Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Mesoscale interactions govern phenomena on a scale from 10 nanometers to 100 micrometers. This is the scale where microstructures form and properties and functionalities develop. Examples include the formation of dendrites, porous and anisotropic domains, and the development of hardness, ductility, and conductivity of materials. Mesoscale interactions enable computer simulations of these phenomena, allowing people to design optimal experimental setups and material processing conditions.

We are editing a Special Issue on this topic and seek papers on mesoscale modeling. This includes, but is not limited to, phase field models, cellular automata, smoothed particle hydrodynamics, and the lattice Boltzmann equation.

Prof. Dr. Rongshan Qin

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. Materials 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 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.
