Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Ultrasound is a rapidly evolving technology with a multitude of recent applications due to recent advances in material technology. This recent ultrasonic technology developments include: i) new materials and components; ii) wave propagation and associated phenomena; and iii) types of measuring techniques. These new ultrasound applications can be divided into low- and high-intensity groups (i.e., power, energy or amplitude). Usually, low-intensity applications using both low and high frequencies are used in NDT, while high-intensity applications using both low and high frequencies are used in cleaning operations associated with sono chemistry. In this Special Issue of Acoustics, we are soliciting manuscripts on recent advances in ultrasound technology.

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. Acoustics is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly 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 1600 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.
