Verified Reviews
Second submission, directly sent for external review, received feedback after two and a half months. Two reviewers provided 40 comments, requiring significant revisions. Two months were spent on the revisions. An extension of one month was requested during the process, and the editor was very nice and agreed to the extension twice. After three months of revisions, an acceptance email was received within a month, and both reviewers expressed satisfaction with the modifications.
Overall evaluation: It took approximately 7 months from submission to acceptance. This timeline may vary depending on the topic. Asking around, others who have submitted also experienced a similar timeframe. The journal editor is very nice, and their email replies are relatively prompt, typically within a week. Although the reviewers' comments may be strict, as long as one maintains a proper attitude and diligently follows the requirements for revisions, good results can be achieved. Overall, it is a nice journal. In comparison to the TR series, it is slightly inferior in the field of transportation.
