Advanced Technologies for Precision Measurement

Dear Colleagues,

Measurement is an integral part of science. Without the ability to measure, it would be difficult for scientists to conduct experiments or form theories. Measurement is not only important in science and the chemical industry, but it is also essential in engineering, construction, commerce, and numerous other activities. For example, measurement is vital in precision manufacturing, and coordinated measuring machines and other precision measurement instruments are used to measure components to ensure exact standards are met accurately.

Precision measurement refers to the use of advanced technology and methods to pursue high accuracy under the existing physical framework. With the development of science and technology, more and more advanced technologies for precision measurement have been discovered and applied. In this Special Issue of Applied Sciences, we will consider papers that present new technologies and significant contributions for the promotion of precision measurement.

In particular, the topics of interest include but are not limited to:

• Measurement science;
• Measurement and estimation techniques;
• Measurement data processing and algorithms;
• Measurement instruments;
• Sensors.

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. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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.
