Summary and scope
This Special Issue primarily focuses on enabling digital technologies which facilitate design and manufacturing approach for microsystems used in different domains: electrical, mechanical, thermal, magnetic, optic, fluidic.
The Special Issue organizes and disseminates recent research, theories, and practices relevant to areas of interactive system design and manufacturing technology to improve the industrial performance and reliability of microdevices such as integrated circuits, microsystems, micro actuators, and microsensors.
The Special Issue emphasizes the potential for interdisciplinary interactions between conventional and advanced modelling and fabrication approaches that can include cutting edge micro manufacturing processes as a source of new information.
- Utilize multi-physical modelling methodologies for microsystems design
- Integrate technical knowledge to manage the complexity of MEMS
- Digital aids to optimize process, test quality and reliability of microdevices
The following topics are of special interest:
- Computer Aided Design (CAD) of Microfluidic Devices
- CAD for Microelectromechanical Systems
- Design and manufacture of Biomedical Microdevices
- Analytical mathematical methods, numeric methods, or their hybrid combinations for microsystem design
- Design of an integrated strain gauge sensor and a wireless sensor system for pressure measurement
- Microsystem application domains: electrical mechanical, thermal, magnetic, optic, fluidic etc.
- Methodologies for design and optimization of microsystems
- Characterization, verification, and reliability of microsystems
- Microfabrication plus assembly and packaging technologies
- Generative design for multi-layered device components
- Digital Twins for ultra-precision manufacturing processes
Submission guidelines
All papers must be prepared in accordance with the Instructions for Authors (this opens in a new tab). Authors should submit through the online submission site (this opens in a new tab) and select article type “SI - Enabling Design and Manufacture of Micro Products Using Digital Technologies".
Submitted papers should present original, unpublished work, relevant to one of the topics of the Special Issue. All submitted papers will be evaluated on the basis of relevance, significance of contribution, technical quality, scholarship, and quality of presentation, by at least two independent reviewers. It is the policy of the journal that no submission, or substantially overlapping submission, be published or be under review at another journal or conference at any time during the review process. Final decisions on all papers are made by the Editor-in-Chief.
