The abstract submission deadline for the Journal of Thermal Spray Technology (JTST) special issue on Laser Surface Engineering has been extended to November 14, 2025. The relevance of laser-based technologies in surface engineering applications has grown considerably in recent years. Innovation in existing processes has led to an increasingly widespread industrial uptake, and new methods are developing continuously. This special issue aims to highlight the latest advancements in research and applications in laser surface engineering, including but not limited to laser cladding, laser-directed energy deposition (L-DED), and laser remelting.
Dr. Katy Voisey (United Kingdom), Prof. Cheng-Xin Li (China), Dr. Filofteia-Laura Toma (Germany), and Prof. Barbara Previtali (Italy) will serve as guest editors.
Interested authors are strongly encouraged to submit an abstract to Dr. Voisey (Katy.Voisey@nottingham.ac.uk), Prof. Li (licx@xjtu.edu.cn), Dr. Toma (Filofteia-Laura.Toma@iws.fraunhofer.de), and Prof. Previtali (barbara.previtali@polimi.it) for consideration and comments before the preparation of a full manuscript.
Abstract submissions are due by November 14, 2025.
