Dear Colleagues,
You are cordially invited to participate in the 2nd International Electronic Conference on Actuator Technology (IECAT), sponsored by MDPI’s open access journal Actuators. The meeting is an opportunity for researchers in the field of actuator engineering and technology to present their research and exchange ideas with colleagues. This is a virtual conference via Zoom.
This Second Conference will focus on “Sustainability and Crisis Technologies”, in addition to general topics in accordance with the aims and scope of the journal Actuators.
- New actuator materials - Piezoelectrics, Magnetostrictors, Shape memory alloys; Elastomer actuators
- Innovative actuator designs - Ultrasonic motor; MEMS/NEMS
- New actuators for control systems, Intelligent control, Fault and attack-tolerant control, Power supply, Switching regulator, AC/DC converter
- Remarkable actuator applications - Biomedical actuators, Robotics, Crisis technologies, Aerials, Surface and underwater vehicles; Energy harvesting
Your submitted paper will be reviewed and published in a Special Issue of the journal Actuators with a discount of 20% on the article processing charge (ISSN 2076-0825; Actuators).
We look forward to engaging in exciting discussions and hearing new ideas and perspectives from experts in the actuator field. All participants are welcome to join the online conference.
Kind regards,
Prof. Kenji Uchino, MS, MBA, Ph.D.
