Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Aeroacoustics is the study of sound generation by fluid motion or aerodynamic forces interacting with surfaces. Over the last few decades, a vast amount of research in the area of aeroacoustics motivated by tightening airport regulations has resulted in a reduction in overall noise by almost 20 EPNdB despite the increase in aircraft size and weight over that time. However, the volume of aircraft in our skies is still growing, raising overall noise levels and making this a prevalent environmental problem. While Lighthill’s acoustic analogy provided the first analytical means to model and predict jet noise, considerable advances have been made in recent years with regard to novel statistical approaches in analysing jet turbulence. This includes using large-Eddy simulations for turbulence correlation function extraction, wave packet modelling, and more recently machine learning. Flow surface interactions have also advanced in both the mathematical modelling of turbulent flow distortions around a solid body and the statistical modelling of turbulence that uses such models as input.
The ultimate goal of this Special Issue is to explore recent developments in aeroacoustics research, ranging from fundamentals and new applications of aerodynamic noise to the use of reduced-order modelling based on modal decomposition or machine learning algorithms. We aim to shed light on the latest technologies, breakthroughs, and cutting-edge advancements targeting a broad range of aeroacoustics applications, using theoretical, numerical, or experimental approaches. We aim to provide a comprehensive platform for the exchange of knowledge, ideas, and developments for those interested in these areas.
As such, this Special Issue seeks to publish research articles and reviews within the domain of aeroacoustics and sound attenuation, including but not limited to fundamental aeroacoustics, aircraft and vehicle noise reduction, architectural acoustics, and innovations in acoustic materials and designs.
We look forward to your submissions.

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.
