Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Modern technological systems have evolved to allow high-speed, heavy-load, lightweight, flexible, and extreme-condition operation. However, the associated vibration and noise issues have significantly restricted the system performance. Passive approaches can be explored to handle high-frequency vibration and noise, while low-frequency vibration and noise can be tackled by active approaches. Moreover, from an implementation perspective, metamaterials provide a new avenue towards structural vibration attenuation and noise reduction. This Special Issue will incorporate both active control and passive control, together with their metamaterial implementation, to address noise and vibration issues in mechanical systems. The gap between the three fields will be bridged, providing a unified supplement to the existing literature. Thus, the scope will include:
- New theories and methods for addressing noise and vibration problems in mechanical systems, including active, passive, and semi-active approaches;
- Integration with smart materials and structures to solve noise and vibration problems in industrial systems and/or for novel applications;
- Implementation-associated devices such as new sensing and instrumentation equipment, including new noise and vibration sensors, actuators, field measurement devices, etc.;
- Establishment of sound/noise testing laboratory or development of cutting-edge technologies for new applications.

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. Machines 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.
