I feel that it is still a very good journal, the processing efficiency is quite high, and it is not procrastinated. Unfortunately, it fell into Q3. I’m disappointed.

Excuse me, everyone, how long does the reviewer invited status usually take? It has been in this state for more than 20 days. I found that the average review cycle given by Elsevier is only 1 month. Thank you.

It was my first time to submit to the journal, the efficiency of which was quite high. The questions raised by the two reviewers were more professional, compared to those of composite structure journals. The review comments were given in over 2 months, and it was accepted in less than 4 months. There are not many articles in this journal, and it is quite recognized in impact dynamics and engineering technology. If it is so fast in the future, the impact factor will definitely rise (although it fell in 2018). Recommend it.

Slow review but good overall quality. Generally about 3 months. Strict reviews with high quality experts. Thorough understanding of the problem.

Can I ask if the choice of editor is the chief editor (Magnus Langseth)? Is the chief editor's initial review very slow? I thought that I could only choose the chief editor in the option for selecting editors, and it seems that not selecting him also works as there is a red exclamation mark.

I submitted my first paper in early 2023, and it was accepted after three and a half months. Two years later, I submitted again, just to keep track of the submission cycle!

Is it normal that it has been 5 days and it is still submitted to the journal?

(0) Thank | horse

Wait for one more week. If it doesn't work out, we will withdraw the submission. I can't wait any longer.

The key is too different from the official website data. If I had known it would be so slow, I wouldn't have invested. It's a dilemma...

Recently, everything is very slow, especially when it comes to the editing process, including submission, decision-making, and even the second round of submission. And it's not just a few editors who are like this. It's widely recognized in the field, there's no way around it, haha!

Submitted to journal, it was quickly reviewed within 1-2 days, and has been with the editor for almost 2 months.

(0) Thank | DY321

I would like to ask everyone, isn't the initial review of this journal supposed to be only 3 days? The submission deadline was 4-8, the deadline for the initial review was 4-11, and it still says "we". What does this mean? If it's not three days, could you please change the time? I'm in a hurry to graduate.

Has the status of your paper "submitted to Journal" been ongoing for two months?

There is no point in saying more, submitted to the editor on 20250223 and still awaiting response.

The first submission to IJIE took 221 days, with a complex and lengthy process. Thanks to the editors for their continuous efforts in finding reviewers, hoping that IJIE will continue to improve!

Is it that slow?

(0) Thank | good 1

I am the same, it has been a long time, just missing one person.

After the rework, there are only two reviewers in total, one of whom has not responded for nearly three months. The reviewing speed is very slow, and it may lead to a delay in graduation.

(0) Thank | 回应

My name is also Dirk Mohr. The reviewer took three months to provide feedback and only returned the revised manuscript after being reminded once. It has been a month since the review was completed, and I have reminded them four or five times, but there has been no response yet.

For seven months in a year, rejection, the editing work efficiency is low. The reviewers found are far from the front line of scientific research, very incompetent, deliberately making things difficult. Have you studied mechanics to prove formulas derived from the assumption of linear elasticity?
