Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Mathematical methods have been applied in various streams of engineering fields. In structural engineering, there are several applications of mathematics tools to analyze or simplify various problems such as finite element analysis of structure, structural state analysis, structural optimum design, etc. It is impossible to carry out any analysis of solid mechanics and structural behavior without the use of basic mathematical methods such as calculus, algebra, and geometry and advanced mathematical theory such as optimization theory, probability and statistics theory, and mathematical programming.
This Special Issue is seeking papers related to the application of mathematical methods in structural engineering. We are looking for research and review articles that address the development of novel mathematical methods and their applications in civil engineering, especially in the structural engineering field. The articles for this Special Issue may cover but are not limited to the following subjects: mathematical programming, mathematical optimization, mathematical modeling, structural optimization, structural health monitoring, computational methods, signal processing, and machine learning. Any work relevant to the topic is welcome.

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. Axioms is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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.
