This Special Issue focuses on computational detailed studies (simulation, modeling, and calculations) of the structures, main properties, and peculiarities of the various nanomaterials (nanocrystals, nanoparticles, nanolayers, nanofibers, nanotubes, etc.) based on various elements, including organic and biological components, such as amino acids and peptides. For many practical applications in nanoelectronics., such materials as ferroelectrics and ferromagnetics, having switching parameters (polarization, magnetization), are highly requested, and simulation of dynamics and kinetics of their switching are a very important task. An important task for these studies is computer modeling and computational research of the properties on the various composites of the other nanostructures with polymeric ferroelectrics and with different graphene-like 2-dimensional structures. A wide range of contemporary computational methods and software are used in all these studies.

In 2019, we sent out a call for submissions to a Special Issue of Marine Drugs entitled “Marine Chitin 2019”, and we are pleased that this issue has now been published. Over 16 high-impact papers were included in this issue, which we now plan to publish as a book. In addition, we now seek to publish a further Special Issue of Marine Drugs, “Marine Chitin 2020–2021”. As before, we plan to produce an authoritative and exciting issue that will encompass breakthroughs in scientific and industrial chitin and chitosan research. Significant advances in chitin and chitosan research have been made since the 1970s, and current overviews in recent publications involving chitin and chitosan research advances are in need of an update.
