Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Power electronic parts play a crucial role in all aspects of engineering in both research and industry. Power electronics have important applications in energy conversion and management, electric transportation, industrial automation and drives, smart grids and power quality, consumer electronics, and renewable energy integration, amongst others. Fractional-order control (FOC) extends the classical control theory by allowing controllers to have fractional-order derivatives or integrals. FOC can provide several potential advantages for power electronic-based systems, such as improved transient response, robustness to parameter uncertainties, enhanced frequency response, fractional nonlinear control, and mitigated sensitivity to delay.
This Special Issue aims to collect original research or review articles on recent advancements in the field of fractional-order control of power electronic-based systems to study and improve their robustness, reliability, and other performance metrics.
The topics of interest for this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following:
- New power converter topologies (DC–DC, AC–DC, and DC–AC converters).
- New modeling and control methods for power electronic systems including fractional-order approaches.
- Development of advanced control techniques, including both model-based and data-based methods as well as hybrid methods.
- Optimization-based control in power electronic converters and their applications.
- Fractal, fractional, and chaotic power electronic circuits.

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. Fractal and Fractional 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 2700 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.
