International Journal of Metalcasting

Aims & Scope

The International Journal of Metalcasting is dedicated to leading the transfer of research and technology for the global metalcasting industry.

The quarterly publication keeps the latest developments in metalcasting research and technology in front of the scientific leaders in our global industry throughout the year.

All papers published in the the journal are approved after a rigorous peer review process.

The editorial peer review board represents three international metalcasting groups: academia (metalcasting professors), science and research (personnel from national labs, research and scientific institutions), and industry (leading technical personnel from metalcasting facilities).
