Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nonlinear waves are widely present in both nature and in artificial systems. Examples of such waves are surface gravity waves, surface capillary waves, internal waves in the ocean and atmosphere, Rossby waves in the ocean, and plasma waves. The most famaous example of a model system for such waves is the celebrated Fermi–Pasta–Ulam-–Tsingou chain introduced in the fifties in Los Alamos Lab to study the heat propagation in crystals.
The first numerical simulation of nonlinear waves was the numerical experiments conducted by Fermi, Pasta, Ulam, and Tsingou on their chain in Los Alamos. Numerical experiments of nonlinear waves are carried out ever since. We went a long way since then, with multiples CPUs, multiple cores, GPUs, and even quantum computers.
In modern times, numerical experiments are even seen as a legitimate replacement for real-life experiments.
This Special Issue will provide an opportunity to share modern cutting-edge research on modelling nonlinear waves on modern computers to gain insights into the nonlinear wave propagation and interactions.
The deadline for submission is 15 May 2023.

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. Fluids 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.
