Maritime Engineering, Industry Development Prospects

Dear Colleagues,

The global maritime transport industry operates according to a set of specific laws. The development of digital systems in the marine industry has resulted in the appearance of significant indicators. Today, the ship’s crew is decreasing, the ship’s productivity is increasing, and environmental indicators are being monitored. The development of the industry requires research in various fields of engineering, such as robotics, automation, neural networks, and ecology, amongst others. This research will significantly contribute to the development of the industry as a whole.

This Special Issue provides a platform for academics, scientists, and industry professionals to exchange the most contemporary ideas, techniques, methods, and experiences in the area of ship energy systems, including modelling, optimisation, control, maintenance, safety, autonomy, environmental friendliness, regulatory framework, and sustainability.

Prof. Dr. Sergei Chernyi

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-anonymized 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.
