Acoustics and Vibrations Analyses of Materials at Different Scales: Experimental and Numerical Approaches: Volume II

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue aims at providing a broad coverage of recent theoretical, numerical, and experimental approaches to various problems related to acoustics and vibrations. Vibrations can occur spontaneously or be the result of anomalies in materials and structures at different scales. Thus, several methodologies that rely on the evaluation of acoustic behavior and vibrational characteristics of the system can provide excellent insight into its dynamical properties as well as about its progress toward certain damage conditions. Therefore, this Special Issue welcomes research studies that evaluate the vibrational response and assess the state of materials and structures at different scales. Both experimental investigations and theoretical and computational studies are appreciated.

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.
