What happens now?

This submission is currently in a pre-review state which means we are waiting for an editor to be assigned and for them to find some reviewers for your submission. This may take anything between a few hours to a couple of weeks. Thanks for your patience :smile_cat:

You can help the editor by looking at this list of potential reviewers to identify individuals who might be able to review your submission (please start at the bottom of the list). Also, feel free to suggest individuals who are not on this list by mentioning their GitHub handles here.

@openjournals/dev initially the repo link above was to the specific paper location rather than the repo itself, could that be causing these errors?

Hi @thelfer, thanks for your interest in JOSS. Before we get moving on this, could you clarify how this submission is research software? It looks like it cannot be used by itself, but only by MFront, which is the actual "software" that others would use.

Looks like we failed to compile the PDF

Hi @thelfer, thanks for your interest in JOSS. Before we get moving on this, could you clarify how this submission is research software? It looks like it cannot be used by itself, but only by MFront, which is the actual "software" that others would use.

Maybe the paper is not clear enough on this.

MFront generates shared library that must be called by the thermo-mechanical solvers. It is a mature project with has been described and used in many scientific papers.

The MFrontGenericInterfaceSupportè (MGIS) provides tools to the solvers'developers to load those shared libraries and handle the constitutive laws generated byMFront`. It is a relatively young project and the goal of the paper is to present it.

One may say that:

  • MFront is meant to be used by the user of thermo-mechanical solvers.
  • MGIS is meant to be used by the thermo-mechanical solvers' developpers.

In a sense, those projects don't have the same "audience".

I think I selected

Kevin-Mattheus-Moerman

when submitting the paper.

@kyleniemeyer BTW, when I tried to check the generation of the paper, I got a page telling me that the build was successful but couln't dowload the pdf (file not file).

@thelfer regarding the image errors in the paper:

  • we don't support SVG images, so please convert that one to a PDF (or something)
  • I'm not sure what's causing the other error, with MCAS_disc_hole_cyclic_show_axes.png. That may not actually be an error, but I can't tell.

Regarding the other question, we do some initial checks before assigning an editor to handle the submission—thanks for your patience.

@kyleniemeyer This is fixed now.

  • I'm not sure what's causing the other error, with MCAS_disc_hole_cyclic_show_axes.png. That may not actually be an error, but I can't tell.

@kyleniemeyer This is quite strange. I just put the whole figure declaration in one line and now it workds. This was not an issue with github engine nor with my version of pandoc.

Anyway, the pdf looks good now. Thank you for your help.

@openjournals/dev initially the repo link above was to the specific paper location rather than the repo itself, could that be causing these errors?

Yes, Whedon doesn't know how to handle that.

@thelfer - do you think you could reduce your bibtex file to only include the entries that you're actually citing in this paper?

@arfon done.

@arfon Sorry if I did not do things properly. Is there something I could do ?

Is there something I could do ?

No problem. I've tried to improve the JOSS UI to make it clear we want a URL like this:
https://github.com/thelfer/MFrontGenericInterfaceSupport rather than something like this: https://github.com/thelfer/MFrontGenericInterfaceSupport/blob/master/docs/papers/joss/paper.md

Wouldn't that trigger another issue. I mean, wouldn't it be normal to have several publications (not necessary in joss) in the same repository ?

Possibly, although Whedon only looks for a file called paper.md. This hasn't caused any issues in the last ~900 submissions so I think this is an edge case not worth worry about (too much) :-)

@Kevin-Mattheus-Moerman this looks to be in your wheelhouse, can you edit? (I think you have another week or two before you're on duty as AEiC 😄)

@kyleniemeyer sorry I would be interested but I have a conflict of interest here since one of the authors is a collaborator and friend of mine (Thomas Nagel)

@whedon list reviewers

Here's the current list of reviewers: https://bit.ly/joss-reviewers

@Kevin-Mattheus-Moerman no problem.

@katyhuff could you edit this one?

@kyleniemeyer I won't have the bandwidth for this. I'm a little behind on the other submissions I'm handling at the moment, and still catching up.

@kyleniemeyer I can take this one.

@whedon assign @arfon as editor

OK, the editor is @arfon

@thelfer - could you please take a look at this list of reviewers and suggest a few names for people who might be able to review this submission? Please list them without their @ to avoid pinging them (e.g. arfon vs @arfon).

Also, @Kevin-Mattheus-Moerman - if you have any suggestions for potential reviewers I'd welcome them 😄

@arfon The following people have indicated "mechanical engineering" in their profile. I more or less ordered them by relevance (this is very subjective):

  • ctdegroot
  • shibabrat
  • nnadeau
  • trallard
  • srmnitc
  • moorepants
  • kyleniemeyer
  • CELavecchia

:wave: @CELavecchia & @srmnitc - would you be willing to review this submission for JOSS?

@arfon @thelfer I can review this submission. But I am on holidays until the 7th of January. Is it okay if I start after the 7th? If that is the case, I can take this submission.

@srmnitc Fine for me. Thanks

@arfon @thelfer I can review this submission. But I am on holidays until the 7th of January. Is it okay if I start after the 7th? If that is the case, I can take this submission.

Yes, that sounds great, thanks! I'll add you as a reviewer now but won't start the actual review thread until I've found a second reviewer.

@whedon add @srmnitc as reviewer

OK, @srmnitc is now a reviewer

@arfon here are some more potential (FEA related) reviewers:
@chrisrichardson, @IgorBaratta, @sebastkm, @lindsayad, @mikaem

@chrisrichardson, @IgorBaratta - would either of you be willing to review this submission for JOSS? We carry out our checklist-driven reviews here in GitHub issues and follow these guidelines: https://joss.readthedocs.io/en/latest/review_criteria.html

Hi @arfon , I am back from holidays and now I can review this submission.
I don't have a strong background in mechanics, but I make myself available for the review.

Great, thanks @IgorBaratta! I'll add you now and start the review.

@whedon add @IgorBaratta as reviewer

OK, @IgorBaratta is now a reviewer

@whedon start review

OK, I've started the review over in https://github.com/openjournals/joss-reviews/issues/2003. Feel free to close this issue now!

@thelfer, @srmnitc, @IgorBaratta - see you all over in #2003 where the review will take place.
