Smart Vibration Control Technologies and Structural Health Monitoring Techniques: Theory and Applications
This special issue belongs to the section “Mechanical Engineering“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue will focus on the theory and application of novel vibration control systems and the related structural health monitoring techniques. It will showcase some of the latest efforts advancing the frontiers of vibration control and structural health monitoring. Topics include but are not limited to passive, semi-active, and active vibration control technologies; sensors for structural health monitoring; damage detection and characterization/feature extraction algorithms; data transmission for embedded systems; structural warning systems; validation of structural health monitoring techniques; case studies of vibration controls and health monitoring of structures and infrastructure (bridges, tunnels, pipelines, etc.); model-based structural service life prediction methods; etc.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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.
