Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
To promote the sustainable development of society, it is crucial to develop new types of high-performance metallic materials. Moreover, advanced processing technologies are necessary in order to realize the performance of metal materials. In this Special Issue, we aim to receive papers that systematize processing–structure–property relationships in high-performance metallic materials through systematic examinations and analyses for macro-, micro-, and nano-structures evolved during the plastic deformation concomitant with both severe plastic deformation (i.e., cold and hot forging, rolling, extrusion, swaging, wire drawing, and hot pressing), as well as additive manufacturing. In addition, we are seeking studies that combine simulations and experiments to investigate high-performance metallic materials fabricated by advanced processing technology.
- The development of novel high functional metallic alloys;
- The high-temperature strength and plastic deformation of superalloys;
- The phase transformation and hot deformation behaviours of light metals (i.e., Mg and Al).
- The microstructural control and deformation processing of structural titanium alloys;
- The additive manufacturing and computer simulations of microstructural evolution.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at mdpi.longhoe.net 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. Crystals 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 2100 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.
