Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Permanent magnet synchronous motors proved their superiority to other electrical machine types in terms of efficiency, power density, reliability, and flexibility, and gained significant interest of researchers and industry professionals over the last few decades. Various domains such as automotives, air space, power generation, military, medical, automation, and robotics currently use various types of electrical machines in different configurations.
However, the limited nature of resources needed to obtain high-performance permanent magnets and relatively high fabrication costs represents inconveniences that can be overcome by developments in achieving even better performance through an optimal design of both motor geometry and control strategy. Thermal and mechanical aspects represent serious challenges in permanent magnet electrical machines and should not be neglected. As an alternative to these shortcomings, interest in cheaper permanent magnets, such as ferrite used in electrical machines with convenient topologies, is currently increasing.
This Special Issue calls for papers that explore innovative applications of different permanent magnet electrical machines in terms of design and modeling approaches, drive topologies, motor control stratgies, fault tolerance, and redundancy.
I look forward to receiving your contributions.
Dr. Adrian Munteanu
Guest Editor
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. Machines 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.
