Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, new technologies have promoted the development of more and more complex structures and systems. As an example, Additive Manufacturing (AM) technologies open new roads in the design of reticular and lattice structures. These are often impregnated with lubricant or damping fluids to improve the lubrication/heat dissipation of the system or its NVH behavior.
While in the past, the interaction of metal components and fluids was carried out mainly by means of experimental measurements, recent developments in computer science have promoted the adoption of numerical techniques. A typical example are the power losses of gearboxes.
While it is common practice to use Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations for the design of structures such as wings, there are many new possibilities to solve technical issues or improve the performances of a mechanical systems using numerical approaches.
The aim of this Special Issue is to collect examples of the innovative applications of CFD.

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.
