Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce a Special Issue entitled “Advances in CAD/CAM/CAE Technologies for Modern Manufacturing” in Machines. The aim of this Special Issue is to bring together high-quality contributions in the areas of engineering design, manufacturing and engineering analysis. All accepted papers will undergo rigorous peer review and, upon acceptance, will be published with full open access.

Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Computational design and algorithmic design
  • Intelligent CAD, automated feature recognition, knowledge-based engineering (KBE) and semantic modeling
  • CAD/CAM/CAE technologies in smart manufacturing
  • Advanced modeling, simulation and optimization in CAE
  • CAD-based high-fidelity multiphysics simulation
  • CAD-based cultural heritage related representations, reverse engineering and prototyping
  • AI and digital twins in modern CAD/CAM/CAE frameworks
  • Generative design and topology optimization
  • Smart CAM and autonomous machining
  • CAD-to-inspection
  • CAD-based material selection and CAE/FEM materials simulations
  • Human-centric CAD and digital ergonomics
  • CAD-based PLM systems
  • Data-driven CAE
  • Design for additive manufacturing
  • Cloud-based CAD/CAM/CAE Platforms
  • CAD/CAE tools for lifecycle assessment (LCA)
  • 3D/4D printing
  • XR (AR/VR/MR) in CAD/CAM environments
  • CAD/PLM in the fashion industry
  • CAD/CAE for biomechanical applications

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.
