Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite you to explore fluid–structure interactions (FSIs), which is a crucial area in engineering. Join us in unraveling FSIs’ complexities and the advancing research in aerospace, civil, mechanical, biomedical, and marine engineering, and in understanding many symmetry phenomena.
This Special Issue aims to delve into the intricacies of fluid–structure interaction (FSI), encompassing an exploration of the bidirectional coupling between fluid flows and solid structures. It seeks to investigate phenomena like the symmetry observed in wake flows behind vibrating structures and the impact of aerodynamic forces. With a dedicated focus on addressing the complexities introduced by advancing technology, we invite contributions that tackle challenges such as navigating intricate geometries, integrating fluid and structural solvers, and confronting extreme conditions. Through the advancement of numerical methods and experimental techniques, as well as fostering interdisciplinary collaboration, this Special Issue endeavors to push the boundaries of FSI research and applications in alignment with the scope of Symmetry.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following: fluid–structure interactions, complex aerodynamic forces, numerical methods, experimental techniques, fluid dynamics, AI-based flows and control, and energy harvesting from flows.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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. Symmetry 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 2400 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.
