Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Journal of Marine Science and Engineering is pleased to announce a Special Issue entitled "Structural Modelling, Safety Assessment, and Advanced Material Application of Marine Structures—2nd Edition", which is based on the great success of our previous Special Issue with the same title.
Advanced structural modeling techniques are an important prerequisite for accurately predicting the structural safety and reliability of ships and offshore structures. This Special Issue aims to introduce the latest research in advanced modeling, analysis, and prediction methods for ship and offshore engineering structures, including vibration and acoustic radiation, structural impact resistance, blast damage and protection, fluid-structure coupling, ultimate strength and buckling, fatigue, and the design and analysis of advanced composite structures. With the continuous development of new technologies, new structural forms, and new materials, ships and offshore structures will face complex environmental conditions or new forecasting challenges. This hinders the wide-scale application of advanced equipment and structures. We welcome all kinds of modelling methods, numerical calculations, and experimental analyses of ship and offshore structures, including theoretical modeling and numerical simulation of structural vibration, impact, ultimate strength assessment, buckling analysis, fatigue responses of ship and offshore structures, and cutting-edge research, such as digital twins, active control, new materials, and artificial intelligence applications.

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. Journal of Marine Science and Engineering 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 2600 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.
