Dear Colleagues,

The development of science and new technologies bring challenges in designing mechanical systems; due to the growing importance of the Industry 4.0 paradigm, the creation of fast responsive models as well as the search for new optimization and simulation methods are currently a mandatory phase in the modeling and simulation of physical systems.

The aim of this Special Issue is to provide an opportunity for international researchers to share and review recent advances in optimization and simulation in mechanical engineering and Computer Aided Design fields. The proposed topics present many challenges and have a strong support in engineering, mathematics, computer science.

This Special Issue focuses on recent theoretical and computational studies for running industrial projects.

Topics include, but are not limited to the following:

– Design, optimization, simulation and control of engineering processes;

– Industry 4.0;

– Manufacturing of industrial products;

– Parametric modelling and shape analysis;

– Artificial intelligence in design process

– Smart automotive control systems;

– Additive manufacturing technologies;

– Robotics (industrial robots, mobile robots),

– Bio-CAD and bio-inspired design.

All interested researchers are kindly invited to contribute to this Special Issue with their original research articles.
Extended Deadline for manuscript submissions: 30 April 2024

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. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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.
