Journal impact factor is acceptable, after all, there are only a few journals in the field of marine engineering. However, it is not easy to get published. The acceptance rate is close to 50%. In recent years, almost all the submissions from our group have been accepted.

The first-instance opinion received two and a half months ago mainly involved one reviewer who kept dragging it.

How long does it take for the first trial to come back?

飞翔的菜菜 2022-12-08

Only one reviewer, Xiao Xiu, came back with comments after the first review. After making the revisions, the editor assigned two more reviewers. I don't know how much longer the review process will take.

Unable to conceal its extremely high employment rate, a 46% employment rate, do you think it's fair or not?

This journal is quite suitable for academic exchanges and publishing works for professionals in the field of marine engineering and water transportation technology.

投多了,还是掌握了些技巧。毕竟是工程类杂志,创新性、原创型要求不高,主要内容充实,分析到位,最主要的,英语写作过关。感觉,7分写,3分做。投稿前反复修改,没什么大问题了再投,这样审稿就很快。

The more I submitted, the more I mastered some techniques. After all, it is an engineering magazine, with low requirements for innovation and originality, focusing mainly on substantial content and accurate analysis. The most crucial aspect is to have good English writing skills. I feel that writing accounts for 70% while content accounts for 30%. Before submitting, I revise repeatedly, and only when there are no major issues left, I submit it. This way, the review process will be faster.

No, I just used Word directly, without using any templates. Just write it normally.

The translation of the text into English is as follows: "Our situations are similar, as we both submitted our contributions around the same time. Currently, I'm in contact with the editor, but I assume they are quite busy."

Can I ask the editor to write an email to urge in this situation? Is the editor of this journal easy to talk to? Will it be rejected?

TUOTUO 2022-11-23

It has been 23 days, and it is still being edited. May I ask if other experts are also experiencing the same situation? Is this speed normal?

Very well said, objective evaluation.

The downstairs may have some misunderstandings about the early warning. OE's self-citation has always been stable and far below the early warning line. If OE is alerted, thousands of journals will be alerted. Moreover, OE's acceptance rate has always been stable. The journal's homepage can provide data for the past five years. The increase in the number of publications in the past two years is due to the continuous increase in submissions received. Last year, OE received a total of 3393 submissions, and this year it is estimated that nearly 5000 submissions will be received. This means that OE will reject more than 3000 papers this year. In comparison, APOR received a total of 1239 submissions last year, and MS received a total of 488 submissions. The increase in OE's publication volume corresponds to the increasing research demand and numerous research directions in the field of ocean engineering. Counting the number of SCI journals in the field of ocean engineering, and considering the increasing interdisciplinary research in recent years, it can be seen that many interdisciplinary studies are being submitted. OE, as the flagship journal of the ocean engineering discipline, covers almost all research directions related to ocean engineering in its scope. In comparison, the scopes of MS and APOR are obviously narrower, but these two journals are also good. I am currently overseas and have just arrived. I have no personal interests. I am a senior editorial member of OE and understand the development direction, strategies, and current situation of some journals. Please note that our group does not have many publications in OE. In order to avoid being accused of favoritism, please don't only focus on the publication volume and ignore the more than 3000 papers that were rejected behind it.

The self-quarantine rate has reached 27. I am very worried if there will be a warning next year.

Geass-cp 2022-11-21

Submitted, waiting for revision comments. In the past year, I have received three manuscript reviews from Ocean Engineering. I reviewed two of them, but the third one was completely unrelated to my research direction, so I rejected it directly as I couldn't understand it. I am just a small doctoral student, why was the paper sent to me for review? I haven't published any articles on OE before.

This journal is really a matter of luck. It usually takes around 3 to 4 months for people around me from submission to acceptance, but for me, it took more than half a year directly.

The speed at which the host reviews is so fast! In what direction are they specializing?

Posted on October 3rd,
Received feedback for revisions by the end of October, one reviewer suggested major revisions and the other recommended rejection. The revision period was two weeks.
Replied on November 9th,
Accepted on November 19th.
This is my fourth original article during my Ph.D. studies. Overall, this journal has a fast and easy review process. The expertise of the reviewers depends on luck. For my third article, the two reviewers seemed to be Chinese and they only raised five questions, which were not very challenging. However, for my most recent article, it was obvious that the reviewers were foreigners, and they raised around 20 questions. The revision process took two weeks and was quite stressful, but in the end, it impressed the foreign reviewers and they both recommended acceptance without any further changes.

May I ask if there are any templates available?

石桥熊 2022-11-19

Hello, may I ask if you have a LaTeX template?

石桥熊 2022-11-19

"Do you have a LaTeX template?"

Is it really that slow??? Is it underwater propulsion using OE or POF? I heard that POF is very efficient.

太空挖矿 2022-11-18

Dear seniors, in terms of underwater propulsion or fluid field, may I ask which journal, OE or POF, has a higher level?

TUOTUO 2022-11-18

2022.10.31 Submitted
2022.11.1 Accepted, with editor
2022.11.5 Date changed, status still with editor
As of 2022.11.18, it is still with editor and I don't know what the situation is. It was supposed to be a quick review according to the comments, but it has been more than ten days and it is still with the editor. Is this normal in the field of oceanography?

GG思密达 2022-11-15

Have you not reminded me after reviewing it for so long?

不断拼搏123 2022-11-11

Looking at how fast your review process is, my first review took more than a year, and it has been almost 3 months since the major revisions were returned...

yldl 2022-11-11

Thank you, senior! @sunricha. After waiting for 20 days, it is finally under review. I hope there will be good news in the future!
