Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is a continuation of our previous Special Issue “Advances in Underground Pipeline Technology” (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/applsci/special_issues/Z3HA235JTB). Underground pipelines are critical lifeline infrastructures built in response to urban operation and development. Over the last decade, important improvements have been achieved in the design, construction, and maintenance of urban underground pipelines, especially in terms of new materials, construction equipment and technologies, and basic theories.
With the aim of presenting and discussing case studies, new methods, and research on current advances and future prospects surrounding underground pipelines, this Special Issue invites original submissions of theoretical analyses, computational models, physical experiments, and field tests for pipeline construction and design. Theoretical papers and papers discussing computational methods are welcomed. Practice-oriented papers are also encouraged, particularly case studies of challenging projects in practice.

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.
