Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Friction and impact-induced vibration, which is also known as squeak and rattle, has been one of the important claim issues in the automotive and home appliance industry. Throughout several decades, the causes for friction-induced vibration have been found to be mode-coupling, negative friction-slope, and sprag instability through the complex eigenvalue analysis for the linearized friction-engaged system. By contrast, the vibro-impact problem has been widely studied using nonlinear analysis. Owing to the non-smooth nature of friction and impact, both problems are major subjects in nonlinear vibration analysis. Several approaches such as recurrence analysis and chaos analysis have been implemented to quantify its dynamic characteristics.
In this Special Issue, we will provide a broad range of research from experimental results to theoretical linear and nonlinear derivations for both friction and impact-induced vibration and noise. We are pleased to invite researchers who are specialized in this field and willing to contribute their work. New approaches quantifying the friction and impact-induced vibration are particularly welcome in this Special Issue.

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.
