Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

In the current digital era of rapid technological advancement and increasing demand for accuracy and precision in manufacturing, precision measurement systems and technologies play a critical role in innovation across multiple research fields. Measurements, from the nanoscale to large scales, underpin the fundamental accuracy and reliability of scientific discoveries and modern technologies. This issue invites contributions that investigate advances in measurement techniques, instrumentation, data processing, calibration, system integration, etc. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, innovations in sensor technologies, advanced signal processing algorithms, measurement characterisation, uncertainty evaluation, artificial intelligence-driven measurement systems, and interdisciplinary applications of precision metrology. This Special Issue seeks to foster collaboration by disseminating related research, addressing current challenges, and inspiring future directions in the field of precision measurement.

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.
