Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to publish high-quality research papers that present the latest advances in coastal hydrodynamics, including numerical modeling, wave-structure interactions, and real-world applications.
Coastal hydrodynamics is a complex and interdisciplinary field that encompasses a wide range of physical processes, such as wave propagation, sediment transport, and coastal morphodynamics. These processes are essential for understanding the coastal environment and its response to natural and human-induced hazards.
Numerical modeling has become an indispensable tool for coastal hydrodynamics research and engineering. Coastal models are used to simulate a wide range of coastal processes, from wave propagation and sediment transport to storm surge and coastal flooding. Wave-structure interactions are another important area of research in coastal hydrodynamics. These interactions can have a significant impact on the design and performance of coastal structures, such as breakwaters, seawalls, and offshore platforms.
This Special Issue invites submissions that address the following topics:
- Advances in the numerical modeling of coastal hydrodynamics;
- Wave-structure interactions, including experimental, theoretical, and numerical studies;
- Real-world applications of coastal hydrodynamics models, such as coastal hazard assessment, coastal engineering design, and marine renewable energy development.
Researchers, practitioners, and engineers working in all aspects of coastal hydrodynamics are encouraged to submit their original research papers to this Special Issue. We look forward to receiving your contributions and making this Special Issue a valuable resource for the coastal hydrodynamics community.

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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
