Aims and Scope
Engineering Structures provides a forum for a broad blend of scientific and technical papers to reflect the evolving needs of the structural engineering and structural mechanics communities. Particularly welcome are contributions dealing with applications of structural engineering and mechanics principles in all areas of technology. The journal aspires to a broad and integrated coverage of the effects of dynamic loadings and of the modelling techniques whereby the structural response to these loadings may be computed.

The scope of Engineering Structures encompasses, but is not restricted to, the following areas: infrastructure engineering; earthquake engineering; structure-fluid-soil interaction; wind engineering; fire engineering; blast engineering; structural reliability/stability; life assessment/integrity; structural health monitoring; multi-hazard engineering; structural dynamics; optimization; expert systems; experimental modelling; performance-based design; multiscale analysis; value engineering.

Topics of interest include: tall buildings; innovative structures; environmentally responsive structures; bridges; stadiums; commercial and public buildings; transmission towers; television and telecommunication masts; foldable structures; cooling towers; plates and shells; suspension structures; protective structures; smart structures; nuclear reactors; dams; pressure vessels; pipelines; tunnels.

Engineering Structures also publishes review articles, short communications and discussions, book reviews, and a diary on international events related to any aspect of structural engineering.

ES is still a prestigious journal in the field of civil engineering. The review process is relatively fast, and the publication volume is high. The acceptance difficulty is not particularly high. Overall, compared to some journals of ASCE, it has a high cost-effectiveness. I submitted a long article at the end of last year and received the acceptance notification the day before yesterday. The general process is as follows:
December 27, 2020: Submission, approximately 2 weeks later sent for review.
April 3, 2021: Received comments from the first reviewer, two reviewers, not many issues, relatively positive about the paper's work. The editor requested minor revisions.
However, on April 7, 2021, the editor suddenly sent another email, saying that the comments from the third reviewer came back, asking us to include our response to this person in the revised manuscript. The comments from the third reviewer were more negative and critical, which annoyed me at the time, but my advisor still diligently revised the response to the comments.
May 4, 2021: Submitted the revised manuscript and response to the comments. 4 days later, sent for review again, and completed the review one week later.
May 22, 2021: Received the acceptance notification. The first two reviewers in the email stated that the issues were satisfactorily addressed and answered, without any comments from the third reviewer.

2021.10.09 To journal - Submitted to journal
2021.10.11 With editor - Under the editor's review
2021.10.12 Under review - Under peer review
2021.11.10 Required reviews completed - Peer reviews completed
2021.11.15 Process in decision - Decision-making process underway
2021.11.22 重新 Under review - Under review again
2021.12.20 直接给修改意见 :major revise. 三个专家意见:两个同意修改后录用,一个需要回答一个关键问题。- Directly provided revision suggestions: major revisions. Opinions from three experts: two agree to accept after revisions, one requires addressing a key question.
2021.1.09 提交 Revised manuscript - Submitted revised manuscript
2022.1.21 直接 Accept - Accepted directly
从投稿到录用总共用了3个多月,其实能更快,大概2个多月就可以,因为问题的回答在收到修改意见的第2天就已经完成,反复检查,拖了21天才提交,否则速度会提高到2个月零20天。- It took a total of over 3 months from submission to acceptance, but it could have been faster, probably around 2 months, as the response to the questions was completed on the second day of receiving the revision suggestions. Due to repeated checks, it took an additional 21 days to submit, otherwise the speed would have been reduced to 2 months and 20 days.
