Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Engineering structure performance that reduces the risk of earthquake damage is an important issue for both scientists and consumers.
The seismic performance of engineering structures depends not only on the material, construction quality, and seismic design, but also on the seismic performance assessment, as an example.
The aim of modern methods of seismic performance assessment is to conduct theoretical analysis, numerical simulation, and experimental testing of materials, components, and parts of or full structures in order to promote the performance of engineering structures with widely understood safe, economical, environmentally friendly, and energy-saving properties.
This Special Issue will be dedicated to new perspectives in the seismic performance assessment of engineering structures.
Topics that will be discussed in this Special Issue will focus not only on modern methods and technologies for improving the seismic performance of engineering structures, but also on the verification of their performance with modern experimental testing, numerical simulation, and hybrid testing or simulation.

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. Applied Sciences 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 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.
