Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue entitled "Advanced Actuators and Magnetic Fluid Systems: Design, Control, and Applications" aims to present high-quality research papers. We focus on novel systems or structures that demonstrate significant enhancement effects, particularly innovative achievements in the fields of magnetic fluid flow and microfluidics. The Special Issue will pay particular attention to cutting-edge research that can enhance the performance of magnetic pumps, seals, and dampers. Authors are encouraged to submit their original designs, control strategies, and application examples to advance the development of this field.
