Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Biomechanics is a discipline concerned with the application of the tools, methods, and formalisms of mechanics and automation aiming to study human movement. By dealing specifically with the biological aspects of humans in motion, this discipline concerns the kinematic, mechanical, and control aspects of posture and movement. This discipline promotes a multifactorial approach that allows for an infinity of possible solutions to be envisaged for each motion and posture, thus contributing to the understanding of human mechanics. Biomechanics permits the estimation of human capacities by using the principles of mathematics, functional anatomy, and mechanics to explore and understand biological problems. The advantage of this discipline is that it requires understanding the musculoskeletal system to improve its potential. Taking into account personal factors offers the possibility to choose a particular solution allowing for the optimization of human mechanics. The aim of this Special Issue is to quantify the methodological advances in osteology in clinical situations. This Special Issue is concerned with studying and analyzing biomechanical contributions; bone diseases, including fractures; the interactions between bone and other organ systems, including cartilage, muscle, neurons, joints, and the spine; bone biomaterials; and prostheses.

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. Osteology 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 1000 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
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
