Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue provides a comprehensive exploration of fractal analysis and its diverse applications in materials science. Expected contributions will cover a wide spectrum of fields, including metamaterial characterization, applications in geophysics, medicine, chemistry, physics, mechanics, signal processing, acoustics, ultrasonics, solid and fluid mechanics, porous materials, fractional calculus, and more.
Researchers are encouraged to showcase works illustrating the applicability of fractal analysis in these various domains, highlighting how this approach can contribute to a deeper understanding of structural complexity at different scales. The aim is to foster discussion on current advancements and inspire new and innovative perspectives in these diverse fields.
We eagerly anticipate contributions that unveil the multifaceted nature of fractal analysis and its impact on materials science, providing a platform to explore the frontiers of research in these interdisciplinary domains.
Dr. Zine El Abiddine Fellah
Guest Editor
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. Fractal and Fractional 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 2700 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.
