2022.3. Mid-term acceptance, format modification
The summary is as follows:
1. Most submissions within the group were accepted, with two reviewers. It is easier to encounter familiar people from within the country, making it relatively less difficult.
2. The APC (article processing charge) is too high, costing more than 20,000 RMB.
3. The impact factor (IF) is not particularly promising, but it is definite in the first quartile.
4. The selection of similar journals in China is gradually increasing, such as the Fundamental Research by the National Natural Science Foundation and Engineering by the Chinese Academy of Engineering. The APC is cheaper, and the difficulty is more worth the challenge.
