Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Internal combustion engines are used in many short- and long-distance transportation vehicles, as well as in many stationary energy devices. Efforts to reduce the emission of harmful compounds in engine exhausts result in the use of various design solutions that reduce the amount of harmful compounds. These require bench and in-service testing. A significant problem is ensuring the quality of engine components at the manufacturing stage as well as in the supply chain. Furthermore, a current issue is the carbon footprint created during the production of engine components. These problems apply to both spark-ignition and compression-ignition (diesel) engines.
The topics of this Special Issue will cover issues of the construction, testing, and application of the latest internal combustion engines and all issues related to this subject.

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.
