Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, great efforts have been made to improve coastal and offshore marine engineering following the trends in developing renewable energy in the ocean, with marine geotechnology being one of the most important aspects of this. More advanced models of geohazards and geotechnical analysis on marine structures are proposed to increase reliability and reduce cost and/or risk. These developments require advanced and innovative site investigation technologies and numerical methods to fulfill design requirements.
Considering the needs of nearshore and offshore engineering societies, this Special Issue aims to present the latest developments in advanced and innovative techniques in seabed site characterizations and/or numerical simulations for seabed-based structure analysis or design. Topics related to advanced site characterizations may focus on but are not limited to underwater geophysical methods, sampling technologies, in situ testing, highly efficient geotechnical survey methods, etc. Topics related to advanced numerical methods for seabed-based structure analysis or design could be related to marine foundations, anchors, cables, pipelines, breakwaters, etc. Case studies related to site characterizations and the design of seabed-based structures are also within scope.

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.
