Hello, have you processed the routine originality check and "Author Publishing Agreement"? I also received an acceptance email mentioning this, but it seems like it didn't require me to do anything. How did you handle it?

Hello, have you dealt with routine originality checks and the "Author Publishing Agreement"? I also received an acceptance email that mentioned it, but it seems like there was no requirement for me to do anything. How did you handle it?

May I ask about the result? After receiving the acceptance email, do I need to reply to that email? The editor said: This time, we need to use a software for regular originality check, do we not have to do it ourselves? Also, where can I find the "author publication agreement"? Thank you!

The reviewer sent it back again and asked four more questions. I hope they won't ask any more questions in the future. This journal is indeed a bit slow.

Your editing speed is so fast. I finished my proofreading in five days, but the reviews have been ongoing for a month, annoying.

Waiting for final information.

The total word count includes these two main parts. The total word count equals the 4680 words you mentioned plus the word count after conversion of (images + tables + formulas).

Can passing classmates help answer this question? Thank you very much!! After submitting my manuscript, I received an email saying: "A typical paper for this journal should be no more than 5000 words, inclusive of abstract and references. The word count of 5000 words excludes equivalent words for equations, figures, and tables. In addition, there should be a maximum number of 8 display units (figures, tables, and hybrid visuals that contain both pictures, data, and text)." When I open my manuscript in Word, the word count in the lower left corner is 4680, so why was it returned to me?

Submitted on January 1, 2022, it has been 5 months and it is still under review. I have sent three reminders during this period, and the editor keeps saying everything is normal and it is undergoing peer review. However, this is too slow. Graduation is approaching, and I can't wait any longer. I wonder why yours is not as fast. Did you submit to the same journal?

I don't know, mine has always been under review.

My "out for review" means it is under external audit, right?

2021.10.01-present under review

It has been almost four months and it is still under review. The journal's website states that the average time for receiving reviewer comments is 43 days, but it seems like I am the one on the longer side of the average.

In technical review, you need to verify whether the word count of your essay has exceeded the limit.

Hello, how long does it generally take for the journal "Required Reviews Completed" to complete?

元加 2021-09-27

It has been five days since submission, and it has been continuously showing "Submitted to Journal". Does it require confirmation from all authors before it can proceed with the editor?

小老鼠很大胆 2021-09-26

Submitted on 7.20, edited and rejected on 8.1. The reason was lack of creativity, but it didn't specify which parts were problematic. I didn't know how to make changes, so I gave up.

小老鼠很大胆 2021-08-07

The editor said that in recent years, there have been a large number of articles on exotic metal welding published in our journal and other publications. We do not intend to accept too many articles in this area. Additionally, the innovative statements in this paper are insufficient. In other words, it does not meet the editor's taste, which is tragic.

诗~远方 2021-03-17

Hello, this publication strictly requires that articles should not exceed 5000 words. Will there be a fee if it exceeds this limit?
