Research Paper

1 INTRODUCTION

Authors are advised to follow the format of the Word. Please note that these instructions are formatted for a final paper. This template can be directly used.

2 TEXT LAYOUT OF THE PAPER

2.1 Length of the paper

The number of pages is four (4) or six (6) including figures, tables and references. There is not distinction between poster and oral presentation. The paper must be written in English.

2.2 Structure of the paper

Please keep the following order

Title

Author(s), Affiliation(s)

Abstract

Keywords

Main text

References

2.2 Text

The first line of a paragraph should not be indented. Please use metric units in the text. Type primary headings in capital letters (bold). In the text reference can be made to equations (1), tables (Table 1), figures (Figure 1), and literature quotes (Terzaghi 1956; Marks and Smith 2003a). Use the first author’s surname followed by ‘et al.’ in citations for publication with three or more authors. When the researcher is part of the sentence, the reference does not need to be repeated at the end of that sentence. For example: Poulos (2001) finds evidence that… should be used instead of: Poulos (2001) finds evidence that… (Poulos 2001).

2.3 Table

All tables should be numbered consecutively and captioned.

2.3.1 Recommendations for preparing figures

The paper will be printed in black and white only. Keep figures as simple as possible. Avoid excessive notes.

Please ensure that all figures are of the highest quality. Photographs must be scanned at 300 dpi.

2.3.2 Arrangement of figures in the text

All figures should be numbered consecutively and captioned.

Insert Figures without frame.

Place Figures and captions centered.

Leave one line between figures and text (before and after).

The most convenient place for placing figures is at the top or bottom of a page. They must not be all together at the end of the paper.

Text within the figure should be readable.
