Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are seeking submissions for a Special Issue of Machines entitled "Advances in Power Electronics for Electromechanical Energy Conversion and Drive Systems".
Today, power electronics circuits play a critical role in numerous applications, such as power supply, renewable energy systems, electrical vehicles, industrial systems, consumer appliances, electrical drive systems, etc. Therefore, new research focusing on power electronics circuits is highly desirable. Furthermore, identifying new and improved control strategies for power electronics circuits to enhance dynamic/steady-state performances is extremely important.
The aim of the present Special Issue is to compile original and high-quality papers and review articles which propose new/enhanced power electronics circuits for energy conversion and drive systems. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- AC–DC, DC–DC, and DC–AC power converters;
- Two/multi-level power electronics converters;
- Renewable energy systems including wind, photovoltaic, etc.;
- Electric drive systems;
- New topologies and applications for power electronic converters;
- Electrical machines and power electronics in electrical vehicles;
- Observers and compensation in model mismatches.
This Special Issue will present cutting-edge research results in these emerging fields as a basis for the reliable and efficient operation of power electronics in electromechanical energy conversion and drive 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 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. 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.
