Initially submitted to Scientific Reports for research in engineering applications, but it was rejected by the reviewers for not being sound enough. After making improvements based on their feedback, it was submitted to a journal by a famous open-access publisher. However, it was rejected by the editorial template just 2 days after submission, which was very frustrating. It was later submitted to this journal, which has a very detailed and up-to-date manuscript status in the submission system. The editor's email responses were prompt, and the overall experience of submitting was excellent. I hope this journal continues to improve and succeed!

Submitted on January 10th, received review comments on April 26th. There were three reviewers who provided a total of 29 comments. One reviewer recommended major revisions, another rejected the submission, and the third requested revisions and a re-review. Eventually, major revisions were made and the revised manuscript was submitted after 20 days. On May 27th, it was concluded that the modifications were incomplete. The expert pointed out that the answers to the questions were inadequate, there was a lack of innovation, the English language was poor, and there were several errors. Hence, it was deemed unsuitable for publication in this journal and was ultimately rejected. It's a tragedy, and I won't submit to this journal again. What a waste of emotions! Sob sob sob.
