Advances in Electric Machines and Associated Drives for More Electric Transportation (Aircraft, Automotive, Rail and Marine)

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Recently, electric transportation has become one of the most attractive research topics, exploiting continuous progress in the application of new materials together with advances in design and control development for electric machines. This Special Issue will gather and present the latest advances in electric machines and associated drives for the more electric transportation sector. Topics of interest for this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • All-electric machines, drives, and converters/inverters
  • Novel topologies and materials (magnetic, electronic, and structural, e.g., light-weighting)
  • Drive configurations
  • Component and system-level optimizations
  • Control system topologies

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.
