Submitted at the end of July, there were two major revisions given. It has been over three weeks since the second major revision, but there has been no change. The overall review speed of the journal feels much slower than during the summer. Let's keep a calm mindset towards this journal. It's not as good as imagined.

The following text translates to English as: "The status is under review since I returned from my major renovation. It has been 20 days now, and currently it is still under review."

Excuse me, is the status "under review" in the manuscript review process, or is it only "reviewer assigned"?

The journal review process is relatively easy, making it suitable for first-time submission of foreign-language papers. The submission cycle starts in May and acceptance is given in early August. It takes about ten days for the review to be completed, and then it takes about a month to receive the reviewers' comments. There are two reviewers in total, with one providing some substantial suggestions and the other mentioning only some formatting issues. After making the necessary revisions and resubmitting, the paper was accepted. Overall, the experience was good. The requirement for originality is not high, and the publication fee is very affordable. For a 12-page paper, it cost only a little over 800 RMB. I hope the journal will continue to improve.

Thank you for sharing your valuable submission experience. May I ask if the Journal of Mechanical Science and Technology accepts self-formatting submissions after acceptance, payment, and proofreading? I have suddenly noticed a few minor errors in my paper and would like to correct them. I have tried contacting the journal but have not received any response. I'm not sure what to do next.

The timeline for submission is as follows: submitted to the journal on January 4, 2021,
with editor on January 15, 2021,
reviewer has been assigned on January 30, 2021,
under review on February 5, 2021,
reviewer has been assigned on April 1, 2021,
under review on April 15, 2021,
reviews completed on May 7, 2021,
Editor Assigned on May 10, 2021,
Major revision needed on June 4, 2021,
revision submitted on August 4, 2021,
final decision accepted on September 7, 2021.

The journal's quality is average and can be used for practicing the first article. The reviewers' comments were relatively mild, and the difficulty of revision was not high. The formatting process took quite a lot of time, and the submission of the page fee was also a bit troublesome. However, I am grateful for the acceptance and wish everyone smooth research and many articles.

The review process is too slow. I submitted it on June 9th, 2021. It seems that they only invite a few reviewers each time. Each review takes approximately 6 weeks. As of November 24th, it has already gone through three rounds of under review. I don't know if there will be a fourth round. According to their website, they state that the first review should take 56 days, and the second review should take over 170 days. It has been over five months now, and there is still no sign of the first review. It's difficult to wait, so everyone should be cautious.

Hello! May I ask if the Journal of Mechanical Science and Technology accepts revisions after payment? I have noticed a few minor errors in the paper and would like to correct them.

huihui 2021-11-20

It took 12 days from my editor being invited to being assigned.

jeiog 2021-11-18

Editor Invited for 10 days already, hasn't the editor come to handle it? May I ask how long this status will last? Wasn't this journal supposed to be quite fast?

The charging standard for layout fee can be found on the official website of the journal. The first 6 pages are free of charge. You need to do the typesetting yourself, and the template can be downloaded from the official website. The fee is only charged after the acceptance, and it does not affect the submission.

jeiog 2021-11-04

How is the layout fee charged? Why is there a layout fee if it's not open-source? If it's charged based on the number of pages, does the journal determine the fee after typesetting?

jeiog 2021-11-04

I would like to ask, isn't this not open-source? Why is there a layout fee, and how much does it cost?

If payment is required, you will be sent an email. Inside, there will be a link to directly make the payment with a credit card.

mosit 2021-10-19

Ask the experts who know, how long does it usually take for this journal to send the payment email after accepting? In my acceptance email, they asked if I wanted to use the journal's free proofreading service, and I replied saying that I wanted to use it. However, I still haven't received the payment email from the journal. I can't find how to make the payment.

There is only one reviewer, and it has been two weeks since the reviews were completed. I have no idea about the current situation, so I dare not urge.

Just received the email for major revision. Given two months for revisions. My research direction is fault diagnosis. The reviewer requests further experimental supplementation and analysis with an additional set of open-source data. ?
Submitted on August 9, 2021.
Major revision due on October 12, 2021.

测控大Fa好 2021-10-05

May I ask, it has been over a month since my reviews were completed. It has been almost two months since the submission on the 8th of July, but still no news. What's the situation? Should I remind the editor?

李渣迪 2021-09-16

A few more minutes passed, and the editorial department sent me an email, which included payment instructions and a link. The end. Congratulations to everyone and I hope you all have good results!

李渣迪 2021-09-16

Continuing from my previous submission experience, I will provide further details in the hope that it will be helpful to everyone. I submitted it around the end of June and found the reviewers after about ten days. The review process took 13 days, and Reviewer 1 and Reviewer 3 provided a dozen or so comments. After making the revisions, it took four days for it to be returned with the status "under review" and another 11 days for reviewers to be assigned again (I'm not sure why they needed to find new reviewers). Approximately four to five days later, it went back to "under review." After 13 days, the reviews were completed, and four days later, an editor was assigned. Two days after that, it was accepted as it is. I uploaded the final version and copyright on the same day, and it was accepted the following morning.

In the email from the editor, there was only one sentence from Reviewer 2, which meant that the modifications were good and they suggested accepting it. Perhaps it is the personal habit of the editor responsible for my paper, as my reviews always take within two weeks. The overall process was very fast.

Finally, I would like to ask how to make the payment. I saw someone mention a link for it, but I couldn't find it.

mosit 2021-09-07

Excuse me, have you made changes to your revised paper? How long does it take to get the results after making the revisions?

因为有你 2021-08-30

I'm still in the same state as you since I submitted it in mid-July. Just waiting.

如若&初见 2021-08-25

I submitted it at the beginning of August, and the system has been showing "Editor invited" up until now. Can I ask my friends: Is it normal for the status to remain like this even after submission? Or does it mean that it hasn't been submitted yet? I would appreciate some guidance.

王冠 2021-08-18

After submission, it takes about ten days for the manuscript to reach the editor's hands. The review process usually ends in 13 days. Two reviewers provide ten suggestions, and after the editor's major revisions, it took nine days to resubmit. It has been ten days now, and it is still in the review status. I wonder why the second review is taking so long. Did the Koreans take a vacation?

测控大Fa好 2021-07-31

That is a document circulating on the internet, and it is the seal of the Medical School of South China University of Technology. Please judge it yourself.

明天花会开 2021-07-26

It seems that South China University of Technology has included this journal in the warning journal list, so should we submit less in the future???

lForest 2021-07-23

May I ask, the editor asked for format modification and provided a template, but it differs from the format of the paper officially published in the journal. Which one should I follow?

ZKYQ 2021-07-06

There is a link, just open it and make the payment directly.
