About Actuators
Aims
Actuators (ISSN 2076-0825) provides an advanced forum for the science and technology of actuators and control systems. It publishes reviews (including comprehensive assessments on complete actuator products), regular research papers and short notes. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. There are, in addition, unique features of this Journal:
- Manuscripts regarding research proposals and research ideas will be particularly welcomed.
- Electronic files and software regarding the full details of the calculation and experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary material.
- Manuscripts concerning summaries and surveys on research cooperation and projects (that are funded by national governments) to give information for a broad field of users.
Scope
Actuators covers studies related to the following topics:
- control systems, integration of actuators into control systems
- different types of actuators, including:
- electromechanical actuators
- electromagnetic actuators
- electrodynamic actuators
- fluid mechanical actuators
- pneumatic actuators
- hydraulic actuators
- smart actuators
- efficiency and operational SFW of actuators
