Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Having emerged over 40 years ago as a smart servo and control system, piezoelectric actuators and motors have been applied in many industry fields, such as aerospace, weapons, optical instruments, biomedical equipment, etc. Their advantages, including a simple configuration, being lightweight, high-precision positioning, no electromagnetic interference, self-locking when powered off, and a fast response, highlight the benefits of piezoelectric actuators and motors, promoting their industrial applications. Over the past 10 years, a series of novel piezoelectric actuators and motors with new structures and principles has been successively developed, greatly and significantly facilitating the progress of piezoelectric actuation technology. To further advance piezoelectric actuation technology and its applications in high-end equipment, this Special Issue seeks to showcase research papers, communications, and review articles focusing on recent advances of piezoelectric actuators and motors, including their design, modeling, simulation, experiments, and applications.
We look forward to receiving your submissions!

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. Micromachines 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 2600 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.
