Theory, Method and Engineering Application of Computational Mechanics in Offshore Structures

Dear Colleagues,

Marine energy development is the trend of energy development in the world. The development of marine energy is inseparable from the design, manufacture and application of offshore structures. In order to systematically report the theoretical calculation methods of offshore structures in the process of design, manufacturing, testing and application in the process of marine energy development, this Special Issue aims to collect the research work related to the theory, method and engineering application of computational mechanics in offshore structures. Through this Special Issue, the application scope, frontier, innovative research results and key technical achievements of computational mechanics in ocean engineering will be presented.

This is based on the great success of our previous Special Issue with the same title: Theory, Method and Engineering Application of Computational Mechanics in Offshore Structures. We sincerely invite researchers from enterprises or research institutes to submit innovative and advanced scientific research work, show their research results and serve the development of marine energy.

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. Journal of Marine Science and Engineering 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 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.
