Aims & Scope

The Journal of Materials Engineering and Performance (JMEP) publishes research on all aspects of materials selection, design, processing, characterization, and evaluation. Peer-reviewed original research papers present research and development results of potential archival value and assist in solving current engineering challenges. Topics include state-of-the-art improvements in materials properties through alloying, casting, forming, heat treating, surface modification, coating, fabrication, and more. JMEP encourages submissions that explore relationships among applications, material type, secondary processing, component performance, process control, and performance measurement. Content describes materials characterization by mechanical and physical testing, nondestructive evaluation, metallography, failure analysis, corrosion resistance, chemical analysis, and microanalysis. JMEP ’s scope includes all materials used in engineering applications, as well as trusted and emerging methods and technologies.
