Can you elaborate on the direction of the paper? I have been waiting for the editor to assign it for two months.

After submitting for two months, I was told to wait for the assignment of an editor. I sent two emails to inquire about the status and was told that someone was reviewing my submission. However, two months later, I received an email stating that the topic did not fit their criteria and my submission was rejected.

When did you invest?

The "Reviews Completed" date keeps changing, and the editor can't decide what's going on??

1. Reminded them to submit the manuscript 5 times, got a response, and finally sent an email directly to the editor-in-chief.
2. There was no EAP at that time, so the process should have been quick, but now there are more manuscripts, so it is moving slowly.
3. Later, it was recorded.

Additive manufacturing, I am still EAP now, always EAP. I also want to withdraw the submission, do you have any other journal recommendations?

Does anyone know the email address for the editor? I want to inquire about the status of my submission. If there is no response, I am considering submitting to a different journal.

Dawn, I am also a welder like you, it's been a month and a half now, and there hasn't been any change. I have been on EAP the whole time. How are you doing now?

The time from submission to acceptance of papers published in their journal is still acceptable, not too long. Why does EAP take so long? It's not just one or two people, many people have reflected on this.

It has been two months since I applied, and it is still in the EAP status. This speed...

Is there no UR, always EAP?

The team has submitted twice for review. The first time took eight months to come back for modifications, while the second time only took a little over a month. I don't know why there is such a big difference.

This journal is really disgusting. I submitted my manuscript and for a month and a half there was absolutely no communication. After a month and a half, they rejected it directly. I have submitted to many journals before, but this is the first time I have encountered such a situation. Luckily, I submitted to other journals afterwards and they responded much faster. Otherwise, my scholarship would have been in jeopardy.

It's a waste of time to submit to Desk Rejection for a month and a half!!! Be cautious when submitting. The direction is surface laser modification + friction wear. If you don't want it, just reject it. It's really disgusting to waste more than a month of my time!

Two weeks ago, I followed up with the editorial assistant, who said two days later that they were still waiting for feedback from the reviewers. It has been about three and a half months now, and it is still in the UR status.

Brother Orange, I submitted at the same time as you, but it's still in the EAP stage. It's taking too long.
