Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to cover ongoing advances in the development and application of adjoint methods in fluid dynamics. In addition to original research articles, review papers, letters or communications, technical reports, and extended versions of conference papers are likewise accepted.
The focus of this Special Issue is mainly, but not exclusively, on adjoint-based shape design, including properties of adjoint solutions, continuous, discrete and unsteady adjoint implementations, and multidisciplinary adjoint-based optimization of aircrafts, ships, and automobiles.
In addition to these topics, this Issue is open to any contribution concerning the application of adjoint methods to other computational fluid dynamics problems such as error estimation and goal-oriented mesh adaptation, stability analysis, etc.
We hope that this Special Issue can bring together all those working in adjoint methods within the CFD and fluid mechanics community.

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. Aerospace 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.
