Submission: Authors are requested to submit their papers editorkalaharijournal@gmail.com

Indexing and Abstracting : The journal is index in Scopus, Worldcat, Google Scholar, Research Gate... 

Frequency: IJME published two issues per year from 2016-2020; three issues in the year 2021 and 2022 onwards IJME aims to publish 12 issues per year.

Abbreviation:        Int. J. Mech. Eng. 

Article Processing Charges: The journal publish articles in Open Access Model. In this Open Access model, the publication cost should be covered by the author's institution or research funds. These Open Access charges replace subscription charges and allow the publishers to give the published material away for free to all interested online visitors. The charges for page charges in the journal is Rs. 25,000/- (for Indian Authors) and $ 750 (for foreign authors).

Plagiarism: All the articles will be check through Turnitin Software before the publication of the journal. 

International Journal of Mechanical Engineering currently has an acceptance rate of 40%. The average time between submission and final decision is 1 month and the average time between acceptance and publication is 3 to 4 month. 

Review Process:  This journal uses double-blind review, which means that both the reviewer and author identities are concealed from the reviewers, and vice versa, throughout the review process. The articles is submitted to minimum 3 reviewers specialize on the topic for their reviews.    

Corrections to Published Work: 

Honest errors are a part of research and publishing and require publication of a correction when they are detected. We expect authors to inform the Journal’s Editor of any errors of fact they have noticed or been informed of in their article once published. Corrections are made at the journal’s discretion. The correction procedure depends on the publication stage of the article, but in all circumstances a correction notice is published as soon as possible. Details can be found on the Call for Papers section of the journal website. 

Retractions: 

Retractions are considered by journal editors in cases of evidence of unreliable data or findings, plagiarism, duplicate publication, and unethical research. We may consider an expression of concern notice if an article is under investigation. All retraction notices will explain why the article was retracted. The retraction procedure depends on the publication stage of the article.
