Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
One of the states of matter is liquid. Liquids are not only the basis of life on Earth but also an important material used in various fields of science and technology. Developing sensors to analyze and control their properties is relevant from both a fundamental and practical point of view. Acoustic methods are among the most commonly used techniques for creating these devices. The Special Issue of Sensors entitled “Development, Investigation and Application of Acoustic Sensors for Liquid Medium and Phase Transition Characterization” intends to present original research and critical review articles covering recent advances in all aspects of the development, production, testing, and application of acoustic sensors and hydroacoustic devices. It will allow researchers to publish their latest achievements in the design, fabrication, modeling, testing, characterization, and application of selective, small-sized, cost-effective, and high-performance acoustic sensors for liquid characterization and hydroacoustic purposes.
Papers dealing with one or several of the following aspects will be considered for publication:
- Operating principles of various types of liquid acoustic sensors and hydroacoustic devices;
- Design and production of various types of liquid acoustic sensors and hydroacoustic devices;
- Characterization of electrophysical properties of liquid by acoustic sensors;
- Application of liquid acoustic sensors in various fields of science and technics;
- Acoustic sensors for detection of phase transition from gas or solids state into liquid state;
- Hydroacoustic platforms—a combination of signal processing and sound propagation in liquid

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. Sensors 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.
