Scope of the Journal<br />
The IJMMP publishes contributions on various mechanical, electric, magnetic,<br />
optical, properties of metal, ceramic <strong>and</strong> polymeric materials in terms of the crystal<br />
structure <strong>and</strong> microstructure. Papers treat all aspects of materials, i.e., their<br />
selection, characterisation <strong>and</strong> evaluation in the phase of decision-making in design<br />
<strong>and</strong> manufacturing of a new product. They cover the field of product, design,<br />
improvement of material properties in various production processes. Attention is<br />
also focused on materials from the viewpoint of physical metallurgy. New<br />
technologies, new processes <strong>and</strong> related new materials, mathematical <strong>and</strong> physical<br />
modelling of various processes optimisation <strong>and</strong> control of processes in terms of<br />
microstructural <strong>and</strong> macroscopic material properties are included. Testing <strong>and</strong><br />
characterisation of mechanical <strong>and</strong> physical properties determined with st<strong>and</strong>ard<br />
<strong>and</strong> non-st<strong>and</strong>ard methods are also addressed.<br />

What the experts say<br />
about IJMMP<br />
“Before now, the publication of rigorous <strong>and</strong> insightful<br />
thermal process papers has been a highly fragmented<br />
enterprise with contributions spread over many<br />
journals worldwide. Now with IJMMP, it is possible to<br />
follow the most significant advances in materials<br />
science <strong>and</strong> engineering by reading one journal. These<br />
advances involve bulk thermal processing effects <strong>and</strong><br />
surface engineering as well as advances in emerging<br />
technologies. Content includes science <strong>and</strong><br />
engineering of new materials <strong>and</strong> processes, structure<br />
<strong>and</strong> property characterisation, modelling <strong>and</strong> testing<br />
technologies. This is indeed an important new journal.”<br />
Prof. Dr. George E. Totten<br />

“By following the latest nano, micro <strong>and</strong> macroscopic<br />
techniques for structure analysis of bulk materials as<br />
well as of surface layer properties <strong>and</strong> steadily<br />
developing mathematical modelling software, this new<br />
journal will substantially contribute to deepen the<br />
knowledge in the field of materials science.<br />
Application of this knowledge to different conventional<br />
as well as most modern materials engineering<br />
processes is a special feature of this journal.”<br />
