Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The aim of the Symposium on Mechanism Design for Robotics (MEDER 2024, https://meder2024.upt.ro/) is to bring together researchers, industry professionals and students from a broad range of disciplines related to mechanisms and robotics to share the latest developments and discuss the directions for the future of mechanism and robotics research. MEDER 2024 continues a successful series of Symposiums that has been started in Mexico 2010, continued in China 2012, in Denmark 2015, in Italy 2018 and in France 2021. The Conference will be held at the Conference Center and the buildings of Mechanical Faculty of Politehnica University of Timişoara in Timişoara, Romania.
Papers are solicited on topics related with mechanisms within aspects of theory, design, practice and its applications for robotics, including but not limited to:
- Mechanism design
- Mechanism education and history of MMS
- Theoretical and computational kinematics
- Experimental mechanics
- Mechanics of robots
- Control issues of mechanical systems
- Machine intelligence
- Innovative mechanisms and applications
- Linkages and manipulators
- Micro-mechanisms
- Dynamics of machinery and multi-body systems
You may choose our Joint Special Issue in Robotics.

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.
