Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Over the past few decades, the railway, an environmentally friendly means of transport resulting in less environmental pollution and less energy use than other means of transport such as cars or aircraft, has been developing rapidly worldwide. As the global railway industry is fueled by the pursuit of higher speed and higher quality of riding comfort, system noise and vibration issues take on growing importance. Therefore, it is important to reduce their impacts as much as possible while not adding unnecessary costs or complications to the construction and operation of the railway.
The aim of this Special Issue in the measurement, modeling, and control of railway noise and vibration is to contain the latest developments in advanced measurements with sensors operating in uncertain environments (e.g., high-speed railway), novel modeling technology for railway vehicle–track coupled system dynamics, and intelligent control techniques for noise and vibration mitigation. Relevant technologies enhancing measurement, improving the accuracy of dynamic models, and achieving a better cancellation performance are desired. Researchers involved in railway noise and vibration should find this particular issue of interest, as it will provide the latest perspective on the state of the art. Potential topics include but are not limited to the following:
- Railway noise and vibration instrument;
- Signal processing and pattern recognition;
- Autonomous measurement systems;
- Health monitoring, inspection, and fault diagnosis;
- Remote sensing technology;
- Machining learning technology;
- Railway vehicle–track coupled system dynamics;
- Measurements of interior noise and train passing-by noise;
- Aerodynamic noise;
- Structure-borne noise and ground-borne vibration;
- Environmental noise and vibration mitigation measures for rail vehicles and track;
- Passive/Active noise and vibration control;
- Intelligent railway technologies;
- Quantification and measurement of passenger experience.

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.
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.
