Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite you to contribute to our Special Issue on “Advances in Manufacturing of Ceramic Matrix Composites”. Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMCs) are driving innovation and maturing into enabling materials for high-temperature structures in gas turbines, hypersonic vehicles, and nuclear power applications.
In recent years, there has been significant effort in advancing the manufacturing of CMCs with the goal of improving their quality, cost, properties, and scalability. The articles presented in this Special Issue will cover the recent advances and related challenges in the manufacturing of a broad range of CMCs such as oxide/oxide, SiC/SiC, C/SiC, C/C-SiC, and ultra-high temperature ceramic matrix composites (UHTCMCs).
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Emerging methods of manufacturing such as additive manufacturing.
- Improvements in traditional manufacturing methods.
- Low-cost manufacturing.
- Process–property relationships.
- Process modeling and optimization.
- Advancements in interfacial coating methodologies.
We believe that your contribution will greatly enrich this Special Issue. We look forward to receiving your submission.
Dr. Abhendra Singh
Guest Editor
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.
