Is there any specific requirement for typesetting? Like margins? The manuscript is 24 and a half pages long, and the editor keeps saying it exceeds the length...

Brother, have you written the reminder letter? I have also been waiting for half a month after submitting.

What is your current status? Mine has also been for more than half a month...

mengone 2022-03-16

What is the current status? It feels like this journal is so slow.

Hello, just wanted to ask, how is the issue with the number of pages resolved? Can the line spacing be reduced a bit?

寻梦啦啦 2022-02-17

First revision: In the first round of revisions, reviewer 1 accepted the manuscript without any major changes, reviewer 2 requested minor revisions, and reviewer 3 requested major revisions or rejected the manuscript. In the second round of revisions, reviewer 3 was successfully convinced, but surprisingly, reviewer 2 refused to accept the revisions. The editor gave one last chance, possibly because I did not follow reviewer 2's advice properly, although I explained why I made certain decisions. Perhaps this made reviewer 2 angry, as they provided many unrelated and completely different opinions from the first round of reviews. Fortunately, the editor gave one last opportunity, so I diligently conducted additional experiments and answered questions. Surprisingly, the manuscript was accepted without further review after submission. Perhaps the revisions impressed the editor, and I am very lucky to have my first major publication.

It should have been the start of work yesterday, and my task from yesterday has been handled. In addition, it takes a month for the submission to be reviewed with the editor, which is a bit slow. Let's just wait patiently and it's better not to rush at this point.

泰山不佐 2022-02-15

The first time I submitted to CST, the article had some new and interesting findings, so I thought it would pass. However, I didn't expect to wait for nearly 7 months for the lengthy review process. The "under review" status changed four or five times during this period. After 4 months of submission, I sent a reminder and the editor replied that they were still waiting for one reviewer's opinion. It wasn't until New Year's Day this year that all the review comments were returned. They were mostly positive and appreciative. After making minor revisions, I had to wait for another month for acceptance, which coincided with the Chinese New Year holiday. The overall time was a bit long, but I managed to publish before graduation. The editor and reviewers were very responsible, possibly because my research topic is relatively niche in the field of composite materials mechanics, which may have contributed to the longer review cycle.

Has your status changed? Did you edit and take a break for the Chinese New Year without reviewing?

yexinming 2022-01-29

It has been 10 days for me as well.

雪橇狗的咆哮 2022-01-24

It has been more than half a month with the editor. Does everyone know if the recent lack of time for editing is only applicable to me or to others as well?

luomu 2022-01-11

Can the line spacing be a bit smaller? If your document exceeds 25 pages, the journal's editorial manager (not an editor) will ask you to make revisions. If it is within 25 pages, it will first be reviewed by an editor who will consider whether to submit it for review or reject it. When we talk about line spacing, it refers to double spacing, but the requirement is not that strict. There are also requirements for margins. As long as the editor submits it for review, everything is negotiable. Generally, adjust the margins first, and then adjust the line spacing if there are too many words. The font must be 12-point Times New Roman.

The maximum length of the manuscript is 25 pages, including figures and tables. Please ensure that the page count does not exceed this limit.
