Plagiarism Policy

Multidisciplinary Engineering Science Open upholds the highest standards of academic integrity and strictly prohibits all forms of plagiarism, including verbatim copying, paraphrasing without proper citation, self-plagiarism, and data fabrication or falsification.

All manuscripts submitted to MESO are screened using iThenticate—a globally recognized plagiarism detection software—to ensure originality prior to the peer-review process. The acceptable similarity index threshold is determined by the editorial board, considering both overall and per-source similarity percentages.

If plagiarism or unethical behavior is detected at any stage—before or after publication—the editorial board reserves the right to reject, retract, or correct the manuscript, in accordance with the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) guidelines. Authors are responsible for the accuracy, authenticity, and originality of their submitted work.

Article Processing Charges (APCs)

To sustain the open-access publication model and ensure continuous editorial and technical quality, MESO applies a modest Article Processing Charge (APC) of 10 Omani Rials (OMR) per accepted manuscript.

This fee covers the costs associated with peer review management, digital archiving, copy editing, typesetting, DOI registration, website hosting, and online dissemination. There are no submission fees, no additional charges for color figures, and no hidden costs.

Payment of APC is only required after the manuscript has successfully passed peer review and has been accepted for publication. Waivers or discounts may be granted in exceptional cases, particularly for authors from low-income countries or under institutional agreements with the publisher.

Peer-Review Process

The Multidisciplinary Engineering Science Open employs a double-blind anonymous peer-review system, ensuring that both authors and reviewers remain unknown to each other throughout the review process to prevent bias and maintain objectivity.

Each manuscript submitted undergoes an initial editorial screening to verify its relevance to the journal’s scope, originality, structure, and compliance with ethical standards. Manuscripts that meet these criteria are then assigned to two or three expert reviewers in the relevant field.

Reviewers evaluate the submission based on:

  • Originality and contribution to knowledge

  • Methodological rigor and clarity

  • Relevance and technical accuracy

  • Quality of data analysis and interpretation

  • Clarity of presentation and logical organization

  • Significance of findings and potential impact

The review process typically takes between 2–4 weeks, depending on reviewer availability and manuscript complexity. Based on reviewers’ recommendations, the Editor-in-Chief may decide to:

  1. Accept the manuscript as is,

  2. Accept after minor or major revisions, or

  3. Reject the manuscript.

All editorial decisions are made impartially, based on scientific merit and alignment with the journal’s mission. Authors receive constructive feedback to improve their work, and revised manuscripts are re-evaluated before final acceptance.
