Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the large-scale integration of renewable energy and the electrification process on the load side, a variety of equipment with distinct characteristics, such as loads and energy storage systems, is being connected to distributed energy systems. The operational patterns of these systems are undergoing significant changes, with increasing complexity and growing challenges in coping with extreme operating conditions and disturbances. Data monitoring, status detection, fault diagnosis, and the performance evaluation of equipment and systems have become increasingly important in research to ensure the reliable, safe, high-quality, low-carbon, and economical operation of distributed energy systems.
This Special Issue aims to collate the latest developments and emerging trends in the condition monitoring of distributed energy equipment and systems, with a focus on advancements in key components and the integration of new technologies. It provides a comprehensive platform for researchers and industry professionals to share their knowledge, insights, and experiences in this critical field.
The potential subtopics of this Special Issue include but are not limited to:
- Simulation design and modeling analysis;
- Multi-physics sensing and multi-source information fusion technologies;
- Intelligent fault identification and diagnosis;
- Lifetime prediction and remaining useful life estimation;
- Non-invasive or non-destructive monitoring;
- Applications of cloud-based monitoring platforms.

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.
