Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The laser welding is increasingly used in a variety of industries, e.g., rail transportation, automotive, marine, power plants, biomedical micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS), BioMEMS devices, etc. This Special Issue is focused on the challenges and opportunities faced by laser intelligent welding and quality assessment. Better understanding of the intelligent algorithms and quality assessment methodologies used in the laser welding is of great significance for achieving the welding process with high quality. Multi-disciplinary discussion and debate about the welding intelligent algorithms, welding process, welding quality assessment methodologies and welded joints performance are encouraged.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following: Laser welding; Welding intelligent algorithms; Welding modeling; Welded joints performance.
I look forward to receiving your contributions.
Dr. Yuewei Ai
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. Sustainability is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
