Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Structural health monitoring (SHM), as a technique for monitoring and evaluating structural health status, has been widely concerned and applied in recent years. It can not only monitor the vibration and strain of the structure in real time, but also provide an accurate assessment of the health status of the structure, thus providing important data support for decision makers. The performance evaluation of a structure is an important step to ensure its long-term operation and safety. By using SHM technology, we can monitor the vibration characteristics and deformation of the structure in real time, and provide data support for the performance evaluation of the structure. Reliability analysis is an important means to evaluate the stability of structures under different external loads and environmental conditions. With SHM technology, we can monitor the health status of the structure in real time, identify potential faults and fragile points, and propose corresponding improvement measures to improve the reliability and durability of the structure. Potential topics include, but are not limited to: Structural health monitoring; Performance evaluation; Reliability analysis; Application of new sensor technology in structural health monitoring; Application of machine learning to performance evaluation; The development of nondestructive testing technology and its application in reliability analysis.

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.
