Peer Review Process

Manuscripts submitted to the Archives for Technical Science are subjected to rigorous peer review by the responsible editor and at least two anonymous and experienced referees selected by the Editorial Board.

Manuscripts are sent out for review electronically, and all correspondence takes place via e-mail, through the website.

Peer reviewers are asked to complete the review form, where they report their opinion on a number of evaluation criteria pertinent to the scientific and formal aspects of the manuscript. Reviewers’ comments and the completed review form will then be analysed by the assigned editor.All relevant information will be forwarded to the corresponding author to consider the required modifications and responses. The revised manuscript will then be re-evaluated by the editor, and the final decision will be communicated to the corresponding author.

Manuscripts may be rejected directly by the Chief Editor if considered to be out of scope or scientifically below the quality standards required by the journal. Poor English is also a reason for an instant reject.

Authors are given a maximum of four weeks for revision.
