Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Bubble dynamics and fluid–structure interaction (FSI) represent fundamental yet challenging problems in modern fluid mechanics, governing a wide spectrum of phenomena from single bubble motion to multibubble clusters and their interaction with its nearby boundaries. A comprehensive understanding of these transient multiphysics processes is essential not only for revealing the underlying physical mechanisms but also for advancing the design and performance of marine structure, seabed exploration, and energy systems. Decades of theoretical, numerical, and experimental studies have laid a solid foundation for current high-fidelity modeling and diagnostics, enabling more accurate prediction of structural damage and the development of effective protective strategies for underwater equipment.
The aim of this Special Issue, “Bubble Dynamics and Fluid–Structure Interaction,” is to publish high-quality papers uncovering new mechanisms through theoretical models and advanced numerical and experimental techniques. Contributions are expected to demonstrate innovative methodologies and to elucidate the physical phenomenon governing coupled bubble–fluid–structure processes under transient or extreme conditions.
Topics of interest for this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following:
- New theories of bubble dynamics and FSI;
- Advanced CFD methods for solving multiphase problems;
- Novel experimental method in bubble dynamics and FSI;
- AI+ bubble dynamics and FSI;
- Applications in marine science and engineering;
- Other related research areas.

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. Journal of Marine Science and Engineering 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 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.
