Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The goal of this Special Issue is to provide a forum for colleagues to publish novel research results related to the techniques and equipment used to measure, model, characterise and fiducialise magnetic fields in a wide variety of applications.

This Special Issue aims to include fundamental and industrial research covering the following:

- Fundamental problems and challenges, magnetisation domains and processes.
- High-frequency and low-frequency magnetic measurements.
- Magnetic measurement concepts and techniques.
- Magnetic sensors and magnetic instruments.
- Modelling and measurement of magnetic properties of soft magnetic materials, including aspects of microstructures.
- Characterisation of permanent magnets and their measurements.
- Characterisation of electromagnets and their measurements.
- Characterisation of superconducting magnets and their measurements.
- Characterisation of novel magnetic structures and their measurements.
- Industrial magnetic measurements and testing, including magnetic standards.
- Bio-electromagnetic testing and non-destructive magnetic testing.
- Magnetic sensors.
- Magnetic metrology.
- Magnetostriction, magnetocaloric and anisotropy measurement.
- Modelling of magnetic material behaviours (characteristics under scalar and/or vectorial magnetic excitations, including harmonics and DC offsets, hysteresis and power losses, coupled phenomena, etc.)
- Relevance to applications in electromagnetic devices (transformers, motors, etc.)
- Magnetic measurements for big science subsystems, including accelerator magnets and insertion devices.
- Any other relevant topics.

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. Metrology is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly 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 1000 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.

Irreversible demagnetization processes in high-performance Fe-Nd-B magnets were investigated using a novel test rig. Designed to capture local magnetic field distributions and integral average magnetization in situ, the rig operates under field and temperature conditions similar to those found in electric motors. Validation against established techniques such as the hysteresisgraph and Hall mapper confirmed its accuracy. Furthermore, we observed the ability to detect even small variations of less than 2.5% in coercive field strength across the sample volume using field scans. The system significantly reduces measurement times from days to hours, enabling efficient in situ detection of magnetic field distributions during the whole demagnetization process. Full article
