˗   titles of sections and sub sections: bold, left, with spacing one line before and one line after,

˗   only English and Greek alphabet must be used in preparing the whole manuscript (except for the author’s names).

This text contains instructions for preparing manuscripts for the journal.

Each paper has to be written according to following order:

˗   title,

˗   author(s),

˗   affiliation(s),

˗   abstract,

˗   key words,

˗   body of the text with numerated sections and subsections,

˗   conclusions,

˗   acknowledgment (if necessary),

˗   nomenclature, and

˗   references.

Pages must have page numbers.

Additional instructions

Authors are obliged to use System International (SI) for Units (including Non/SI units accepted for use with the SI system) for all physical parameters and their units.

Numerated figures and tables, have to be implemented in the text, and obviously behind paragraph in which they have been mentioned. Only black and white drawings and sharp photographs are acceptable. The figures should be no wider than 140 mm in width and maximum 190 mm in high. In special cases, landscape position of pictures with height of minimum 100 mm and maximum 130 mm and width of 200 mm, can be used. Letters in the figures should be 2 mm high and the thinnest line thickness (for grid dimensions, arrows) should not be less than 0.2 mm.

Figures can also be sent (but, not obligated in advance) in separated files in a .TIF format. Figures and tables have to be prepared, as follows:

˗   figure captions – below figures, justified center;

˗   table captions – above tables; left justified with the table; one line should be left blank above captions and below tables.

All tables and figures must be referred in the text, e. g. Fig. 1, Tab. 3.

All equations, formulas, and expressions should be numbered in parentheses, e. g. (1) with right alignment, in the order of appearance in the text, and must be left justified with one line left above and below. Also, equations, formulas, and expressions should be referred within the text with eq., or formula, or expression, with corresponding number in parentheses, e. g. Eq. (5).

Specific instructions

Symbols for variables, marks, labels, etc. must be identical in the text, equations, figures, tables, and nomenclature.

Dimensions of variables in the text, if you need to use, put in brackets e. g. thermal conductivity [Wm–1K–1] not [W/m/K] or [W/mK], but, for example, the velocity as v = 70 km/h not [kmh–1].

The vectors need to be written regular with arrows above, matrix mark with regular capital letters of alphabet in brackets, and tensors bold.

Derivatives should be noted using Lagrange's notation, e. g. f', f'', f''', etc. Mean values should be noted by bar over the symbol. A point over a symbol denotes the flow rate.

Do not use “letter el” instead of “number 1”, letter “x” instead of “symbol ×”, letter “O” instead of zero “0”, symbol “-” instead of minus (–, Alt0150). For symbol degree “°” (e. g. °C, a = 45°) do not use letter “o” or zero but character Alt0176. Mark “%” should be written close to number, without blank space.

Complex equations do not write in sentences but write in separate rows. Such equations are not necessary to be numbered.

For multiplication, if it is necessary, use “×”, e. g. “m×s”, “mol×K”, or Pa×s, not “m × s”, “mol × K”, or Pa × s, but for multiplication of dimensions and vectors use “×” e. g. “15 × 30 × 20 cm” or “a×b”. Scalars multiples of vectors mark with “·” like as multiples with 10n. The complex exponent on basis “e” in equations need to be written using “exp” e. g. k_d = A exp (–E/RT).

The span of value “from-to”, need to be written like 250-300 °C.

Except at the beginning of the sentence, use abbreviations: Fig. for figure, Tab. for table, and Eq. for equation.

Words and abbreviations from Latin language, names of enterprises, journals, character of conference or symposium publications (proceedings, transactions, book of abstracts, etc.), numbers of journal volume, must be in italic style.

Examples for left justified formulas

Examples of left justified formulas are given below:

Formulas in the text

In equations, formulas or expressions in the text use character “/” for fraction mark and (...)^1/n instead of  . The superscripts and subscripts near by the mark should be written like these:

Comment for use of marks and symbols with regular setting

All mathematical operators (∆, d, ∂, O, grad, ...), mark of the characteristic numbers (Re, Pr, ...), the constants (π, e, g, R, ...), the logarithms (ln, log), the trigonometric functions (sin, sinh, cos, tg – not tan, arctg, ...), the sign for sum ∑, the sign for integral , the sign “f”, and other marks for function e. g. f(x,y,z), zero and all numbers except in text on italic style, chemical symbols except mol ratios like Ca/S, should be written with regular letters. In the subscript of variables for the letters which denote words do not use italic style, like as dp (particle diameter).

Acknowledgment

Generally the last paragraph of the paper is the place to acknowledge people (dedications), places, and financing (you may state grant numbers and sponsors here).

Nomenclature

The variables in nomenclature have to be written in alphabetical order and must have dimension in brackets e. g. [Jm2s–1]. The Greek symbols must be separated, as well as subscripts and superscripts, abbreviations, and acronyms.

The mark of variables with dimensions i brackets used and explained only once in the text, do not include into the nomenclature.

In nomenclature for mark of characteristic numbers give also the equation for that number e.g. Re – Reynolds number (=UD/n), [–]

References

References should be numbered in brackets in the order of appearance in the text, e. g. [1], [3, 4], [7-11], etc. The full references should be listed at the end of the paper (left alignment, hanging indentation) in numerical order of citation in the text.

For references having two authors, names of both authors should be given.

For more than two authors, only name of the first author should be given, followed by latin abbreviation et al.

If necessary to mention names of authors of the documents given in the list of References, write only family (last) name of the first author (or both authors if there are two authors).

For more than two authors only first author's family (last) name should be written, followed by et al.

Original titles of the papers cited must be translated in English, followed by (in ...........language).

For books which are not written in English, title should be given on the original language (for languages not using latin alphabet, English transcription should be used), and original language have to be indicated. Title translated in English have to be added in brackets.

Data in references should be in IEEE Style (see more https://pitt.libguides.com/citationhelp/ieee):

In-text citing It is not necessary to mention an author's name, pages used, or date of publication in the in-text citation. Instead, refer to the source with a number in a square bracket, e.g. [1], that will then correspond to the full citation in your reference list.

Place bracketed citations within the line of text, before any punctuation, with a space before the first bracket.

Number your sources as you cite them in the paper. Once you have referred to a source and given it a number, continue to use that number as you cite that source throughout the paper.

When citing multiple sources at once, the preferred method is to list each number separately, in its own brackets, using a comma or dash bteween numbers, as such: [1], [3], [5] or [1] - [5].

The below examples are from Murdoch University's IEEE Style LibGuide.

Examples of in-text citations:

"...end of the line for my research [13]."

"This theory was first put forward in 1987 [1]."

"Scholtz [2] has argued that..."

"Several recent studies [3], [4], [15], [16] have suggested that...."

"For example, see [7]."

Creating a Reference List The Reference List appears at the end of your paper and provides the full citations for all the references you have used.  List all references numerically in the order they've been cited within the paper, and include the bracketed number at the beginning of each reference.

Create a hanging indent for each reference with the bracketed numbers flush with the left side of the page. The hanging indent highlights the numerical sequence of your references.

The author's name is listed as first initial, last name. Example: Adel Al Muhairy would be cited as A. Al Muhairy (NOT Al Muhairy, Adel).

The title of an article is listed in quotation marks.

The title of a journal or book is listed in italics.
