Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue seeks to explore and highlight cutting-edge advancements and recent developments in soil mechanics analysis and its application in geotechnical engineering. Hence, contributions that showcase novel techniques, methodologies, and technologies that push the boundaries of traditional approaches are welcomed.
The scope of this Special Issue encompasses a wide range of novel topics that includes but is not limited to new laboratory testing methods, advanced numerical modeling techniques, in situ monitoring technologies, remote sensing applications, and data-driven and sustainable approaches for soil mechanics analysis in geotechnical engineering.
The focus is on exploring how these themes can enhance our understanding and knowledge of soil behavior, improve site characterization, enable more accurate predictions of soil responses, and ultimately contribute to the design and construction of safer and more efficient geotechnical projects.
Authors may submit their contributions to this Special Issue as original research papers, review articles, case studies, or technical notes that explore the theoretical foundations, practical implementations, and real-world applications of recent trends in soil mechanics analysis techniques. The ultimate goal is to promote knowledge exchange, inspire collaboration, and drive further advancements in the field while also benefitting the geotechnical engineering community and promoting sustainable and resilient infrastructure development.

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.
