Advances in Industrial Mechanics and Design: Symmetries, Recent Trends and Frontiers

This special issue belongs to the section “Engineering and Materials“.

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Industrial mechanics and design are two fields of study with widespread applications in science and technology. Their new developments and frontiers have attracted the attention of a considerable audience of professionals such as engineers, designers, applied researches and practitioners. In addition, considering symmetry-based concepts and phenomena contributes to the future development of the fields. In spite of the tremendous number of published results in the literature, there remain many open problems that need more investigation.

In this Special Issue, we provide an international forum for researchers to contribute with original research as well as review papers focusing on the latest achievements and frontiers in Industrial Mechanics and Design.

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. Symmetry 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.
