Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is dedicated to presenting the latest advancements, innovative applications, and comprehensive research in actuator technologies that are pivotal for controlling and mitigating unwanted noise and vibrations across various sectors. The collection aims to provide a comprehensive overview of actuator technology’s current state and future prospects in active control systems.
Actuators are the dynamic workhorses of active noise and vibration control systems. They are responsible for generating the controlled counteracting forces or sound waves that nullify the negative effects of noise and vibrations. This Special Issue highlights the critical role of actuators, exploring their design, materials, and control strategies that enhance their performance in real-world applications.
The effectiveness of actuator technology is inextricably linked to the sophistication of the control systems that drive them. This collection of research papers delves into the latest in adaptive and intelligent control algorithms, exploring how these systems are becoming more responsive and efficient in managing complex and variable noise and vibration scenarios.
The active noise and vibration control field is inherently multidisciplinary, intersecting with acoustics, materials science, electrical engineering, and mechanical engineering. This Special Issue is a testament to the collaborative efforts of researchers across these disciplines, which drive forward collective knowledge and technological advancements in actuator technology.

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. 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.
