Mathematical Modelling and Multi-Criteria Optimisation in Engineering

Scientists, engineers, and economists try to understand, develop, and optimise physical objects, systems, and processes. To make this possible, they must model them as complex systems composed of multiple and diverse elements. Thus, well-built mathematical models are at the heart of many modern engineering, scientific, and financial solutions. They allow you to conduct complex calculations and computer simulations for improving design and operation and obtains optimal solutions within a multi-criteria approach.

The aim of the Special Issue is bringing together the latest research achievements of scholars studying and developing mathematical models and multi-criteria optimisation methods and tools in science, engineering, and economics.

Primarily, this issue focuses on the latest and innovative solutions in the fields of:

• Safety and reliability modelling and optimisation of systems and processes;
• Transportation, computer and social network modelling and optimisation;
• Transportation systems modelling and optimisation;
• Applications of computational mathematics, including methods of artificial intelligence in science, engineering and economics;
• Business processes modelling and optimisation;
• Financial processes and systems modelling and optimisation;
• Mathematical modelling and optimisation of economic processes;
• Models, methods and algorithms of multi-criteria optimisation for scientific, engineering and economics applications.

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.
