Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The magnetocaloric effect (MCE) is due to the temperature change provoked by the application of a magnetic field. In this special chapter, the articles should improve:

  1. theoretical scientific knowledge (thermodynamics, magnetism)
  2. simulation studies (ab initio, Montecarlo)
  3. materials with high functional properties, and/or
  4. applications studies and development/simulation of specific devices (actuators, sensors, energy). As an example, magnetic refrigeration technology has brought an eco-friendly alternative to the conventional gas compression (CGC) technique.

This special issue is open to new ideas and approaches, as well to review articles.

Prof. Dr. Joan-Josep Suñol
Guest Editor

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. Applied Sciences 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 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.
