Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Vibration is inevitable in every machine, mechanical system, and structure due to the application of various excitation forces. The modeling, analysis, and identification of mechanical systems and structures are important in predicting their vibration and structural dynamics, as well as for fault diagnostics and damage detection. Furthermore, having an accurate model is crucial for optimizing the performance and controlling the behavior of systems and structures.
In this context, the role of experimental verification becomes paramount. While theoretical approaches provide valuable insights, experimental validation enhances the robustness and applicability of the findings. Experimental verification not only validates the theoretical models but also provides real-world data crucial for a comprehensive understanding of nonlinear mechanical vibration in structural dynamics.
The integration of experimental and theoretical approaches in vibration analysis allows for a more holistic exploration of the dynamic behavior of systems. Researchers are encouraged to submit work that not only advances theoretical frameworks but also incorporates experimental validation to strengthen the reliability and practical applicability of the proposed methodologies.
This Special Issue focuses on publishing breakthrough research in the following areas:
- Linear and nonlinear vibration analysis;
- Experimental and theoretical approaches in vibration analysis;
- Model identification, validation, and verification;
- Finite element model updating in structural dynamics.
We look forward to receiving your submissions and encourage contributions that leverage experimental verification to enhance the depth and significance of the research presented.

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. Machines 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.
