, and other fields in the form of solid, powder, fluid, mixture, composites, and others are solicited for this Special Issue of Metals. With advances in materials science and testing technology, there are emerging requirements for material testing for new features and properties, and many novel techniques for testing and measurement have been developed and utilized, especially for nanomaterials and composites with modification and enhancement of properties of metals. A collection of papers on techniques, methods, procedures, and reviews on the measurement, testing, evaluation, characterization, and standardization of metal properties will provide useful references and data for material design and development.

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.
