Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The study of how air flows around objects is known as aerodynamics. It is perhaps the most well-known application of CFD. Design engineers, aerospace engineers, research labs and industries all employ CFD to reduce air drag and friction while boosting product efficiency. Aside from the ability to build aerodynamic products without having to invest in a large number of physical prototypes, CFD allows engineers to test extremely modest modifications to their design to maximize performance before manufacturing. It aids in the understanding of complex flows surrounding different classes of objects and has a wide range of applications. We have organized this Special Issue to collect the relevant studies applied to the use of computational fluid dynamic techniques in applied aerodynamics. The topics include but are not limited to CFD for Unsteady Aerodynamics; Incompressible–Compressible Aerodynamics; Turbulence; Boundary Layer; Meshing and Modeling; Adaptive Aerodynamics; High-Performance Computing-based CFD; Insect Aerodynamics, etc. We look forward to your high-qualified contributions, especially those relevant to the CFD vision 2023 from physical modeling, algorithms, modeling and meshing and knowledge extraction to MDAO (petascale towards exascale).

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.
