Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Research concerning the wheel-rail interaction plays an important role in developing quiet, comfortable and safe high-speed trains. This Special Issue aims to promote the exchange of novel insights into the wheel-rail interaction, including emerging methods, novel models and deep insights into the coupling mechanism of wheel-rail systems. We are particularly interested in works addressing the issues of noise and vibration induced by the wheels and rail. Both the vibroacoustics-related research of train car bodies and the dynamic analysis of wheel-rail systems are welcome. The exact content can be related to methodology validation, numerical simulations, measurements and preliminary novel analyses.

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.
