Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the advanced control of electrical machines, vector control systems not using mechanical position sensors, otherwise known as position/speed sensorless control, has been increasingly studied and applied in both industries and household appliances.
This Special Issue aims to explore the latest innovations in sensorless control strategies that are pivotal for improving the stability and robustness of electrical machines systems. In addition, it will provide an international forum for professionals, academics, and researchers to present novel developments in the field. Topics include but are not limited to theoretical studies, computational algorithm developments, and the design and application of high-efficiency and stable-operation sensorless drives.
Furthermore, this Special Issue will accept contributions describing innovative research and developments in the advanced sensorless control of electrical machines. It will also will cover advanced algorithm design, test platforms, data analysis, and robustness improvement, as well as the following themes covered by MDPI’s Machines journal:
- Novel observer design techniques for sensorless control;
- Fault-tolerant sensorless control for high-reliability electrical machines;
- High-performance sensorless-drive test platforms and experimental research;
- Advanced model-free techniques for sensorless control;
- Sensorless control under extreme operating conditions;
- AI-driven approaches for enhanced sensorless control;
- Motor design-based sensorless control methods;
- Reliability assessment of sensorless control strategies.

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.
