Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
I would like to invite you to prepare scientific publications on broadly understood welding technologies used to modify the functional properties and structure of surface layers in materials engineering, which has become the area of interest for many scientists from research centres around the world. Welding technologies such as surfacing, spraying, remelting and alloying play a huge role in this aspect. In order to obtain appropriate functional properties, in addition to mastering the production technology, an appropriate additional material must be proposed or developed. We aim to present modern achievements in the area of manufacturing technology, metallurgy and process quality assessment. Computer techniques using advanced computational tools play a huge role in predicting structure and properties, and these aspects should also be presented.
This Special Issue will serve as a forum for papers on the following concepts:
- Technologies for producing surface layers using welding methods;
- Modern additional materials with special functional properties;
- The use of computer methods to predict the properties of surface layers;
- Qualitative assessment of broadly understood modification of surface layers;
- Diagnostics of manufacturing processes;
- Application of artificial intelligence in surface engineering.

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. Coatings 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.
