Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Biomimetics has been a hot research topic and a focused technical trend in recent years, with many significant theories and methods developed from intelligent computing to robotics, and finally reaching engineering applications. In this Special Issue, we focus on biomimetic methods in vibration control and related R&D topics, including, but not limited to:
- Bio-inspired mechanisms;
- Bio-inspired structures;
- Bio-inspired passive vibration isolation;
- Bio-inspired active vibration control;
- Bio-inspired nonlinear dynamics;
- Vibration metamaterials;
- Acoustic metamaterials;
- Energy harvesting systems;
- Vibration sensors;
- Locomotion mechanism of robots.

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. Biomimetics 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 2200 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.
