Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on the forming of materials, including metallic sheets, composites, and metallic glasses. It covers processes such as hot strip rolling, rotational molding, compression molding, and thermoplastic molding. The scope includes the simulation and optimization of these forming processes, the characterization of material behavior during deformation, and the development of predictive models using data-driven and physics-based approaches.
