Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue of Materials is devoted to “Structural Design and Mechanical Properties of Fiber Composites” to develop structural applications for textile fiber composite materials, fundamental approaches for analysis and design for tensile, shear, and flexural design are needed; the nature of fiber composite materials, the conventional fibers and nanoscale fiber composite lie in chemistry and physics in fibers and textiles, high-performance fibers and composites, carbon nanotube fibers and graphene fibers, multifunctional and multi-material fibers, environmentally friendly fibers, and fiber-related materials. This Special Issue aims to encourage the exchange of ideas among material scientists, energy/environmental/biomedical researchers, engineers, and other researchers who are active at the frontiers of all fiber-related fields. The latest knowledge on advances in theoretical, experimental, and structural design and analysis of fiber composites is also welcome.
Potential topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: polymer materials in the application of composite materials; functional fiber composite materials preparation and characterization; carbon fiber and its composite; fiber-reinforced composites; organic fiber composites; modification of chemical fibers and polymer materials; laboratory testing methods; laminated materials; nanotechnologies in fibers and polymers; design, fabrication, and application of nanofibers; natural fibers and biomimetic polymers; smart fibers; textiles; and wearable intelligent devices.
There are no particular restrictions on the thematic areas of this Special Issue as long as the submissions are related to the structural design and analysis of fiber composites. The readers and authors of Materials are encouraged to send their latest research studies in these areas, with an emphasis on experimental validation and empirical proof for all areas related to the structural design and analysis of fiber composites.

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. Materials 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.
