Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Digital hydraulic control with actuators has gained more attention from researchers because it is safe and flexible to use. Digital technology provides the actuators with the advantages of high precision, high reliability and low pollution and improves the anti-interference ability, controllability, stability and energy saving of the actuators. However, for digital hydraulic control with actuators, the following technical challenges remain to be overcome: ultra-low speed stability, anti-crawling technology, ultra-high speed and low pulsation technology, state integrated perception and modular technology, multi-source condition monitoring and intelligent fault diagnosis technology, integrated displacement/speed measurement technology, hydraulic cylinder digital drive and its associated control technology, the intelligent fault diagnosis and predictive maintenance technology of hydraulic cylinders, etc.

We welcome original research articles, comprehensive reviews, short communications, and perspectives, with topics addressing—but not limited to—the key findings and contributions regarding digital hydraulic control with actuators, including theoretical results and experimental studies and their respective applications.

Papers are welcome on topics that are related, but not limited, to the following areas:

  • Intelligent engineering machinery;
  • Intelligent equipment;
  • Digital hydraulics;
  • Integrated actuator;
  • Digital hydraulic cylinder;
  • Digital hydraulic motor;
  • Electric hydrostatic actuators (EHA).

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. Actuators 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 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.
