Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The new generations of information technologies such as 6G and the Internet of Things and artificial intelligence technologies such as deep learning and LLMs are experiencing explosive growth. Intelligent technologies are widely used in various aspects of equipment design and manufacturing. Among them, mechanical equipment, as the core of production and manufacturing, is continuously developing integrated innovation in its design and manufacturing systems, forming the main driving force of a new phase of industrial revolution. In particular, the new generation of intelligent manufacturing driven by artificial intelligence, as the core technology of the new industrial revolution, is triggering significant and profound changes in the design concept and manufacturing modes of the mechanical equipment industry, as well as in other aspects. It is reshaping the development paths, technological systems, and industrial format of mechanical equipment design and manufacturing, driving a new stage of development for the global mechanical equipment industry.
We invite you to submit original research or reviews on the "Intelligent Design and Manufacturing of Mechanical Equipment". Topics can include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Intelligent Manufacturing Modes of Mechanical Equipment;
- Intelligent Design Approaches and Applications of Mechanical Equipment;
- Equipment and Systems for Intelligent Manufacturing of Mechanical Equipment;
- Intelligent Manufacturing Processes of Mechanical Equipment;
- AI-driven design;
- AI CAD/CAM/CAE.
