Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Up to now, the reserves of shallow-buried energies decrease at an amazing speed. The exploitation of deep-buried energies becomes imperative, among which coal-based energies account for a large proportion. It is widely known that coal-based energies play an important role in the social development of human beings. In order to strengthen the capacity in exploiting deep coal-based energies, scientific research groups majoring in coal-related directions from worldwide have conducted many works on the problems encountered in deep exploitation of coal-based energies, such as exploitation method, mineral identification, rock mass properties, engineering responses of rock masses, instability modes of surrounding rocks, collaborative exploitation technologies for associated resources, disaster and its prevention methods, etc. However, it seems difficult to completely remove the problems from the deep exploitation of coal-based energies with conventional theories and technologies. Thus, on behalf of Energies, we invite you to contribute an original research article to a Special Issue on new insights into the deep exploitation of coal-based energies.
This Special Issue aims to showcase the latest scientific and technological achievements in the deep exploitation of coal-based energies for accelerating research communication and technical development.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
- Current situation of the exploitation of deep coal-based energies
- Fundamental development in deep rock mechanics,
- Identification and characterization of the components included in coal-based energies
- Scientific and sustainable exploitation method for deep coal-based energies
- Intelligent equipment applicable to deep exploitation of coal-based energies
- Common disasters existing in the deep exploitation of coal-based energies
- New disaster prevention method in deep exploitation of coal-based energies
- Multiscale investigation on failure mechanisms of the rocks at large depth
- Mechanical characterization and numerical simulation of failure process of deep rocks
- Rock stability improvement method for safe exploitation of coal-based energies

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. Energies 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 2600 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.
