Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to shed light on the potential that the study of symmetry has in power grids and renewable energy systems. Symmetry and renewable energy is a field of basic research, which covers quite a lot of areas, such as materials science, machine design, physics, and, of course, mechanics. With the rapid development of battery technology, electric machinery, and intelligent control areas, many advanced technologies have been applied to the field of mechanical engineering, such as rapid prototyping, numerical simulations, data-driven systems, evolutionary computation, and deep learning. Symmetry is a critical element in symmetry and renewable energy, e.g., vehicle devices, heavy machinery, and engineering machinery, and has been exploited in the design and optimization processes of materials, structures, and equipment. In the opinion of the Guest Editors, there are many theories and applications of advanced technologies in symmetry and renewable energy that also require the theory of symmetry.
This Special Issue on “Symmetry and Renewable Energy” aims to incorporate the latest research progress in the field of renewable energy that includes advanced materials, structures, and design methods. Topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Rapid prototyping, analytical, and numerical simulation technologies of renewable energy;
- Multiscale composite material selection technology;
- Interdisciplinary application in intelligent and green manufacturing;
- Performance analysis techniques for different key indicators of mechanical structures;
- Multidisciplinary optimization methods of advanced mechanical structures;
- Other related research 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. Symmetry 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.
