Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is our great honor to contact you from the Editorial Board office of the journal Water. We would like to invite you to contribute to a Special Issue entitled “Research on the Interaction of Water Waves and Ocean Structures”, for which the deadline is October 31, 2022.
The aim and scope of the Special Issue is to invite paper contributions on recent developments and applications relating to the interaction of water waves and ocean/coastal structures. In recent years, with the increasing demand for coastal protection and marine resources, artificial structures have been established on the coast as well as in the ocean. These structures are constantly impacted by waves and currents. Under structural influence, the behavior of waves becomes more complex; therefore, the issue of water waves interacting with structures has become an important and challenging research topic. We invite experts and scholars in this field to submit their related theoretical, numerical, and experimental research on the interaction of water waves and various types of artificial or natural structures for possible inclusion in this Special Issue of Water.
Feel free to contact us if you have any questions.
Best regards,
Dr. Chih-Hua Chang
Prof. Dr. Ruey-Syan Shih
Prof. Dr. Der-Chang Lo

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. Water 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.
