Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The rapid development of cutting-edge information technologies, such as the Internet of Things (IoT) and artificial intelligence (AI), has reformed the preventive maintenance mode of machines to be intelligent and predictive in the current big data era. The big data are drawn from the entire life cycle of a machine, which contains abundant information regarding activities in design, services, and maintenance. Intelligent maintenance is expected to adaptively represent useful information from machine big data and further give feedback on design optimization, running safety guarantees, and optimal maintenance decision-making. Due to the huge potential value of big data for machines, intelligent maintenance has been a hot topic in prognostics and health management. The referenced methodologies and technologies include advanced measurement and data collection, intelligent health monitoring and fault diagnosis, remaining useful life prediction and prognostics, maintenance optimization, etc. This Special Issue aims to collect the latest research achievements regarding intelligent maintenance of machines. The potential scopes are suggested but not limited to the following:

  • Digital twin modeling of mechanical systems;
  • Intelligent fault diagnosis with limited data;
  • Transfer learning-based fault diagnosis of machines;
  • Large-scale diagnosis foundation models;
  • Data-driven remaining useful life prediction;
  • Data-model-fusion prognostics of machines;
  • Health assessment and maintenance asset optimization;
  • Intelligent maintenance and repairment decision making

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. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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.
