Design and Control of Advanced Mechatronics Systems

Dear Colleagues,

Research and experiments on mechatronics systems, which are a synergistic integration of mechanical engineering, electronic control, and systems concepts, have contributed significantly to the design of systems, devices, processes, and products. Effective systematic methods are still a challenging topic for the design and control of advanced mechatronics systems—especially for the potential of machine learning and optimal operation in engineering applications. This Special Issue will provide an international forum for professionals, academics, and researchers to present the latest developments from theoretical studies, computational algorithm development, and applications of advanced mechatronic systems.

This Special Issue will accept contributions describing innovative research and developments in “Design and Control of Advanced Mechatronics Systems”. The Special Issue will cover a wide range of disciplines, including mechatronic systems, robotics and advanced machines, automation and control systems, new energy systems, and manufacturing systems. It particularly welcomes those emerging methodologies and techniques which bridge theoretical studies and applications in advanced mechatronic systems. Novel quantitative engineering and science studies may be considered as well.

The proposed Special Issue particularly fits the following scopes of MDPI’s Machines journal:

• Intelligent mechatronics, robotics, automation, and control systems
• Control system modeling and simulation techniques and methodologies
• Industrial automation, process control, manufacturing process and automation
• Manufacturing systems, technologies and applications
• AI, big data, intelligent computation, and their applications
• Signal and image processing and pattern recognition in mechatronic systems
• New energy systems, simulation and optimization
• Fault diagnosis and tolerance of mechatronic systems

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. Machines 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 2400 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.
