Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Motion control of robotic systems has continued to be a central field of research for many decades. The evolution of the methods used in this area is only being further intensified by the complexity of the problems being solved. This is especially driven by the emergence of new classes of robotic systems. Considering industrial manipulation robotic systems with complex kinematics, dynamics and the presence of singularities, soft robotics, new types of grippers, mobile ground, airborne, marine, and dual-medium robotics, as well as bio-inspired robotics, the objects of all these and other classes of robotic systems require the use of known actuators or development of new types of actuators as well as new methods of trajectory planning and the associated motion control. This Special Issue is seeking high-quality publications spanning (but not limited to) the following topics:
- The design of trajectory planning and motion control systems for robotic systems with traditional and novel actuators;
- Motion control in deformable and bio-inspired systems;
- Physically plausible modelling of mechanical systems motion;
- Geometrical control methods;
- Analysis and control on manifolds;
- Trajectory planning and motion control systems based on AI and ML.

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. Actuators 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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
