Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Aim
This Special Issue, “Computational Methods for Energy Storage”, will be published in the open access, peer-reviewed international journal Computation. It will encompass a wide range of research areas pertaining to energy storage, including thermal, electrical, chemical, and nuclear energy. We welcome original research in various formats, including research papers, reviews, case studies, technical notes, and meeting reports. This Special Issue aims to cover various aspects of energy storage, including fundamental theory, technologies, and applications of computational methods for energy storage applications. We seek theoretical, numerical, and experimental research. Key topics include common storage mediums such as battery technologies (solid-state and lithium-ion batteries), phase change materials, thermo-chemical storage, gravity-based energy storage, and hydrogen technology storage. There is no restriction on the maximum length of papers. Full details of your research should be presented so that the results can be replicated. Numerical research should include details of the method used and comparable results in the literature.

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. Computation 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 1800 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.
