The Engineering Failure Analysis journal provides an essential reference for analysing and preventing engineering failures, emphasising the investigation of the failure mechanisms, identifying the failure’s root causes, and proposing preventive actions to avoid failures.


The journal covers the following topics:
• Comprehensive critical reviews on failure mechanisms such as corrosion, environmentally assisted cracking, hydrogen embrittlement, creep, fatigue, wear, and structural collapse under extreme operation conditions and long-term actions. • Microscopic investigation of failure mechanisms in structural, functional and novel materials, additive manufacturing, electronic and biomaterials.

• Failure analysis of engineering components, structures or systems based on material characterisation coupled with computational methods, including bench tests, numerical simulations, artificial intelligence, digital twins and virtual reality modelling.

• Case studies detailing failures in major industrial sectors, including renewable energy, emerging fuels, power generation, oil and gas, transportation (aerospace, automotive, railway), mechatronics, biomedical, printed circuits and microelectronics, metallurgy, mining, civil constructions, and manufacturing.

• Investigation of public technical safety aspects involved in failure analysis and prevention, including examining regulatory agencies, legal considerations, codes and standards, environmental policies, public safety, ethical issues, and insurance.

• Role of engineering failure analysis in the design, materials, fabrication, installation, inspection, operation, maintenance, transportation, storage, life prediction, failure prevention, risk assessment, reliability analysis, forensic engineering, sustainability, service environment, process optimisation, structural integrity, safety evaluation and quality assurance.

2021.12.23 First submission
2022.5.8 First revision
Two reviewers gave nearly 30 suggestions for revisions, stating that the language organization and logic of my article were poor. It took me a month and a half to revise the article.
2022.6.21 Second submission
2022.8.16 Second revision
The review process this time took nearly two months, which was really slow. In the email response, they changed one reviewer, possibly because the editor thought that the efficiency of the previous reviewer was too low, so they found a third reviewer. Reviewer 1 agreed to accept the submission, while Reviewer 3 suggested updating the references as they were outdated. I spent two days updating and adding 15 references.
2022.8.18 Third submission
Just 4 minutes after the third submission, I received an acceptance email.

Overall, the reviewers selected by EFA are quite competent. They even pointed out errors in language usage and references to Chinese books cited in the article. I admire their meticulous attitude. The initial review process took 4 months, which can be considered acceptable for those who have some extra time. I hope EFA continues to improve.

1.23 with editor
1.23 under review
2.14 Major Revision - One reviewer raised 11 questions, overall positive, suggested acceptance after modifications
2.16 revise
2.17 under review
3.12 minor revision - After resolving the above-mentioned issues, the reviewer raised another sharp question
3.12 revise - Revised the same night
3.13 under review - Thought the editor would make the decision directly, but it was possibly sent back to the reviewer due to the importance of the question
3.20 accept
Previously, in our research group, it took around 6-7 months to get results for a publication, and one took 2 years to be accepted... Now, with the journal's faster review process, it is a good choice.
