Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Recently, numerical modeling has played an important role in the study of fluid–structure and wave–structure interactions. Numerical models (i.e., Lagrangian, finite element, or volume of fluid methods, etc.), if validated against experimental or field data, could be of great help in modeling real situations and selected parts of coastal and offshore structures, including floating bodies.

The purpose of this Special Issue is to collect research papers, extended review works, and work involving technical applications concerning coastal and offshore engineering problems related to fluid–structure interactions. Novel techniques, code optimization, and validations are encouraged.

Contributions concerning (but not limited to) the following topics are welcome:

  • Hydrodynamics and morphodynamics of interaction with coastal structures;
  • Loads and overtopping on rubble mound and vertical breakwaters;
  • Wave interactions with offshore structures, including floating bodies;
  • Generation and propagation of tsunamis and their impact on coastal structures and reservoir dams;
  • Wave penetration inside ports and interactions with moored ships;
  • Long-period oscillations generated by wind waves interacting with coastal infrastructures;
  • Interactions between fluid and wave energy converters.

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.
