Mathematical Modeling in Biomechanics and Mechanobiology

Dear Colleagues,

State-of-the-art problems of the biomedical research-based industry require multidisciplinary skills in merging complementary knowledge from different fields. The critical thinking of biomechanics and mechanobiology applications provides the right emphasis to handle scientific and technological challenges able to foster an effective translation towards the clinical world. In such a scenario, biomedical imaging, theoretical biology, biomechanics, mechanobiology, computational modeling, and numerical simulation are all necessary ingredients of such complex challenging problems. A solid international network on theoretical and applied biomechanics provides the fecund humus in which young scientists can find their research line in a robust epistemological framework.

The purpose of this Special Issue is to gather a collection of articles reflecting the state-of-the-art in different fields of Mathematical Modeling in Biomechanics and Mechanobiology, offering a wide and rigorous perspective. New synergies are needed to face the urgent challenges connected with healthcare social problems and sustainability through integrated multidisciplinary approaches. This special issue is linked to the Advanced International School on “Imaging, Modeling and Simulation in Biomechanics and Mechanobiology” (http://www.unicampus.it/eng/current/imaging-modeling-and-simulation-in-biomechanics-mechanobiology).

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. Mathematics 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.
