You can combine several pictures into one image, such as 1a, 1b, or you can appropriately delete some parts. You can also put unimportant content in the supporting materials. It shouldn't be a problem if the page count exceeds slightly.

The feeling of reducing the size of the pictures cannot reach 25 pages, so basically all of them are main text content, and it is not suitable to put them in the appendix.

Personal Experience, the submission should not exceed 25 pages, the revised version should not exceed 27 pages. Extra content can be placed in the appendix or reduce the size of the images.

Want to submit to CST, but the total number of pages of the manuscript exceeds 25 pages with 12-point font and double spacing. I want to know if it is possible to submit and if there is any way to reduce the number of pages.

Okay, I've been stuck in the RRC for a few days now, still unable to make a decision, feeling anxious and fearful.

If the journal requires opinions from at least two reviewers, then "required reviews completed" indicates that two reviewers have already submitted their opinions. Maintaining this status while the time is changing indicates that additional reviewers have also submitted their opinions subsequently.

May I ask why the time for "required reviews completed" changes, but the status remains the same? I have been waiting for a long time, and the editor has not made a decision yet...

It took 4 months, although it was really slow, but I am very honored that the article can be published in this journal. Grateful.

Material bias, but the primary focus is on its application in structural engineering; therefore, the main emphasis is on mechanical performance, but damage mechanism research should also be considered. Finite element simulation is used concurrently, suggesting that the editor may be interested in interdisciplinary studies.

Excuse me, are you working in structural engineering or materials science? I saw that there are articles related to structural engineering in this journal, but I'm still a bit hesitant to submit my work!

4 reviewers, the review process was a bit slow, but one of the reviewers was very enthusiastic and provided many detailed and constructive suggestions for revisions. The final version of the paper is much better than the initial one! Many thanks to Editor Prof. Quaresimin. We had a meeting before due to institutional collaboration, but I couldn't understand him well at that time because of his strong Italian accent. I wonder if he still remembers me during the review process...

For a total of five and a half months, I received the first round of comments after over four months. Due to the interdisciplinary nature of the study, five reviewers were assigned, but I only received comments from one reviewer. They pointed out a few minor issues, which I believe were not sent for further review.

I speculate that this reviewer is an expert in the field, and the editor explained the reason for the slow review process: difficulty in finding reviewers.

It was my first submission, and I managed to hold back from requesting updates. I would like to express my gratitude to the regional editor, Marino Quaresimin.

The process was not short, but the outcome is satisfactory!

Took a total of over 3 months and a few days. The attitude of the editor felt very good, and they responded politely when I emailed them. After all, understanding is key in the face of the impact of the epidemic!

May I ask who is the editor?

It has been a month and a half, and still with the editor. I wrote a reminder letter but there's still no response. It's very awkward, like being caught in a dilemma. It's so slow.
