Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
An important prerequisite for the design, assessment and certification of aircraft and their associated control systems is the quantitative specification of the environment in which the aircraft is intended to operate, for example, atmospheric wind gust. Wind gust is a common atmospheric turbulence in nature; however, it has very complex physical characteristics, including its scale, velocity profile, and power spectral density. Thus, it can affect both the natural atmosphere and human activities through a variety of perspectives. This Special Issue aims to form a comprehensive collection of essays regarding wind gusts in aerospace, including but not limited to gust properties, gust research methods, atmospheric influences, aerodynamic and aeroelastic responses of aircraft and engine, aircraft design considerations, gust alleviation measures, etc. Submissions are encouraged from all researchers engaged in aircraft gust aerodynamics and aeroelastics.

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.
