Advances in Modal Testing, Nondestructive Testing and Structural Health Monitoring
This special issue belongs to the section "Building Structures".
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to summarize the recent advances in modal testing, nondestructive testing and structural health monitoring (SHM), considering the various approaches that have been evolved and put forward for application in mechanical and aerospace engineering. New simulation approaches have also experienced extensive studies for their use in structural dynamic analysis, such as algorithm-based structural optimization. This Special Issue also welcomes investigations into algorithm development, deep learning, signal processing, data management and so on. High-quality investigations regarding modal testing and nondestructive testing based on the applications of mechanical and aerospace engineering are encouraged, as are reviews summarizing their advances over recent years.

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. Buildings 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.
