Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The development of powerful techniques for solving coupled problems involving flows with moving boundaries and interfaces has been an important research area in Computational Fluid Dynamics over past two decades. This has been motivated by the fact that a wide range of engineering problems involve moving boundaries. Particularly, this is the case for the CFD problems that contain free surfaces and/or various phases (fluid–gas, fluid–solid, gas–solid). Despite the fact that the main classes of approaches for modeling the evolution of boundaries/interfaces are established (Level Set, Volume-of-Fluid, Lagrangian interface tracking), their application to many problems of industrial interest remains challenging. Often, their application to “real-life” cases requires additional “ingredients” in order to ensure their proper functionality.
The aim of this Special Issue is to collect papers where coupled problems of industrial interest characterized by the presence of moving boundaries are solved. This issue also aims at highlighting and discussing the limitations of the existing methodologies when applied to real-life problems.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
(i) problems involving free surface flows
(ii) multi-material mechanical problems (multiphase, fluid–structure interaction)
(iii) thermo-mechanical problems
(iv) electro-mechanical problems

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. Mathematical and Computational Applications 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 1600 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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
