Special Issue Information
Dear Colleague,
In the last decades, there has been a growing interest in the interdisciplinary approach of thermodynamics in different subject of science and technology. In particular, thermodynamics is the bases of the energy and power engineering, but, also of the optimisation of the engineering designing. Moreover, in biomedical engineering thermodynamics plays a fundamental role in the analysis of the biosystems for new therapeutic approach, from thermal therapies to pharmaceutical cavitation, from biochemical analysis to the cellular modelling.
This special issue wishes to collect the scientific and technical developments of thermodynamics in science and engineering, in order to spread and share theoretical approach, new modelling for applications, engineering considerations and designing for the use of thermodynamics for the improvement of the present technological level.

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. Inventions 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 1800 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.
