Abstract:The abstract should be limited to 300words and must concisely state what wasdone, how it was done, principal results,and their significance. The abstract willappear later in various indices of abstractsand should contain the most criticalinformation within the paper.
Key words: 4-7 key words.
1.Length of Manuscript
Paperssubmittedfor publication in ICFM8 should be up to 8 printedpages. This template for MS-WORD may be downloaded from It is advisable that authors use this template in order to reduce the amount of time spent on typesetting the manuscript. The font sizes and the manuscript specifications are outlined as follows.
2.Typing and Font Specification
Manuscripts should be typed single-spaced on one side of a sheet only, with margins of about 2.5 cm on each side of each page. The font should be Times New Roman for all the components of the manuscript with font size of 10 pt and regular attribute for the body of the text.
3.Elements of the Manuscript
Full length papers generally consist of thetitle, author(s) affiliation(s), abstract, keywords, nomenclature if applicable, introduction, body, conclusion, references,list of figures and table captions, and original figures and tables for reproduction. A paper may also include appendices and acknowledgments.
4.Titles
Capitalize the first letter of each word, i.e. use title case.
5.Author Names and Affiliation(s)
Author names on technical papers should include the name of each author followed by his/her company affiliation. If two or more authors have the same company affiliation, it should not be repeated after each name. Do not use titles such as Mr., Mrs., Ms., Miss, Prof. or Dr.
6.Abstract
The abstract should be limited to 300 words and must concisely state what was done, how it was done, principal results, and their significance. The abstract will appear later in various indices of abstracts and should contain the most critical information within the paper.
7.Keywords
Leave two blank lines after the abstract and type 6-10 key words and phrases (separated by semicolons) that can be used to index the paper, listing the keywords in order of importance for indexing. Do not repeat words or strings of words from the title. Capitalize the first letter of each word.
8.Nomenclature
A separate nomenclature section should list in detail the symbols used in the manuscript, their definitions, and their units in SI system. The nomenclature list should be an alphabetical order with Greek symbols following the alphabetical listing.
Subscripts and superscripts should follow Greek symbols and should be identified with a heading.
9.Figures
All figures must be cited in the body of the paper. Figures should be numbered in Arabic numerals in the order in which they are cited. Related figures or figure sections may be labeled with a shared numeral and consecutive lowercase letters (e.g., Figs. 1a through 1d). Figures should be the smallest size possible without loss of clarity, preferably designed to occupy a single column (8.2 cm of width) of a printed journal page. Examples are shown below.

10.Tables
All tables must be cited in the body of the paper. Tables should be numbered in Arabic numerals in the order they are cited in the paper. Tables should be the smallest size possible without loss of clarity. Table headings and column headings should be as concise as possible. Use 10-point Times New Roman bold, centered, for table headings and 10-point Times New Roman for body in tables (see example below).
Table 1. Example of a table
Brand / Size / Average Values (mm) / Standard(mm)
Tire 1 / Tire 2 / Tire 3
A / 225/70 R15 / 697 / 697 / 697 / 696
B / 689 / 689 / 689 / 696
C / 693 / 693 / 698 / 696
11.Mathematical Notations and Equations
To avoid errors in editing and typesetting, authors should clearly identify subscripts, superscripts, Greek letters, and other symbols.
Equations should be numbered using Arabic numerals placed in parentheses. Break equations to fit within the page. Avoid ambiguities in equations and fractions in text through careful use of parentheses, brackets, solidi (slants), etc. Note that in-text, fractions are usually “broken down” to fit in one line and confusion can result if terms are not properly labeled. Here is an example of the equation:
(1)
where:= Energy at break, N.m; =Force at break, N; = Perforation at break, mm.
12.Units and Abbreviations
The International Systems of Units (SI units) is required. Unit symbols should be used with measured quantities, i.e., 1 mm, but not when unit names are used in text without quantities, i.e., “a few millimeters.” Acronyms and abbreviations should be defined the first time they are used in text.
13.Paper Submission
Please submit your paper in MS-Word format using either through conference website by e-mail:
Acknowledgments
The same format as the body of the text should be followed.
