Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

The popularity of renewable energy sources has increased considerably in the past decade. In many countries, wind, wave and tidal energies are identified as the most promising energy sources. However, the maintenance of wind, wave and tidal energy systems is still a developing area.

For this Topic, we invite submissions that address novel research and the development of maintenance technologies for wind, wave and tidal energy systems, including, but not limited to, the following:

  • Condition monitoring for wind, wave and tidal energy assets for stationary and non-stationary operations;
  • Prognosis for wind, wave and tidal energy assets;
  • Signal and image processing for wind, wave and tidal energy assets;
  • Root cause analysis for wind, wave and tidal energy assets;
  • Modelling and finite element analysis for fault diagnosis, prognosis and root cause analysis for wind, wave and tidal energy assets;
  • Model-driven and data-driven approaches for wind, wave and tidal energy assessments.

Preprints.org is a multidisciplinary platform offering a preprint service designed to facilitate the early sharing of your research. It supports and empowers your research journey from the very beginning.

MDPI Topics is collaborating with Preprints.org and has established a direct connection between MDPI journals and the platform. Authors are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity by posting their preprints at Preprints.org prior to publication:

  1. Share your research immediately: disseminate your ideas prior to publication and establish priority for your work.
  2. Safeguard your intellectual contribution: Protect your ideas with a time-stamped preprint that serves as proof of your research timeline.
  3. Boost visibility and impact: Increase the reach and influence of your research by making it accessible to a global audience.
  4. Gain early feedback: Receive valuable input and insights from peers before submitting to a journal.
  5. Ensure broad indexing: Web of Science (Preprint Citation Index), Google Scholar, Crossref, SHARE, PrePubMed, Scilit and Europe PMC.
