Machining Science and Technology publishes original scientific and technical papers and review articles on topics related to traditional and nontraditional machining processes performed on all materials—metals and advanced alloys, polymers, ceramics, composites, and biomaterials.

Topics covered include:

    machining performance of all materials, including lightweight materials

    coated and special cutting tools: design and machining performance evaluation

    predictive models for machining performance and optimization, including machining dynamics

    measurement and analysis of machined surfaces

    sustainable machining: dry, near-dry, or Minimum Quantity Lubrication (MQL) and cryogenic machining processes

    precision and micro/nano machining

    design and implementation of in-process sensors for monitoring and control of machining performance

    surface integrity in machining processes, including detection and characterization of machining damage

    new and advanced abrasive machining processes: design and performance analysis

    cutting fluids and special coolants/lubricants

    nontraditional and hybrid machining processes, including EDM, ECM, laser and plasma-assisted machining, waterjet and abrasive waterjet machining

All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is single anonymized and submission is online via ScholareOne Manuscripts.
