This journal publishes research on the mechanical properties, microstructure, and processing of metallic materials and composites. Studies investigate material behavior under various conditions, including wear, corrosion, and high temperatures, and explore methods for enhancing material performance through alloying, composite reinforcement, and advanced manufacturing techniques. The scope also includes the recycling and valorization of industrial residues for material production.
