Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue covers the application of the acoustic emission method. As you know, this technology is already popular as a method for assessing various materials, elements, and structures. Additionally, there is a variety of measuring equipment enabling testing based on acoustic emission. Various solutions for the analysis of signals are also widely used.
The aim of this Special Issue is to develop and discuss new trends in the monitoring of materials, elements, and structures using the acoustic emission method (AE) and other techniques in the field of non-destructive testing (NDT). The need for better control of material condition and process performance is constantly pushing the boundaries of AE, making it possible to achieve significant progress in the correctness of conclusions drawn based on the analysis of test results carried out using the acoustic emission method. Emphasis is on all material systems, including metals, composites, rocks, biological materials, and concrete.
The proposed topics include:
- New technologies in the field of AE sensors;
- Wireless AE systems;
- Correlation of the results of the AE method with the results obtained using other research methods;
- Methods of classifying AE signals;
- Wavelet analysis of AE signals;
- Research on the propagation of acoustic waves;
- Application of the acoustic emission method in testing modern materials;
- Identification of fracture mechanisms of materials.

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.
