Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is a pleasure to announce the 2nd edition of this Special Issue “Advanced Methodologies and Technologies in Structural Modelling, Identification and Monitoring of Existing Structures”. Both methodologies and technological advancements are welcome, as well as specific laboratory or in situ experimental studies or validations. The contributions can focus on the scale of material or structural modelling.
The topics of applications will include (but are not limited to):
- Damage Detection;
- Modelling of Damages, Fractures, Defects and Cracks;
- Dynamic Identification;
- Inverse Problems in Structural Engineering;
- Structural Modelling and Model Updating;
- Machine learning in SHM;
- Sensor Network, Optimal Sensor Placement and Instrumentation Design;
- Sensor Technologies;
- Remote 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. Buildings is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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.
