Dear colleagues,

The April issue of the magazine is in front of you. While thinking about whether there is something that makes this issue unique in relation to the previous issues, endless conversations I had with our authors and collaborators when preparing the materials for publication in recent weeks and months came to my mind. These working conversations about articles would often take a turn to a completely private sphere and, as I thought about them later on, I realised that many of us work in circumstances that are often very challenging on a personal level. I find it useful that, nowadays, we can do lots of things online, but these conversations have led me to conclude that everything has its limits. It is understandable that it is not at all easy to dwell exclusively in your home for a long period of time. However, while one would expect widespread apathy among people on such occasions, I got the impression that there has never been more optimism among us. I strongly believe that it is exactly this unbridled optimism, which has sprung in the midst of these challenging circumstances, and the zeal that could not have gone unnoticed while we were preparing the materials for this issue of Transformers Magazine, that have marked this edition. This optimism is exactly what I would like to convey to all our loyal readers through these written words.

I strongly believe that it is this unbridled optimism and the zeal that could not have gone unnoticed while we were preparing the materials for this issue of Transformers Magazine that have marked this edition.

It is nice to hear that, even in such challenging circumstances, Transformers Magazine globally connects us and further empowers not only our readers who give meaning and purpose to the magazine, but also all of us who actively participate in the making of the magazine: our authors, reviewers, editors, collaborators and the entire editorial board. While the Transformers Academy is an additional piece in the opulent mosaic that brings to you another dimension of interactivity, and the Transformers Forum provides simplicity, directness and speed of communication, we now also offer books which, some might say, capture the very essence of knowledge. Our latest book release, the OLTC Dynamic Testing Guide authored by Dr. Raka Levi, has already been well received by our readers, just as our other publications, and we hope that we will continue to meet your expectations in the future.

I hope you will find this issue a useful and pleasurable read.

Dr. Mladen Banovic, Editor-in-Chief
