I indeed did something that had not much innovation. Both reviewers required major revisions. One of them suggested to submit it as a technical note after revision. The editor rejected the manuscript, and the requirements for theory and innovation are very high.

I submitted the full text at the end of February 19, selected editor and experts, and then submitted all authors’ signature emails. We completed it very quickly, but the journal was dilatory, and the "Author Confirmation Form Completion submitted" was displayed until 07-Mar-2019. I urged the review. At first, I was very nervous, and I was afraid what I could do if it was directly rejected. However, I felt that the editorial office was still relatively polite and very nice. I was about to see how it was going in September. When it was not yet September, the review comments came back indeed. They let me change four short paragraphs, add an uncertainty analysis, and return within 30 days. Strive to finish this week! After "assigned to deputy editor" lasted for nearly 20 days, it was finally accepted! After anxious waiting, I continued to submit the copyright statement "Copyright Completion submitted". From February 28 to September 18, it took 10 days short of 7 months. I was tortured to death! It entered the "Awaiting Assignment to Batch" stage three days later! The proof was sent back on September 25! On October 22, I received an e-mail notification that they had prepared for publication online, and it could not be revised later, unless the publication of an erratum was sent!

A very good journal. It has been reviewed for a year and the editors and reviewers were very responsible. But for the assessment criteria, I would rather submit to this than other Q1 journals.

Although it is not comparable to other well-established journals with high impact factors, such as other innovative chemistry and material science journals, this is a very good journal for this discipline. After all, the engineering profession is hard!

I am also. What happened to the AIAA sub-journal in the end?

(0) Thank | CFJFM

Submission deadline on May 25, 2025, all authors completed the Author Confirmation Form by May 30. The associate editor will be assigned around June 10, and then there has been continuous Reviewer Selection for a month, what's going on? Are they still looking for reviewers?

At the same time, a minor revision for a AIAA-JSR sub-journal, after resubmission, there is also Reviewer Selection, and half a month has passed...

Has AIAA changed its process?

(1) Thank | 和尚庙住持

I haven't received it either. Maybe there are a lot of submissions being accepted recently, I'm not sure how long it usually takes.

May I ask how your proof is progressing? It's been over a month and a half since I accepted in mid-May, but I still haven't received any updates.

(0) Thank | 32san

Allow me to explain to both of you. The status of Reviewers Contacted is just as its literal meaning, indicating that the editor has sent out review invitations to the reviewers. Once the reviewers agree to review, the status will change to Under Review.

同问，“Reviewers Contacted”是表示什么意思呢？

Translation: Similarly, what does "Reviewers Contacted" mean?

Submitted in June 25th for the author verification form was sent to each author's email the following day, and each author needs to click on it to submit.

Is there currently no process for the Agree Form? There was one for submissions at the end of 23, but now the relevant link cannot be found in the system.

It has been two months since I was hired, but I still haven't received any news about the proofreading. I don't know what's going on.

Direction of structural optimization.

The article has been accepted for publication and requires signing a copyright transfer for sections A, B, C, D. How do people usually choose, what are the differences, and is A typically chosen?

May I ask what your current situation is?

The submission has been in "Reviewers Contacted" status for half a month. I would like to know if this means that reviewers have already been found and the review process has started, or if the journal is still in the process of finding reviewers.

The editor is very responsible and can handle things promptly.

I submitted an article before, and the editor kept it for three months in the same state as yours. Later, the chief editor directly rejected it without sending it for external review. If there is not a strong theoretical basis, I do not recommend submitting it. I am very frustrated.
