Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Those working in the field of diagnostics continuously find new ways to visualise and quantify flow properties in ways that were deemed impractical at some point. These include either optimising already established techniques, or the invention of new methods through the synergy between different disciplines, such as pressure sensitive paints which bring together physics, chemistry, and fluids.
With advancements in the field of photonics, we are now more capable than ever to conduct measurements of fluidic properties at a very high spatial and temporal resolution in a non-intrusive manner. This has led, in recent years, to the development of novel sensing methods and techniques employed in aerodynamics, microfuidics, and biological flows for the measurement of a range of parameters, such as pressure, temperature, oxygen concentration, and glucose level, etc.
The goal of this Special Issue is to bring together novel photonic-based fluidic measurement technologies developed for the biomedical sector, the aerospace industry (including wind tunnel testing), waste water treatment, air quality monitoring, and aquafarming.
Specifically, this Special Issue will cover, but is not limited to, the following areas:
- Microfluidics;
- Biological flows;
- Aerodynamics;
- Automotive;
- Wind tunnel testing;
- Pressure and temperature measurement;
- Optical oxygen sensors.

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. Sensors 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 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.
