Advanced Sensors for Monitoring and Detection in Geotechnical Engineering

Dear Colleagues,

In geotechnical engineering, monitoring and detection technology is the essence of engineering design, long-term safety, and post-disaster reinforcement. In the past decade, with the rapid development of deep-earth and deep-sea resources, the construction and service environment of underground structures have become even more severe, which accordingly poses more challenges for geotechnical testing. Fortunately, benefiting from the emergence of high-performance materials, the invention of new instruments in the field of artificial intelligence algorithms, as well as monitoring and detection technology applied to geotechnical engineering, has led to significant progress in this regard.

In this Special Issue, we sincerely invite you to submit articles exploring cutting-edge research and recent advances in the field of monitoring and detection techniques applied to geotechnical engineering. Theoretical and experimental studies are welcome, as well as comprehensive reviews and survey papers.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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-anonymized 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.
