Structural and Earthquake Engineering
This special issue belongs to the section “Civil Engineering“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The focus of this Special Issue is on structural and earthquake engineering, including linear, nonlinear, stochastic, parametric, discrete, and dynamic programming/modelling in these fields. Articles submitted to this Special Issue can also be concerned with the most significant recent developments in computational methods, soft-computing techniques, optimization, evolutionary algorithms, design under uncertainty, generative and parametric design, and their applications in structural and earthquake engineering.
This Special Issue will facilitate the exchange of ideas in topics of mutual interest within the applied science community, sharing advanced numerical methods and software tools.
Dr. Alessandra Fiore
Guest Editor
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.
