Summary: The submission was made from December 9th to March 5th when it was officially accepted. There was a major revision in between, but the review speed and editing efficiency were both very high. After receiving feedback on the major revision on January 22nd, minor revisions were made, but due to the Chinese New Year holiday and the start of the new semester at various universities, there was a delay of one month. The second revision was submitted on February 15th, and there were continuous format changes until February 20th. After February 20th, it was with the editor until March 4th when an email was sent to inquire about the progress. The same day, a reply was received with feedback on several format issues. Finally, on March 5th, it was officially accepted. If the author is proactive, manages time well, and minimizes errors, I believe it could be accepted within six weeks from submission to acceptance.

From January 22 until today, I have resubmitted the image three times with extremely high requirements. They have returned for editing. However, it must be said that the editing efficiency is very fast, and I have just submitted the revised draft again. I estimate that there will be results in these days. The last result given was acceptance after minor revisions. But there is no formal acceptance at the moment. If anyone is planning to submit to this journal, they must carefully read the image requirements. Strive to submit according to their format requirements on the first attempt.

The second review process is indeed fast, with minor revisions, but it is regarding formatting. When submitting, make sure to pay the 8500 layout fee.

2025.01-15 Revised draft submitted, update on 17th: Required Reviews Completed. As of today, the 21st, there is no news. I see that most reviews are usually received within two days (I had two weekend days in between). Starting to worry. If all three reviewers of the first review accept, will the second review be rejected? (I made revisions based on the reviewers' comments)

Don't choose OA based on online reviews. The editorial department will also send emails requesting payment for publication fees, ranging from a few thousand to nearly ten thousand.

The review comments have come back. All three suggest acceptance, but there are several formatting issues.

The editor is here, in this case, usually there is a third person who should also review, so we are waiting for another opinion. In another scenario, it is possible that two opinions are conflicting, and the editor does not intend to make an immediate decision, so a third person will review it.

Please pay the review fee first, otherwise the submission will not be sent for review. Also, it has been 2 weeks since the required review was completed, but I have not received any feedback yet. I am considering whether to send an email to Editor Wang to inquire about it.

Hello, I want to ask if the editor replies to the email saying that the revisions are accepted, and then sends the journal formatting requirements. After making the necessary changes according to the requirements, will there be another round of revisions required?

Hello, I would like to ask, if this wins, do I need to pay a layout fee? I am in a hurry, I want to invest recently, but I heard that I need to spend money.

It took a full five months, the efficiency was really low, both the journal and the reviewers were dragging their feet, and the publication fee was ridiculously expensive!

Additionally, a very important point is that the article has not been published online yet, meaning there is no issue, volume, page number, or DOI. Basically, the time between online publication and actual publication is over a year.

How long have you been with the editor?

I'd like to ask how long did you take with the editor at the end. I have also been revised several times on images and formats, and now I have been waiting for a long time to go back for revisions with the editor. I am a little worried, 111
