All existing submissions that were not accepted before 2nd October 2023 will continue to be processed, and accepted papers will be published in the 2024 volume with Sage.

Surface Engineering provides a forum for the publication of refereed material on both the theory and practice of this important enabling technology, embracing science, technology and engineering. Coverage includes design, surface modification technologies and process control, and the characterisation and properties of the final system or component, including quality control and non-destructive examination.

Contributions are invited on any aspect of the use of surface engineering to produce surface-substrate systems having mechanical, tribological, chemical and/or functional properties that cannot be achieved from the individual components alone.

Translated text: The project was submitted at the beginning of January and went through four rounds of external review.

The first review took 1.5 months, the second review lasted 3 months, the third review took another 1.5 months, and just recently we made revisions and sent it back for the fourth review.

During the second review, it was suggested that the language needed polishing, so we made the necessary changes. In the third review, it was advised that professional proofreading was required. We just finished polishing and revising it, and it is currently in the fourth review phase.
