Advances in Permanent Magnet Motor and Motor Control—2nd Edition

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to share news of the success of our Special Issue of Energies, “Advances in Permanent Magnet Motor and Motor Control”.

We are currently seeking to launch its second volume, “Advances in Permanent Magnet Motor and Motor Control—2nd Edition”.

Permanent magnet motors are extensively utilized in various fields, such as aerospace, new energy vehicle drives, robotics, and household appliances, due to their high power density, torque density, reliability, and efficiency. The increasing demands in application fields continuously drive the performance of permanent magnet motors to new levels. Consequently, research on the design and control of permanent magnet motors has become a hot topic in both academia and industry. The implementation of novel theories, materials, and techniques enables their rapid development, leading to greater interest in research topics including multi-phase motors, multi-harmonic motors, motors with different types of permanent magnets, sensorless control, model predictive control, fault-tolerant design and control, NVH study, and high-speed motor applications.

This Special Issue aims to present the latest and most innovative research on all theoretical and practical aspects of permanent magnet motors.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Permanent magnet synchronous motors;
• Flux modulation motors;
• Multiphase permanent magnet motors;
• Permanent magnet DC motors;
• Superconducting machines;
• High-speed motors;
• Special machines;
• The modeling and simulation of permanent magnet motors;
• Magnetics and field analysis;
• Noise, vibration, and harshness;
• Loss, thermal, and cooling;
• Field-oriented control;
• Direct torque control;
• Sensorless control;
• Model predictive control;
• Sliding mode control;
• Motion control and servo systems;
• Reliability, diagnostics, and tolerance;
• Other areas in permanent magnet motors.

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-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.
