Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The study of ships and underwater vehicles is of great value to the oceanography field, with their movement dynamics being one of the key objects of study. The movement of ships and underwater vehicles involves transient and strong impacts, large deformations, movement instability, multiphase flows, structural damage, and other complex nonlinear mechanical difficulties, representing a great challenge for theoretical analysis, numerical computation, and experimental research.
This Special Issue is dedicated to research on the movement dynamics of ships and underwater vehicles. It will focus not only on the research methods and new technologies related to these vehicles’ movement dynamics but also on the mechanical characterization of complex multiphase flows, impact loading and structural responses, wave loading, near-free cavitation flow, and multi-vehicle interaction.

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.
