Aims and Scope
The International Journal of Engineering Science is not limited to a specific aspect of science and engineering but is instead devoted to a wide range of subfields in the engineering sciences. While it encourages a broad spectrum of contribution in the engineering sciences, its core interest lies in issues concerning material modeling and response. Articles of interdisciplinary nature are particularly welcome.

The primary goal of the new editors is to maintain high quality of publications. There will be a commitment to expediting the time taken for the publication of the papers. The articles that are sent for reviews will have names of the authors deleted with a view towards enhancing the objectivity and fairness of the review process.

Articles that are devoted to the purely mathematical aspects without a discussion of the physical implications of the results or the consideration of specific examples are discouraged. Articles concerning material science should not be limited merely to a description and recording of observations but should contain theoretical or quantitative discussion of the results.

Verified Reviews
Note: Verified reviews are sourced from across review platforms and social media globally.
Our group focuses on the intersection of solid mechanics and materials. We have submitted to JMPS and EML before, but for this particular journal, we have submitted a total of 9 times from 2018 until now, and all of them have been rejected. Six papers were directly rejected without review, and the remaining three were reviewed by 2-3 reviewers who were quite strict. There cannot be any flaws, and the results were all "lack of novelty". It's frustrating. We don't know what type of articles the editor is looking for. The acceptance rate is extremely low. They receive around 1500-2000 submissions per year but only publish less than 100 papers. It's extremely difficult to get a paper published.

I submitted my work in September last year, but there was no response in between. In March this year, I received a rejection without even undergoing the review process. It took a whole six months, and I have no idea what happened during that time.

I sent a reminder once, but there was no response from the editor, only a reply from the publisher's staff. After the rejection, there were no comments or feedback provided. I was extremely surprised, so I sent another letter to inquire, but still received no response from the editor.

I am completely frustrated; I have never encountered such a situation before. It has reached the peak of being a waste...
