Introduction

MEST2023 extends an invitation to prospective authors from universities and diverse organizations to contribute papers within the realm of mechanical engineering, manufacturing, materials sciences, and related interdisciplinary engineering domains. This conference is an integral component of the broader event series known as the International Summit on Science, Technology, and Humanity (ISETH) 2023, which is organized by Universitas Muhammadiyah Surakarta.

The 7th Mechanical Engineering, Science and Technology (MEST2023) stands as an annual gathering hosted by the Mechanical Department at Universitas Muhammadiyah Surakarta. Authors representing universities and various entities are encouraged to submit their research papers. The conference serves as a platform for scholarly exchange, offering swift presentations of articles encompassing experimental, numerical, and theoretical investigations that illuminate pivotal subjects including internal flow in mechanical, thermal, and fluid systems, aerothermodynamics, heat and mass transfer, multiphase flow, turbulence modelling, combustion, engineering thermodynamics, thermophysical properties of materials, as well as measurement and visualization techniques. Contributions span from intriguing and impactful research with immediate industrial applications to advanced educational resources, technology dissemination, and best practices.

Authors who submit to this event agree (if the papers are accepted) to the following terms:

Terms of submission

Papers must be submitted on the understanding that they have not been published elsewhere (except in the form of an abstract or as part of a published lecture, review, or thesis) and are not currently under consideration by another journal published by any publisher. The submitting author is responsible for ensuring that the article's publication has been approved by all the other co-authors. It is also the author's responsibility to ensure that the articles emanating from a particular institution are submitted with the approval of the necessary institution. Only an acknowledgment from the editorial office officially establishes the date of receipt. Further correspondence and proof will be sent to the author(s) before publication unless otherwise indicated. It is the condition of submission of a paper that the authors permit editing of the paper for readability.

Peer Review Process

The submitted papers will be evaluated by the committee to check the suitability of the papers with the conference's focus and scopes. Afterward, all papers that have passed the initial review by the committee, will be double-blindly reviewed by two international reviewers before the presentations. The authors are given a chance to submit the revision no later than 10 days after the conference date. Once they pass the presentation, then the articles will be sent to the committee for content review before collected to be submitted to Internationally Indexed Proceeding.

Initial Review

The track director evaluates each manuscript in the submission track to determine if its topic and content is suitable for consideration for the conference before being reviewed. Manuscripts that do not meet minimum criteria are returned to the authors. This is in the best interest of the authors who could then decide to either correct the problems or to submit the manuscript to a more appropriate venue, avoiding delays from a lengthy review process that would nonetheless lead to rejection.

Peer Review

Manuscripts that pass the initial review by the Track Directors, will be sent to several referees based on their expertise. Each manuscript is reviewed by at least two referees. The referees are asked to evaluate the manuscript based on its originality, soundness of methodology, impact to design research, and relevance to design practices. To facilitate timely publication, referees are asked to complete their reviews and provide individual critiques within two weeks. After collecting the referees' reports, the Track Director makes a recommendation on the acceptability of the manuscript.

Acceptance Decision

Based on the referees' comments, the Track Director makes a final decision on the acceptability of the manuscript and communicates to the authors the decision, along with referees' reports. The status reports to reviewers should identify the reviewers of each paper, the final decision can be "Accept Submission", "Revisions Required", or "Decline Submission." The revised version should be submitted considering the review comments.

Plagiarism

The authors should make sure that the manuscript pass a criterion of less than 20 percents similarity to other publications.
