Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Electromagnetic modelling plays an essential role in the design, construction and practical description of different electromagnetic systems and devices. In the modern era, special attention is paid to the correct description of the electrical and magnetic fluxes in huge systems like the magnets in particle accelerators, particle acceleration systems, magnetic systems in the particle detectors, and thermonuclear reactors.
The electromagnetic models used to describe similar devices require millions of finite element nodes and hours of central processing unit time to calculate.
To reduce the size of such models and to minimize the computational resources and processing time necessary for the electromagnetic computations, several types of geometrical symmetries and special applications of the boundary conditions could be used to model a part of the device and propagate the results of these calculations to the entire volume of the device.
This Special Issue welcomes papers on the methodology of electromagnetic modelling using symmetries to simplify the models.

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. 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.
