Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
High-quality, original, analytical, computational and/or experimental journal papers are invited on the topics of deterministic and stochastic linear and nonlinear aero-viscoelasticity, and the impact of constitutive and failure material characterization on fluid-structure interactions. The focus of this Special Issue is on the behavior and influence of the material properties on the larger scale response of a structure in a flow as closed loop issues. The material properties may be temperature dependent, stochastic, deterministic, linear, non-linear, or involve failure conditions such as fatigue or visco-plasticity. Particular emphasis should be on how the changing material properties alter the response of the structure to the applied fluid loads. Micro-, meso-, and macro-scale perspectives on the material property behavior are encouraged, and their influence on the resulting structural topology. Applications of these material properties in fluid-structure interactions are also of interest. Applications may include high-polymer composite material flight structures operating at low and high temperatures, metallic structures operating at hypersonic conditions, or biological tissues exposed to fluid flows. These applications may involve systems of nonlinear partial–differential–integral equations; therefore, applied mathematics and numerical solution techniques are of interest. Theoretical, numerical and/or experimental high-quality, original, research papers are welcome. Submission of detailed abstracts is encouraged in advance to ensure alignment of the manuscript topic with the Special Issue themes. The deadline for full manuscripts is December 1, 2021; this is a hard deadline with no extensions contemplated. Please ensure that the manuscript conforms to the submission template. Manuscripts will be rigorously reviewed by 2 to 3 authorities in the field.

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.
