Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We are inviting submissions to the Special Issue on Advances in Intelligent Bridge: Maintenance and Monitoring.

In the landscape of infrastructure engineering, bridges stand as critical assets essential for transportation and urban development. However, as these structures age and are subjected to environmental and load stresses, their maintenance and monitoring become increasingly challenging. Intelligent technologies present opportunities to revolutionize how we approach these challenges. Intelligent bridge maintenance and monitoring encompass a range of cutting-edge technologies such as advanced sensor systems, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and big data analytics. These technologies enable real-time data collection and analysis, predictive maintenance, and informed decision-making. These approaches improve the longevity and reliability of bridge structures and also reduce bridge failure risks. In this Special Issue, we expect authors to contribute their insights, studies, and innovations in this field. Submissions may cover a range of topics including, but not limited to, the development of new sensor technologies, AI algorithms for structural health monitoring, automated inspection techniques, advanced materials for bridge repair and reinforcement, and case studies demonstrating these technologies in real-world scenarios.

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. Applied Sciences 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 2400 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.
