Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Marine engineering is at the forefront of digitalization, intelligentization, and green energy transformation. The research directions in marine engineering discussed in this Special Issue have rapidly developed since the early 21st century.
The development of green energy and power systems is pivotal for improving ship performance while concurrently reducing their ecological footprint. Innovations in intelligent perception and autonomous control systems are also high on our agenda, as they promise to automate ship operations, thereby enhancing safety and operational proficiency. Furthermore, the integration of robotics and unmanned systems into ship maintenance, detection, and marine exploration is an area that is rapidly gaining traction. Through such advancements, we can ensure the longevity and reliability of our maritime assets. Equally significant are the efforts directed toward environmental restoration and pollution control, which are fundamental to preserving the integrity of our marine ecosystems. Research into engine combustion and emission control technologies is another critical area for mitigating ship emissions' environmental impact. In addition, the design and manufacturing of novel ships and ocean engineering equipment, as well as the exploration of new energy sources for the ocean, are the focus of innovative marine engineering technologies.
These directions showcase the industry's commitment to technological innovation and environmental sustainability. This Special Issue encourages scholars to contribute their groundbreaking work to the above-evolving field.

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. Journal of Marine Science and Engineering 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.
