Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Residual stress can have detrimental or beneficial effects on the mechanical behavior of materials. Its evaluation, prediction/modeling and control in engineering materials assume, therefore, particular importance. This Special Issue of Metals is devoted to new advancements on measurement techniques and modeling and prediction of residual stresses in all kinds of metals: alloys, metal matrix composites, and hybrid metal–composite materials. Due to the increased demand of some key industries, such as automobile, aeronautical, and aerospace, in new materials and manufacturing processes, residual stresses related to additive manufacturing processes and hybrid metal–composite materials will be highlighted. However, residual stresses related to all manufacturing processes, surface treatments, and coatings will be covered. New developments in the understanding of the relationship between residual stresses and material properties and mechanical behavior are of great interest. Possible topics include experimental techniques and methods, genesis of residual stresses by manufacturing and processing of materials, simulation of stress profiles, texture–stress relationships, micro-meso-macro strain studies, residual stresses, and phase transformations.

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.
