The editing is very professional and the editorial department processes the manuscripts quickly. Most of the time is spent in the hands of the reviewers. It was a relatively smooth submission process!

You are fast. Mine is still under review, it has been 3 months already. I sent an email to ask, they said they have only received one opinion and are waiting for the second one.

On June 30, 2025, there was a major revision. The chief editor worked very quickly, giving feedback to the EIC in the morning and receiving comments in the afternoon. One reviewer provided a major revision (with over ten suggestions) and the other provided a minor revision, which the chief editor accepted. Thanks to the chief editor and the two reviewers.

It has been almost a month since the submission, and the status has now changed to Awaiting Reviewer Assignment.

Carolmachong, how long has your under review status been going on for?

(0) 讚！ | Nick

After two months of submission, received major revisions comments, the reviewer was very good at PUA, in short, the overall direction was fine, but a lot of detailed suggestions were given. After one month of major revisions, waited for almost half a year, probably the original reviewer could not be found, and had to go through two more rounds of major revisions, only to be rejected directly by the editor-in-chief. It is suggested not to submit to this journal if your study leans towards engineering applications, as the reviewer's questions were very amateurish.

During the initial revision, the editor provided 5 comments, while the two reviewers provided a total of 17 comments. In the week before the revision, the editor changed it to a minor revision, which was quite magical!

I couldn't get in touch with the original reviewer, so I had to change to a new one for the second review. I've been waiting for 4 months for the second review. I'm really scared that the original reviewer has disappeared!
