Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The ‘Advanced Research in Structures and Rocks in Geotechnical Engineering’ Special Issue aims to showcase state-of-the-art research, critical literature reviews, pioneering fieldwork, innovative laboratory investigations, and advanced computational problem-solving in the context of structures in soil and rock. This Special Issue highlights original contributions across a diverse range of topics, including but not limited to shallow and deep foundations, retaining walls, tunnels and underground spaces, embankments, and earth dams, soil and rock slopes, mining and excavation, and blasting. Submissions related to theories, applications, and real-world challenges in Geotechnical Engineering are welcomed. This Special Issue provides a platform for researchers, engineers, and practitioners to present their latest findings and exchange ideas that will drive the future of geotechnical innovation.

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.
