Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is intended to cover symmetry and asymmetry phenomena occurring in real-life problems. Symmetry and structural regularity are essential concepts in many natural and man-made objects and play a crucial role in problems solutions. While the complexity and risks inherent in problem solution models, along with different indicators of success and failure, may contribute to the difficulties in their performance evaluation, and, generally multiple solutions exist. The existence of information asymmetry also causes difficulties when achieving optimal solution. Therefore, various solution models can be proposed as integrated tool to find a balance between components of sustainable global development, i.e., to find symmetry axe with respect to goals, risks, and constraints to cope with the complicated problems. We invite authors to submit their theoretical or experimental research presenting engineering and other problem solution models dealing with symmetry and asymmetry of different types of information.

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. Symmetry 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.
