It's been a month, so it's okay to follow up. Different editors work at different speeds, and I feel like there's been a lot of submissions recently.

Submitted on May 24th, responded on May 29th, and still no response until now. Strange.

Submitted on May 24th, reviewed on May 29th, and still no response. It's strange. More than 20 days and still not sent for review?

Hello, do we need to confirm with each author on the journal's official website when sending out emails for submission? Or is it not necessary?

The entire process took two and a half months, making it one of the fastest in my research career. The responsible editor was also very efficient. The paper on hydrogen system control was well received, and although the first round of reviews required major revisions, it mainly involved adjusting images and adding parameters. Overall, the feedback was very friendly.

The review process is very fast. The first and second reviews are basically completed within a month.

May I ask where I can see how many reviewers were invited, how many reviewers accepted the review, and other related information in the submission system? This information is not available in the submission system.

May I ask where I can see the progress of the papers that have been sent to the reviewers? The submission system does not have this information.

May I ask where to find information on inviting reviewers, number of reviewers accepted, and other related details?

Is it true that only one out of the six reviewers invited accepted the review before inviting more reviewers?
