Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, the deterioration of structures caused by vibration has drawn much attention. Monitoring and reducing structural vibrations in civil engineering provides an effective method for managing civil engineering in full-life-cycle operation and maintenance.
Within this context, lots of algorithms and technologies have been proposed for monitoring and reducing structural vibrations, which also emerge as a promising means for important strategic infrastructure, including long bridges, skyscrapers, etc. Given the current state of quantitative and principled methodologies, it is our pleasure to announce the Special Issue with the theme of “Monitoring and Reducing Structural Vibrations in Civil Engineering”.
This Special Issue aims to publish high-quality, original research papers on cutting-edge research of vibration-based algorithms and technologies. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Vibration analysis of engineering structures;
- Vibration control algorithms and technologies;
- Vibration monitoring of civil structures;
- Vibration signal processing techniques;
- Vibration-based structural health monitoring (SHM) systems;
- Integrated smart material systems and structures.

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.
