(Equations should be indented 2cm from the left margin, should have a reference number in parentheses flush with the right margin, and should be preceded and followed by a one-line space. For example,where M, K, Ü, and U are variables in the equation and should be described in the text. Awkward line spacing caused by in-line equations should be avoided. Equations should be referred to in the text as Eq.1, or as Eqs. 2, 3, and 4.)
