Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Any fluid with internal microstructure can be identified as a micropolar fluid. Such fluids consist of rigid, randomly oriented particles in a mother liquid carrier. Characteristic examples of micropolar fluids are colloidal suspensions, liquid crystals, ferrofluids, and blood. The applications of micropolar fluids in engineering and biomedicine are numerous, varying from friction reduction to heat transfer control. Moreover, external electric and magnetic fields can be applied on micropolar fluid flows, which extends the number of possible applications. This Special Issue on the “Analysis and Integration of Micropolar Fluid Systems” seeks high-quality works focusing on the latest novel advances regarding the modeling, simulation, optimization, and control of all kinds of micropolar fluids and systems. The topics within the scope of the issue include, but are not limited to, following:
- Mechanics and dynamics of micropolar fluids.
- Physical properties of micropolar fluids.
- Heat and mass transfer mechanisms of micropolar fluid flows.
- Electrohydrodynamics and magnetohydrodynamics of micropolar fluid flows.
- Instabilities, energy cascade, and turbulent motion.
- Simulation and experimental studies on all the above mentioned topics.

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. Processes is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2400 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.
