Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is a well-established fact that demand for mechanical systems’ reliability, durability, and safety of exploitation is increasing. For economic reasons, shorter design time, cost reduction, longer exploitation period, and minimization of necessary inspections and repairs are receiving increasing attention.
Mechanical structures are essential components of all systems that produce, convert and transmit energy. Frequently, mechanical subsystems represent an integral part of complex systems, while their operation determines efficiency, reliability, and durability of entire systems. In the energy sector, faults of complex systems can be diagnosed by identifying parameters of mechanical subsystems. In turn, the properties of mechanical subsystems can be identified by testing other subassemblies, e.g., electrical, magnetic, acoustic, etc. In recent years, the scope of challenges related to the interactions of mechanical structures of machines with semiconductor devices and microprocessors, as well as measurement and control systems with high dynamics and precision, has increased. Therefore, recently great attention has been paid to the scope and accuracy of such systems’ modelling while the issues of novel design, manufacturing and maintenance methods remain open.

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.
