Wave-structure Interaction Processes in Coastal Engineering

This special issue belongs to the section “Oceans and Coastal Zones“.

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

You are kindly invited to submit a manuscript on any aspect of laboratory or field experiments and/or Eulerian and Lagrangian numerical modelling on wave–structure interaction problems, highlighting the most recent breakthrough(s) in the field of coastal engineering.

The papers will be published in a Special Issue of Water, with the main aim being to present the state-of-the-art knowledge on the interaction between water waves (regular, irregular, solitary and tsunami) and structures in fixed and mobile beds such as breakwaters, groins, pipelines, risers, quays, jetties, offshore platforms, renewable energy devices, wind turbines, etc. to researchers and practitioners.

The content of the paper is at your discretion, but an overview of a particular topic of research in your area of expertise and an exposure of the current and future challenges associated with these topics would be particularly valuable.

Prof. Dr. Francesco Aristodemo
Prof. Dr. Marcello Di Risio

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-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Water 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.
  • e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
