Rotor Dynamics: Theoretical Analysis, Computer and Experimental Modelling, Measurements

Dear Colleagues,

Rotors and rotating parts are important, oft-used, and highly loaded components of various machines and machine devices. This Special Issue is devoted to their theoretical analysis, computer and experimental modeling, and to the realization of measurements in the field of rotor dynamics. The goal is to present the latest trends in theoretical research, development, monitoring, vibration investigation, fatigue and service life analysis, use of new materials and technologies, new areas of their application, and new designs, manufacturing, operation conditions, and maintenance processes. The presented articles will contribute to the work of researchers, academic workers, and engineers in the fields of mechanical, material, electrical, and control engineering, aerospace engineering, and aeronautics. The goal is for the latest ideas to conduce to the development of knowledge in classic and newly emerging areas, such as flywheels for energy storage, energy harvesting, cryogenic machines, or micro and nano rotor dynamics.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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-anonymized 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.
