Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Biomechanical measurements, modeling, and simulation in the occupational, industrial, sports, and medical fields are relevant topics in scientific research focused on diverse applications. Many works aim at athletic improvement and adult and child rehabilitation with congenital or acquired pathologies. Computer models designed to analyze movement disorders caused by neurodegenerative diseases are widely recognized by the scientific community. Modeling and specific computational models improve the early detection of the disease, the motor examination of the patient's evolution, and medical care. Parkinson's disease affects millions of people worldwide, progressing slowly in most patients, leading to difficulties with speech and facial expression, rigidity, tremors, gait problems, postural instability, bradykinesia, hypophonia, and dysarthria, among others.
Digital signal processing, image processing, statistics, mathematical models, fuzzy inference systems, machine learning, deep learning and automatic control are examples of areas of interest.

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. Computation 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 1800 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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
