Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Composite materials have attracted significant attention in various engineering fields due to their unique combination of properties, such as high strength, low weight, and excellent corrosion resistance. The effective design and analysis of composite structures require a comprehensive understanding of their complex behaviour, which can be achieved through advanced numerical modelling techniques. This Special Issue aims to explore recent advancements in the structural design and numerical modelling of composite materials.
The objective of this Special Issue is to provide a platform for researchers and practitioners to share their state-of-the-art findings, novel concepts, and innovative solutions addressing the challenges associated with the design and modelling of composite materials. Contributions are solicited on a wide range of topics, including but not limited to composite material characterization, failure analysis, modelling techniques, multiscale modelling, and experimental validation.
Researchers are encouraged to submit original research articles and review papers that provide new insights into the design and numerical modelling of composite materials.

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.
