Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Fault detection and diagnosis in electric machines and power drives is an active and multidisciplinary research field involving several skills, including machine knowledge, power electronics, signal processing or artificial intelligence, among others. Fault diagnosis allows applying predictive maintenance strategies, thus limiting the extent and consequences of the faults because the failed components can be replaced before failure. In this way, unscheduled faults and downtime are minimized, while component lifetime is maximized.

This Special Issue invites contributions on the topic of fault diagnosis in electric machines based on both experimental and simulation studies. Of special interest are submissions from the fields of fault diagnosis strategies in electric machines and power drives focused to ease predictive maintenance tasks, minimizing fault occurrence and limiting the consequences of the faults. Contributions from the fields of signal processing, artificial intelligence applied to fault diagnosis in electric machines and drives, and RUL models are also welcome, including areas such as industry, automotive, and aerospace applications.

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. Energies 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 2600 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.
