Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue covers research topics related to the design and analysis of offshore structures. All theoretical, analytical, numerical, and experimental research, as well as review papers and case studies of engineering applications for offshore structures, are warmly invited. Various offshore structures can be included, such as fixed, floating, movable, jack-up, and hybrid. This Special Issue aims at gathering the most promising research in this area. Contributions focused on new challenges are particularly encouraged. A rapid reviewing process and open-access publication will be provided for high-quality papers on the following topics:
- Hydrodynamic analysis of offshore structures;
- Structural design and analysis of offshore structures;
- Mooring system analysis;
- Local strength analysis of welded joint
- Hydroelastic analysis of very large floating structures;
- Structural health monitoring of offshore structures;
- Reliability-based structural design and analysis;
- Fluid–structure interactions;
- Structure–soil interactions;
- Transportation and installation analysis of offshore structures;
- Fire and explosion analysis of offshore structures;
- Fatigue and fracture analysis of offshore structures.

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. Journal of Marine Science and Engineering is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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.
