9.6 Accept - Technical Hold Overall, the editor was very professional, and the three experts chosen were colleagues in the industry. Their questions were incisive and reasonable compared to some previous rejected journals. The only drawback was the slow speed.

I asked their staff, but it cannot be deleted; it can only remain in the system.

Can I ask what does it mean to have so many "to review"? Does it mean there are 7 reviewers?...

MG-Physics 2022-07-07

In the field of amorphous physics, the manuscript was submitted at the end of November 2021, and it took 1-2 weeks for the review process. There were two reviewers. After major revisions, the manuscript went through three rounds of modifications and was accepted in early July 2022.
The editor was very responsible, and the reviewers were very professional. They were able to point out our weaknesses and guide us on how to revise and polish the paper.

How do I cancel or delete a new manuscript in the science submission system? I just wanted to take a look at the submission process, so I created one, but now it's always there.

Science sub-journals are impressive without comments. However, the three major journals and their sub-journals mainly focus on the fields of biology, chemistry, and medicine, and are not very friendly towards traditional mechanics. My research direction is multi-energy field coupling and vibration suppression mechanism, which leans towards physics. The overall editor of Science gave the evaluation of "very substantial engineering work that is more suitable for specialized journals" and categorizes it as engineering, leading to rejection within a week. Originally, I submitted it in the direction of applied science and engineering, originating from engineering, extracting mechanisms and applying them in a broader direction. This journal requires passing through three stages: first, the chief editor rejects 60% of submissions, then the assistant chief editor rejects another 60%, leaving only 10 out of approximately 100 articles for external review. Therefore, the key is whether the editors decide to review it or not. It is very difficult for traditional mechanics to be published in comprehensive journals. It would be best if the list of authors includes a renowned foreign expert; otherwise, the chances of being cannon fodder are very high.

Return for repair, the status from the author has been for more than half a month and I don't know what the situation is...

One month for review, the speed is acceptable, hoping for a good outcome!

How about it, has your application been accepted?

花椒2 2022-03-10

Has the manuscript come back? Is there a high chance of rejection for external review? Mine is also under external review.

Submit for review about seven weeks after submission, first review takes about seven weeks, submit revisions after six weeks, second review takes about seven to eight weeks, submit revisions in one day, and receive acceptance one week later.

Timothy Zhang 2022-02-24

It would be perfect if the detailed process of submitting and receiving manuscripts could be listed.

From submission to acceptance, it took a total of 7 months. There were two reviewers who were very professional, meticulous, and responsible.

What is the final result?

The requirement for novelty is relatively high, and the influence is also relatively significant. Two years ago, I had a paper accepted, with two reviewers requesting a total of 10 additional experiments. It took 5 months from submission to acceptance.

Word limit.
At the beginning, when editing, the dates were changed a few times, which should have been changed in editing.
After submission for review, the dates may be updated, possibly due to resubmission after rejection by the reviewer, and the dates may also be updated upon receiving the reviewed manuscript. During revision, there were two reviewer comments, but it is unclear whether the editor provided only two or there were only two reviewers.
During the revision, there is one thing to note, the figure legend should not exceed 300 words and should not be too long. This was not mentioned in the submission requirements, and the formatting editor sent it back for re-modification during the revision.
Also, one more thing, the website often fails to load near midnight, so it is recommended to submit during the day.
This is to provide experience for those who want to submit.
Overall, this journal is too slow. Comrades in a hurry should not submit.
