Vibration Control Using Electromagnetic Actuators

Dear Colleagues,

The electromagnetic actuator has the advantages of good controllability, a wide adaptive frequency band, sensitive response, large control force, small volume and weight, and easily controllable complex vibration and noise. It is widely used in power equipment such as energy, ships, aerospace and so on. The recent research literature has provided a huge amount of contributions related to the basic characterization of such devices, whilst the current ongoing research is devoted to various applications of the electromagnetic actuator, addressing specific needs and issues.

The aim of the present Special Issue is to collect original papers concerned with the application of various types of electromagnetic actuators to vibration control, without any limitation on the specific application field. Theoretical, numerical and experimental contributions are welcome. Modern design, modeling, simulation and control concerned with electromagnetic actuators are particularly encouraged, for both numerical and experimental data.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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. Actuators 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.
