Authors will receive review comments and decisions via email and/or the EasyChair system. If revision is required, authors must revise the manuscript in accordance with the reviewers’ comments and resubmit it within the specified timeline.

Peer-Review Process :

TSAE 2026 employs a rigorous double-blind peer-review process, in which both reviewer and author identities remain anonymous throughout the process. Each manuscript is reviewed by at least two independent expert reviewers with relevant expertise in the subject area.

Manuscripts are evaluated based on the following criteria:

• Relevance to TSAE 2026 themes and topics
• Scientific quality, originality, and significance
• Soundness and rigour of the methodology
• Clarity of presentation, quality of English, and compliance with the format requirements

Based on the reviewers’ recommendations, the TSAE Program Committee (PC) will make one of the following decisions: accept, accept with minor revision, accept with major revision, or reject.

Reviewers’ comments and editorial decisions will be communicated to the corresponding author. Authors of manuscripts requiring revision must address all reviewers’ comments and resubmit the revised version within the stipulated timeline. Failure to submit revisions on time or to adequately address reviewers’ concerns may result in rejection.

The Program Committee reserves the right to make final decisions on all submissions.

Ethics, Plagiarism, and Similarity Checks :

TSAE 2026 enforces a zero-tolerance policy on plagiarism. All submissions will be screened using Turnitin. Manuscripts may be rejected without review if they exceed acceptable similarity thresholds. Authors must ensure proper citations of all reproduced materials and must be fully informed about plagiarism and self-plagiarism prior to submission. TSAE adheres to COPE (Committee on Publication Ethics) principles and EDP Sciences publication ethics.

Authors are encouraged to refer to COPE (http://publicationethics.org) for all aspects of the publication ethics and strictly conform to the ethical rules described on https://www.matec-conferences.org/about-the-journal/publishing-policies-ethics.  

Plagiarism is of paramount concern. If the similarity index of a submitted manuscript exceeds 25%, it shall receive a desktop reject without being reviewed by expert reviewers.

Publication :

Only accepted AND presented articles will be published through Web of Conferences (EDP Sciences), subjected to final publisher checks. TSAE 2026 is not responsible for subsequent publication decisions made by the publisher.
