 Micro/Nano Mechatronics
 Vibration and Noise Control
 Mechatronics in Energy Systems
 Modelling and Design
 Fault detection and Diagnosis in Mechatronics Systems
 Human-Machine Interface
 Applications (Medical, Bioengineering, Aeronautics, ...)

2.  Mechatronics Applications in Cyber-physical Systems
 Mechatronics in Tertiary Education
Important Dates:
1. Submission of Special Session Proposals: 1 June 2016
2. Deadline for submission of full paper: 15 July 2016
3. Notification of acceptance with electronic publication instruction: 15 October 2016
