Manuscript preparation

  1. Language: Manuscript should be written in double-spaced English on A4 or letter-size paper.
  2. Length: A full paper including figures and tables should not exceed 10 published pages (equivalent to 12500 words), and a short note should not exceed 5 pages (equivalent to 5000 words).
  3. Abstract and Keywords: An abstract less than 300 words must be provided with no more than 6 keywords given below the abstract.
  4. Authors' affiliations: Authors' affiliations, including authors' addresses, phone numbers and email addresses, must be specified. The corresponding author should also be indicated.
  5. Equations: Equations must be numbered on the right-hand side. Leave space above and below all equations. Equation numbers mentioned in the text should be enclosed in parenthesis, e.g. (12).
  6. Figures and tables: All illustrations and tables must be numbered and given captions. Photographs should be made on glossy papers with strong contrasts. The lettering should be large enough so that it is clearly visible when reduced.
  7. Units: Use the international system units (SI units).
  8. References: To cite references in the text, use the author-date method: list the last names of the authors, then the year. Prepare a reference section listing all references alphabetically by last name of the first author. Examples of layout of references are given below.
