Nanomaterial Design and Fabrication for Enhanced Mechanical Behavior

Dear Colleagues,

We are inviting submissions to this Special Issue on Research on Mechanical Behavior of Nanomaterials.

One of the most important performance indicators of nanomaterials is their mechanical properties. Novel nanomaterials that are stronger, tougher, and lighter are always desired in materials science and engineering applications. Driven via the growing demands from the areas of cutting-edge science and application, considerable research efforts should be devoted to upgrading the paradigms of material design and fabrication, which will contribute to the continuous progress in the fields of nanomaterials science and engineering in the future.

In this Special Issue, we invite submissions exploring cutting-edge research and recent advances in the fields of nanomaterials (such as large-scale composite materials, alloy nanomaterials, nano-metal, nano-nonmetal, nano-polymer materials, metallic oxides, and so on) with advanced mechanical behaviors. Both theoretical and experimental studies are welcome, as well as comprehensive review and survey papers.

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. Applied Sciences 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 2400 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.
