Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Noise and mechanical vibration belong to negative environmental factors in many cases. They can have an adverse effect on human health, accuracy of manufacture, service life of processing equipment and tools, labor protection and so on. For these reasons, it is necessary to eliminate undesirable noise and mechanical vibration by appropriate means. There are different possibilities to reduce excessive noise and mechanical vibrations.
The aim of this Special Issue is to develop advanced material structures for noise and vibration damping. The articles presented in this Special Issue will cover various topics that have a significant influence on sound absorption and mechanical vibration damping of material structures, ranging from but not limited to manufacturing technologies of materials, composite and multilayer structures, mathematical simulations and experimental investigation of vibroacoustic properties, production efficiency, mechanical properties, and practical applications of advanced material structures, among others. Topics are also open to utilization of different types of recycled materials for these purposes, which can be also beneficial to our environment.

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. Materials 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.
