Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

In the field of robotics, one of the most promising actuation techniques is using magnetic fields due to their safe interaction with tissues, wireless nature, and miniaturization potential. This has led to the continuous development of advanced magnetic actuators and sensors. In particular, the coupling of magnetism with soft robots has piqued great interest in the scientific community, as soft bodies can easily deform and adapt to the environment, leading to inherently safer robots.

This Special Issue aims to highlight novel breakthroughs in the field of advanced magnetic methods in robotics.

We call on researchers to share their latest advancements in magnetic methods in robotics. Contributions related to innovative designs, fabrication methods, materials, applications, and other topics in the field of magnetic robots, especially actuation and sensing, are welcome.

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.
