Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Engineering structures experience dynamic responses due to human-induced or natural dynamic loads. Once the loads exceed the structural capacity, it can lead to structural failure, and in severe cases, collapse may occur, resulting in casualties, property damage, and other adverse social impacts. Currently, with the rapid development of artificial intelligence, remote sensing technology, and new materials, the research on structural dynamics and structural risk assessment is developing rapidly. Therefore, this Special Issue aims to analyze the dynamic response of engineering structures and implement sensory monitoring, with the goal of enhancing structural performance through the application of new materials, ultimately striving to improve the stability and service life of engineering structures, including but not limited to engineering structures, such as buildings, transmission lines, bridges, wind turbines, and underground structures. We cordially invite researchers from these fields and other related areas to submit interesting articles on this topic. The potential topics include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Analysis of the dynamic performance of engineering structures;
- New methods and instruments for structural risk assessment;
- Infiltration, corrosion, deformation, and other existing structural damage monitoring methods and reinforcement measures;
- Smart materials for monitoring.

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.
