ABSTRACT
Each manuscript requires an abstract with a maximum length of 250 words.
Keywords: keyword1; keyword2
1. GENERAL REMARKS
Submissions should be written in correct English. Please consult a native speaker or a knowledgeable colleague for help, if necessary.
Please submit your manuscript as one Word document including the entire text as well as all tables and figures. Please note that manuscripts must have 10 – 25 pages original research papers and reviews. Large numbers of tables and figures should be avoided.
2. MANUSCRIPT LAYOUT
2.1. File formats and templates
Please prepare your manuscript electronically using Microsoft Word. All textual material of the paper (including tables, captions, etc.) should be in a single file. Please use Times New Roman, 11 points.
Section headings on all (preferably not more than three levels) should be consecutively numbered by decimal numbers as 1, 1.1, 1.1.1 etc.
2.2. Figures and tables
Figures must be carefully prepared and submitted ready for reproduction. Lettering and symbols should be clear and large enough in the final figure size. Avoid small open symbols, small dots, small decimal points, and hairlines, close-dotted or short-dashed lines. Draw a closed axes frame in diagrams with the axis titles (quantity followed by the unit in brackets) parallel to the corresponding axis, outside the frame. For numbers, use a decimal point instead of a comma. For symbols and units, use Greek and special characters.
Table 1. Tables will appear left-aligned, unless it is very wide and requires the whole page width.
No / data 1 / data 2 / data 31 / 23 / 89 / 788
2 / 64 / 73 / 733
Fig. 1. Figures will appear left-aligned. Please note that the final phrase of the caption ends with a period.
When composing a figure (Fig. 1), avoid using separate drawing elements in Word such as arrows, symbols or letters. All elements of a figure should be grouped together as one graphics object.
3.3. Quantities, units, and equations
Care should be taken to distinguish subscripts, superscripts, and special symbols. Units should be written in upright letters (not in italics) with a short space to the number before. SI units should be used.
Equations may be numbered sequentially. Except for small in-line equations, they should appear on separate lines, such as
(1)
In the text, equations may be referred to by writing “... in Eq. (1)”. At the beginning of a sentence, use the full form “Equation (1) shows ...”.
3.4. Formatting of references
References should be numbered consecutively in the order in which they are first mentioned in the text. Identify references in text, tables, and legends by Arabic numerals in square brackets.
Some examples about citation of journal articles, books and websites are shown below.
