The first experimental and simulated article initially only involved MD simulation. However, upon the recommendation of the reviewers, additional experiments were included. Due to lack of experimental experience, an extension of two months was requested for revisions. Fortunately, it was eventually accepted. When I was pursuing my master's degree, I had always wanted to have both MD and ASS. Now, I have finally achieved one of them. I am grateful to the editor and the two reviewers!

Excuse me, do you have any results yet? Good luck to you! Mine has been in the "required review completed" state for a month and a half now, with no updates. I'm a little frustrated.

After reading your comments on various journals, it is clear that you are just a piece of trash. If your submission is not accepted, you resort to defaming the journal. I remember when you supported domestic journals and submitted your best work to NML. But when it was rejected, you called it a garbage journal, claiming that only big shots can get published there. I really look down upon someone like you who criticizes others' journals just because your own work is not up to standard.

Such a trashy journal is actually in Zone 1, the classification system of the Chinese Academy of Sciences is really rubbish to the extreme.

It's really slow. I have urged once during the under review stage, and now I am waiting again. Helpless.

The school requires Zone 1, so I tried submitting to MD. It feels quite fast, but I don't know how the result will be. Submitted on May 24th, reviewed within three days. They provided a tracking link, so I can see clearly how many people have taken it. Maybe there are fewer people in this direction. After a week, one person took over the review, and there were changes every three days until June 15th, when the second person took over. Currently, there have been no changes for 6 days. I saw someone earlier saying there are only two reviewers, so it might be relatively stable. I have been worried that no one will review it and it will be rejected...

May I ask if it has been submitted for review in the end? The editing process is so slow.

风我渡 2022-06-06

Hello, may I ask if after submitting the MD, does each author need to confirm before it is sent for review?

After submitting to the final step, click "Generate PDF". Then, please indicate your publishing options. Click "Publishing Options". There is only "Publish as a subscription article" available, but it cannot be selected. The option below, "Close", is freely selectable, but it cannot proceed to the next step. It seems to be stuck in a loop. Can anyone please help urgently?

Agreed. Nowadays, using OA (Online Application) is basically a trend, and I don't think there is much to criticize about it since the acceptance rate is objectively determined. Besides, after all, the submission fee is not paid by ourselves. If the boss has a problem with a few thousand dollars, it's better to criticize the boss by dissing them.

There are many criticisms in the comments about this journal. Don't look down on it just because it is open-source, and don't judge it based on its low acceptance rate. Don't say grapes are sour just because you can't taste them. This year, the expected impact factor is 8.9, surpassing Acta Materialia's estimated 8.3. It's just a matter of time before it happens.

Five months, two major repairs, and finally rejected, the dust finally settles.

Although the impact factor is not high, only 7.991, the 2020/2021 upgraded version of the Chinese Academy of Sciences is in the top tier of materials science.

Similarly, the second trial has been reviewed for a month, and the status has changed three times.

朴小嘻嘻 2021-12-13

It has been over a month since now, and I am still in the submission status. I don't know the reason. Does anyone know?

我就看个评论 2021-11-29

The date for "under review" has been changed twice, and there are still no results...

丘大猫 2021-11-27

Is this how you respond when you get rejected?

yuanyuan@ 2021-11-26

November 8th submitted,
November 9th with editor,
November 10th under review,
November 22nd under review changed to a different date,
November 25th still under review but date changed again.
I want to ask, what does it mean when "under review" keeps changing during the submission process? I am waiting anxiously as I need it for job hunting after graduation.

2021-11-02

Yesterday I submitted, today it was rejected. The speed was quite fast. I wish your DY would be warned soon.
