Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to showcase recent advancements in fluid dynamics as applied to aerospace engineering. We welcome original research and comprehensive review papers that contribute to the understanding, modeling, and application of fluid dynamics in aerospace systems. The Special Issue will cover both fundamental studies and applied research that enhance aerodynamic performance, flow control strategies, and computational and experimental methodologies. We invite contributions on (but not limited to) the topics of aerodynamic performance and flow physics, aero-propulsive interactions, computational and experimental methods, artificial intelligence and machine learning in fluid dynamics, flow control and optimization, aerospace propulsion and high-speed flows and bio-inspired and novel configurations.
We welcome both technical research papers and review articles that provide critical insights into recent advancements. Submissions should present novel methodologies, significant experimental findings, or comprehensive reviews of emerging topics in aerospace fluid dynamics.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Aerospace is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
