Recent Advances in Computational Fluid Mechanics

Dear Colleagues,

Computational fluid mechanics has become an essential pillar in the simulation and analysis of fluid dynamics phenomena across a wide spectrum of scientific and engineering disciplines. With the increasing complexity of physical systems and the demand for high-fidelity simulations, advances in computational algorithms, numerical methods, and multi-physics coupling strategies are playing a critical role in driving innovation in this field. These developments not only deepen our understanding of fluid mechanics but also enhance predictive capabilities in applications ranging from aerospace engineering to environmental modeling.

We are pleased to invite submissions to the Special Issue titled “Recent Advances in Computational Fluid Mechanics”, which aims to highlight recent progress, novel methodologies, and interdisciplinary approaches in the field. This Special Issue welcomes original research articles that focus on the development and application of numerical techniques, including, but not limited to, the finite difference method (FDM), finite volume method (FVM), spectral/finite element method (SEM/FEM), lattice Boltzmann method (LBM), smoothed-particle hydrodynamics (SPH), moving particle semi-implicit method (MPS), moving least-squares method (MLS), and material point method (MPM), as well as high-performance computing strategies, turbulence modeling, multi-phase and reactive flow simulation, and data-driven or machine learning-enhanced computational techniques.

We especially encourage interdisciplinary works that bridge computational methods with experimental validation, theoretical analysis, or emerging data-driven techniques. Review and tutorial articles that provide insight into the current challenges and future trends in computational fluid mechanics are also welcome.

We look forward to receiving your valuable contributions and jointly advancing the frontiers of computational fluid mechanics.

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. Modelling is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly 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 1200 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.
