Hello, may I ask how much weight reduction is considered satisfactory?

It's torture, the deadline is approaching, and there is no progress at all...

Excuse me, esteemed experts, how long does it take for With Editor?

It has been 4 months under review, and both reviewers have not given any feedback. I am frustrated.

Submission Process:
March 23: Submitted to CMS Journal
March 25: Status changed to "under review"
April 18: Received reviewer comments, only one comment, and the issues were relatively easy to address.
May 3: Revised manuscript was submitted, and on May 4, the status changed back to "with editor"
May 12: Status changed to "under review"
June 17: Direct acceptance
The revision process took a lot of time, but overall, I am quite satisfied. Finally, there is some explanation for my achievements during my master's program.

Return for repairs on May 1, 2023. There are two reviewers, one major revision and one minor revision. One reviewer has been procrastinating for a long time and still hasn't reviewed it. In addition, another reviewer has been added. Now it is in the state of "required review completed" for over a week, and the editor hasn't received any updates. I'm really scared because I'm about to graduate and I have found a job, but I need to have my diploma and degree certificate before starting the job. What should I do? It's so difficult, I'm on the verge of a breakdown! ???

The official estimation of submission processing time on the platform is not very accurate. I submitted to a European mechanics journal next door, and it usually takes about 3 months for external review. However, it was sent for external review in just 4 days. The official response from this journal stated that the external review process takes approximately 2 weeks. I was hoping for a quick submission, but it has been over twenty days and it is still "with editor". It's too slow.

Under review for 3 months, oh my god. It shows that two reviewers have accepted the review but have not provided their feedback. I see that the comments section is usually quite fast, why is mine taking so long?

Submitted by the end of June 2022, review comments will be provided in mid-July, and acceptance will be confirmed by mid-September. The efficiency is acceptable as there were some data added and questions answered, but overall, not many modifications were made. Finally, I want to promote my idols, Jia Ran Diana and Bella Bella. Jia Ran is so cute, Rang Rang, please take me with you. Oh, and also, strengthen Eagle Zuo in the plan and weaken Tian Dao Chao.

The final paper has been accepted, without delaying graduation.
Overall, the editor was still very responsible, and the processing speed was fast. In my case, it was mainly delayed by the reviewer.

Don't worry, it's usually very fast, and now it has been two months, so the results should come out soon.

The first paper to the new institution, although the submission took a little longer, the opinions from the editors and reviewers were very professional and targeted. It took 4 months from submission to acceptance, and overall, the experience was very good, and I also highly appreciate this journal. I hope the journal will continue to improve.

January 13, 2023 Told me there is an issue with Data Availability and I need to supplement the data source
January 16, 2023 Submitted again, the review process was quite fast
March 1, 2023 Major revision, given 60 days to make changes
March 24, 2023 Submitted revised manuscript
May 9, 2023 Today is May 9th, and I still haven't received the revision comments. There is one reviewer who keeps delaying, is it normal to have such a long second review time? I'm about to graduate soon, what should I do? 555555555555 (crying emojis)

Could it be something related to computational condensed? This journal is not indexed...

Hahaha, can't stop laughing.

The journal is quite good, and the reviewers are also very serious. The only problem is that the questions asked are too sharp!

Quite a good magazine, the number of citations for the articles is quite extreme. Articles on computational methods/software package development have many citations, often exceeding a hundred after three or four years. However, articles on applied materials calculations have very few citations. On average, each article has fewer citations, which affects the impact factor.
For those who do computational work, it is a pretty good small magazine. However, it is not popular domestically, with low ranking and impact factor. Many schools do not count it as performance points. But renowned foreign theorists prefer this magazine, and many catalysis experts have published classic articles in it.

It is this article. First-principles investigation of interfacial stability, mechanical behavior, and failure mechanism of β-SiC(1 1 1)/Al(1 1 1) interfaces.

Then, every day afterwards was filled with anxiety, checking the status. Every night, I dreamt that the article was still under review. In reality, I have been suffering from insomnia for two consecutive months, unable to fall asleep at night and only managing to sleep past 5 am. Today, in the early morning of December 7th, exactly one month later, I received the acceptance. At noon today, the communication teacher (mentor) sent me a screenshot on WeChat, informing me that it was indeed good news. I quickly shared this news with my mentor, family, and classmates. The entire process took five months, and the editor's efficiency was incredibly high, although the reviewers may have been a bit slow, they were still diligent. Looking at the acceptance email, it seems that the editor did not send the revised manuscript to the reviewers for minor revisions. I noticed that the reviewer for minor revisions did not reply for a second review. The reviewer for major revisions only made one comment, expressing their belief that we had made the necessary revisions. On another note, for these major revisions, we had to reference several related articles, and we ended up citing six or seven papers from the two professors mentioned. Finally, I wish the journal continued success and smooth editing, and I also want to express my gratitude to the two reviewers for their efforts.

Submitted on July 18th, received the first review notice in mid-September. There were two reviewers, one major revision and one minor revision. The editor requested a substantial modification and gave a two-month deadline. Although two months seemed a little long, the two reviewers still reviewed it very carefully, pointing out issues with figures, words, and even some punctuation marks. Some of the questions were indeed difficult to answer, but they were crucial for improving the article. Both reviewers agreed that the writing level of the article was indeed good and well-written. Finally, it took two months to carefully revise each modification, but the process was truly painful. The reviewer advocating for major revision even requested changing the title, so one can imagine how this process was... It was ultimately submitted on November 5th (the corresponding professor always said there was a 70% chance, but one had to be prepared for rejection).

After submission, it was quickly sent for review, but it was unclear whether the appropriate reviewer could not be found or if the reviewer had been continuously delaying the review of the paper. When 50 days passed without any news, an inquiry was sent. The editorial department replied promptly, stating that one reviewer took 40 days to complete the review, while the other had not reviewed it yet. They mentioned that they were waiting for the opinion of the second reviewer, which took a total of 5 months, with one inquiry made in between. Finally, the opinions came back, totaling 5 points, and the responses were relatively good. The revised version was sent back after a week and accepted the following day.

Submitted the big revision in less than a month, the questions raised were quite difficult. ELF did some polishing, but other articles in the middle caused a delay of two months. Then, the minor revision was submitted for review, which took a little over two weeks. The response was completed in 2 days, which was quite fast. However, I don't know when it will be available online.

Excuse me, are you an editor? How long does it take for this journal to send the submission to the editor for review?
Specious 2021-08-16
Computational Materials Science (CMS) and Modelling and Simulation in Materials Science and Engineering (MSMSE) are two leading journals in the field of materials computation and simulation. CMS has a higher impact factor and ranking, while MSMSE tends to have better paper quality. MSMSE has a higher proportion of Chinese researchers, accounting for 20%, whereas CMS only has 43%. However, CMS receives more attention overall.

After submission, it was "Under Review" for one week. It has been 43 days since May 12, 2021, and there has been no change in status. I am planning to send an email to inquire about it. The review process for this journal seems a bit slow.
