Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

With the advancement of infrastructure construction in high-erosion areas such as coastal areas and islands, the durability of structures is becoming increasingly important. To improve the durability of the structure and reduce the cost of structural maintenance, the development and application of corrosion-resistant steel is particularly important. High-performance bimetallic steels can balance mechanical properties, corrosion resistance, and cost, having broad application prospects for structures built in high-erosion areas. To further promote the application of high-performance bimetallic steels in the field of civil engineering, this Special Issue focuses on publishing research papers and reviews on the mechanical properties of high-performance bimetallic steel materials and structures.

We welcome papers on topics including, but not limited to, the following:

  • Bimetallic steel;
  • Corrosion-resistant steel;
  • Corrosion mechanism;
  • Stainless steel;
  • Innovative material;
  • Marine structures;
  • Durability and long-term behavior;
  • Mechanical properties;
  • Structural health monitoring;
  • Nondestructive testing;
  • Repair and maintenance strategy.

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. Buildings 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 2600 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.
