It is my first time to submit to this journal. There is a large acceptance range for this journal. The articles with experimental content are easier to be published. The impact factor keeps rising year by year. I hope it can be included in JCR Q1 in the future. I will continue to support it. The submission cycle attached: Received at editorial office: 5 Mar 2020; Article revised: 20 May 2020; Article accepted for publication: 3 Jun 2020.

The efficiency and character of the editor-in-chief Heng Hu are very good. The reviewers give professional comments that hit the nail on the head. The revision comments are very reasonable. In fact, SCI papers are usually reviewed to promote development and give a hand. The review is free. If the paper is poor, it is likely to be rejected. If the writing and scientific research level meets the requirements of the journal, it would basically be given a chance. Respect every scientific researcher who earnestly contributes to the development of society and the progress of mankind. Everyone is actually very busy. There is no obligation to do something for you. It is better to do your own thing and avoid making trouble for others.

Composite Structures—this journal published 216 articles in 2008, and 1286 articles were published in 2018. Over a period of ten years, the number of articles published annually has increased amazingly to 1,270 articles. Could it be that the technology has improved six times in the past ten years? It's self-evident. Just look at the data below. It’s definitely a typical unqualified journal, and has so many low-level articles beyond your imagination! ! !

I caution folks to pay attention to the opinions of all the reviewers during the revision process. Even if you don’t agree with their comments, you have to respond to each query in order to satisfy the editor. I didn’t agree with all the comments from one reviewer and didn’t address them in my response to reviewers document. As a result, I had to have my paper sent out for review again.

Typically, 2-6 reviewers are needed. If the editor invites N people and n agree to review, but some of them forget to review, resulting in only m reviews returned, then there are m reviewers (N>n>m).

How many reviewers' opinions are generally needed?

Feb 18, submit revision

The first round of review is really slow, but it gets faster later on.

Why was it rejected? Does it not fit the scope of the journal? It's okay, brother, I believe your next submission will be successful.
