Fault Diagnosis for Electrical Systems and Power Networks

Dear Colleagues,

We are inviting submissions to the Special Issue on Fault Diagnosis for Electrical Systems and Power Networks.

Electrical systems are an important infrastructure in modern society and play an increasingly important role in the development of the national economy. Power networks can coordinate various forms of energy such as electricity, natural gas, cold and heat to realize safe, low-carbon and efficient operation. Electrical systems and power networks are collectively referred to as integrated energy systems. Integrated energy systems will usually fail due to natural factors, human factors and equipment aging, which will cause huge economic losses and serious social impact. Therefore, it is particularly important to strengthen fault diagnosis technology to ensure the stable and safe supply of energy. Model-based diagnosis and data-driven diagnosis methods, advanced fault location and elimination technology, fault prediction and device protection of electrical systems, data acquisition and monitoring control technology, fault discrimination and fault phase selection of transmission lines, artificial intelligence fault diagnosis methods and the safety and security of integrated energy systems are attracting more and more interest from the research community.

In this Special Issue, we invite submissions exploring cutting-edge research and recent advances in the field of Fault Diagnosis for Electrical Systems and Power Networks. Both theoretical and experimental studies are welcome, as well as comprehensive review and survey papers.

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.
