Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Materials are the foundation of human development, and high-performance cement and concrete are materials which can improve the quality of building materials. Therefore, this Special Issue is intended for the presentation of recent technologies and applications of high-performance cement and concrete. Areas include but are not limited to the development history of materials research and application, material property design theory and optimization methods, eco-friendly high-performance cement and concrete, and future development of high-performance cement and concrete.
This Special Issue will publish high-quality, original research papers in the overlapping fields of:
(1) Development history of materials research and application:
- Research history of high-performance cement and concrete;
- Application history of high-performance cement and concrete;
(2) Material property design theory and optimization method:
- High mechanical properties;
- High carbon capture and sequestration;
- High durability;
(3) Eco-friendly high-performance cement and concrete:
- High-performance cement and concrete made by waste resources;
- Recovery and utilization of high-performance cement and concrete;
- The effect of concrete on the environment;
(4) Future development of high-performance cement and concrete:
- Design theory of material properties based on artificial intelligence method;
- Intelligent construction technology for high-performance cement and concrete;
- Cement-based materials used in Lunar and Martian construction.

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. Applied Sciences 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 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.
