Fuzzy Sets, Simulation and Their Applications

Dear Colleagues,

Various uncontrollable factors, such as a global pandemic, geopolitical instability, climate change, and others, have impacted contemporary business operations. With this complexity of the socioeconomic environment, fuzzy sets and simulation represent two fundamental methods to design and study complex systems in engineering, medicine, meteorology, manufacturing, economy, and management. Fuzzy sets could have the capability to represent and tackle vagueness and imprecise information. Modeling and simulation can avoid risks and reduce costs and failures associated with experimentation in the real system. Thus, fuzzy sets and simulations are welcomed more and more by both scholars and practitioners. This Special Issue aims to compile new and recent developments in methodologies, techniques, and applications of fuzzy sets and simulation for various practical problems and demonstrate the challenging issues of these concepts. We invite researchers and practitioners to submit original research and critical survey manuscripts in the fuzzy set and simulation techniques, methodologies, mixed approaches, and research directions pointing to unsolved issues.

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. Axioms is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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.
