Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Offshore wind energy has entered the stage of large-scale development and plays a critical role in achieving the "carbon peak" and "carbon neutrality" goal. Recently, with the development of exploitation technology, offshore wind power is transitioning from shallow sea to deep sea, with significantly large electricity-capacity potential.
The marine loads on offshore wind turbines are complex; subjected to coupled effects by wind, wave, current and scouring; and occasionally suffer from storm surge, typhoons and earthquakes. Furthermore, large offshore wind turbines usually require an embedment of considerable depth into the seabed to ensure stability, which may involve a rock-socketed construction when geology conditions are complex. Therefore, scientific and technical problems still exist in the construction, design, operation and maintenance of offshore wind turbine.
Therefore, this Special Issue aims to share the multidisciplinary research outcomes from scholars in the field of offshore wind turbines, focusing on, but not limited to, the following areas: geological and construction problems; geotechnical analysis, fluid analysis, integrated analysis and design methods; detection, monitoring, health diagnosis and other related issues during operation; and multidisciplinary academic outcomes coupled with electrical engineering, mechanical engineering and computing technology.

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.
