Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Fluid physics is a cornerstone of aerospace science and engineering, fundamentally shaping the performance, efficiency, safety, and sustainability of flight systems operating across atmospheric, near-space, and space environments. From aerodynamic design and propulsion to high-speed compressible flows and multiscale transport phenomena, recent advances in theoretical analysis, computational methodologies, and experimental techniques have greatly enhanced our capacity to understand, model, and predict complex fluid behaviors across a broad range of spatial and temporal scales. Inspired by the themes of the Tenth International Symposium on Physics of Fluids (ISPF10), this Special Issue seeks to provide an international platform for the dissemination of high-quality research that addresses both fundamental and applied challenges in modern fluid physics.
This Special Issue welcomes original research articles and comprehensive review papers that will contribute to the advancement of fluid dynamics in aerospace and related interdisciplinary fields. Submissions that emphasize novel physical mechanisms, advanced numerical frameworks, high-fidelity experiments, and cross-disciplinary integration are particularly encouraged.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Fundamental fluid physics and theoretical developments;
- Computational fluid dynamics and advanced numerical methods;
- Experimental fluid dynamics and diagnostic techniques;
- Micro-/nano-scale flows and multiscale transport phenomena;
- Biological fluid dynamics and soft matter flows;
- Aerospace engineering applications and complex flow systems;
- Emerging and interdisciplinary topics in fluid science.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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.
