Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, much progress has been achieved in aeronautics and near space. Different kinds of aircrafts, such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), Drones, civilian aircraft, military aeroplanes, near-space airships, high altitude balloons, solar-powered unmanned aerial vehicles, missiles, and hypersonic vehicles have extensive application potentiality and superiority in civilian use and military mission.
This Special Issue will provide an overview of the most recent advances in applied sciences of aeronautics and near space. This Special Issue aims to provide selected contributions on advances in the understanding of aeronautics and near space science, vehicle design theory and applications.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
- General design method of flight vehicles;
- Multidisciplinary optimization approach;
- Aerodynamics and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation;
- Structural analysis and optimizations;
- Development of surrogate models;
- Advanced energy;
- Propulsion system;
- Simulation of flight dynamics;
- Flight control methods;
- Trajectory prediction and control;
- Applications of machine learning;
- Noise prediction and control;
- Manufacturing sciences;
- Atmospheric environment.

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. 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.
