Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The topic of acoustics is assuming an increasingly prominent role in the industrial field. Following more and more stringent requirements in terms of low-emissivity or weight saving, the transport industry in particular has to deal with noise and vibration problems at the preliminary design stage. From such a perspective, the development of effective tools for prediction is a challenge that researchers must face. As a consequence, obtaining accurate information on system responses in the design phase may considerably reduce both computational and experimental efforts. On the wave of the previous Special Issue, the invitation of the editors deals with collecting novel contributions from members of the technical-scientific community who are involved in the advancement of predictive methods and in the study of solutions aimed at optimizing noise. Therefore, we encourage the submission of papers or reports on the development of forecasting tools, innovative materials, passive and active control, and smart systems that can have a significant impact on industrial growth.

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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
