Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
I cordially invite you to contribute an article to the Special Issue of the MDPI's journal Machines on the topic of "Optimization and Modelling of Synchronous Permanent Magnet, Synchronous Reluctance and Induction Machines”. The central theme of this Special Issue focuses on advances in optimization and modelling of the most important and most widely used types of electrical machine: induction machines and what we generally call brushless synchronous AC machines. New modelling methods and improvements in optimization deserve more attention in today's world of transportation electrification, green transition, and higher demands on power density, torque density, and increased efficiency. Experimental verification of proposed scientific contributions is highly appreciated.
Topics of interest may include but are not limited to:
- Two-dimensional analytical, semi-analytical, and FEA modelling; handling of 3D and end-effects
- Electromagnetic design, thermal design, mechanical design;
- Loss modelling (AC winding losses, iron losses, permanent magnet losses, stray load losses);
- Windings (technology, layout, retrofitting, AC loss reduction);
- Polyphase machines;
- Design for fault-tolerance;
- Improvements in production technology and material modelling;
- Prototype testing methods;
- Transition towards higher efficiency classes (IE5);
- Improvements in optimization methodology, optimization methods;
- Multi-objective, multi-physical, multi-level optimization;
- Optimization based on surrogate models / meta-models;
- Robustness and uncertainty in optimization;
- Optimization scenarios for renewable generation applications, traction applications, aerospace applications or industrial drive applications.
It is recommended to send a tentative title and a short summary of the manuscript to Machines Assistant Editor Ms. Amy Liu [email protected].

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.
