The journal covers the processing techniques used in manufacturing components from metals and other materials. The journal aims to publish
reports of original, significant and rigorous work and so to contribute to increased production efficiency and improved component performance.
Areas of interest to the journal include:
• Casting, forming and machining
• Additive processing and joining
technologies
• The evolution of material properties in manufacturing processes
• Engineering or degradation of
surfaces in manufacturing processes
• Design and behavior of equipment and tools
Typical articles will contribute
significant new transferable knowledge in the form of (a) an innovation or (b) a new insight into material processing in the form of
a transferable qualitative or quantitative explanation of a difference between experimental measurements and the predictions of existing
theory.
The Journal of Materials Processing Technology does not accept papers in the following areas:
•Simulation with
no experimental verification and/or which gives no new insight into the process.
•Topics that properly belong to the materials
science literature. Examples include the fabrication of materials, chemical experiments and studies of material composition.
•The
analysis of material properties or product performance without reference to the processing which caused them.
•Statistical
methods or techniques from Artificial Intelligence which treat the process as a black box.
