Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We present the launch of a Special Issue of the MDPI journal Sensors devoted to “Acoustic and Ultrasonic Sensing Technology in Non-Destructive Testing—2nd Edition”.
The applications of ultrasonic sensors are extremely varied, ranging from use in the verification of trees in poor condition, owing to their non-invasive qualities, to the production of microfluidic movement by means of slightly focused acoustic waves. They have found broad appeal across diverse disciplines and applications, ranging from use as sensors for guiding and checking for industrial and non-industrial non-destructive testing to biological, medical, and food industry applications.
This Special Issue aims to highlight recent advances in the modelling and development of ultrasound devices and materials. Topics may include, but are not limited to, the following keywords.
Dr. Sergio Castiñeira-Ibáñez
Dr. Daniel Tarrazó-Serrano
Prof. Dr. Constanza Rubio Michavila

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. Sensors 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.

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.
- Reprint: MDPI Books provides the opportunity to republish successful Special Issues in book format, both online and in print.
