Special Issue Information
This Special Issue will publish selected papers from the 9th Symposium on Micro-Nano Science and Technology on Micromachines, 30 October–1 November, 2018, in Sapporo, Japan.
We encourage contributions on significant and original works in order to understand physical, chemical, and biological phenomena at the micro/nano scales and to develop applied technologies. The conference will cover the following main topics:
1: Precision Machinery Lubrication Design
2: Material dynamics Strength
3: Hydrodynamics
4: Thermal engineering
5: Production processing Mechanical materials
6: Robotics Mechatronics
7: Medical Biotechnology
8: Micro Nano system
Papers attracting most interest at the conference, or that provide novel contributions, have been selected for publication in Micromachines. These papers will be peer-reviewed for validation of research results, developments and 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 papers will be 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. Micromachines 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 1800 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.
