Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Analysis and design of coastal and offshore structures is an equally demanding and challenging task. Accuracy of the calculated responses is required at a maximum level, while computational cost is very important especially when we approach the design phase and a big number of analysis cycle iterations for a large number of operational and extreme environmental conditions needs to be performed. At the same time and in a growing rate, monitoring technologies are used for both structural health as well as marine environment process observations.
In this context, this Special Issue invites original scientific contributions on topics related to numerical analysis methods and tools of offshore and coastal structures covering the broad spectrum of related analysis, monitoring technologies, and/or response diagnosis of offshore and coastal structures, monitoring technologies of marine environmental characteristics, integration and update of numerical predictions with monitoring data, real-time predictions and/or forecasting in the marine environment, and digitalization of data for offshore and coastal structures.

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.
