Peer-reviewing the papers

As Trans Tech Publishes only peer-reviewed papers, the SPCI-9 editor will have the obligation to review the papers presented. Therefore, 2 members of the International Scientific Committee will be assigned to peer-review each paper according to the attached form. The results of the reviewing process will be transmitted to the proceeding editor and the corresponding authors will be asked to make any changes required and submit the final version of the paper to the proceeding editor, who will then decide whether the paper is to be published or not. The same publication rules will apply to papers accepted for either oral or poster presentations.
