Symmetry in Power and Electronic Engineering

Dear Colleagues,

The transition of traditional power systems to smart grids is an inevitability that is accompanied by many operational, technical, economic, and environmental issues. Contemporary research in the power system sector attempts to address many of these issues. Symmetry is a term that is connected with power system modeling and analysis. For instance, fault analysis is related to the modeling framework of symmetrical components. Another challenging task is the study of symmetric architectures of machine learning models and how novel and sophisticated architectures can be applied in power system problems.

In the context of these scientific and engineering challenges, the main objective of this Special Issue is to publish new models and methodologies for addressing open issues in present power systems and future smart grids by employing the concept of symmetry in the formulation and implementation of the aforementioned models and methodologies.

We welcome submissions of multidisciplinary research and cutting-edge approaches as well as state-of-the-art papers.

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. 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.
