- The first page should contain the title of the paper, name(s) and affiliation(s) of the authors.
- Full name, affiliation, email of each co-author should be clearly indicated either in a seperate file, or a seperate page in the source paper file. All authors should agree with the submission.
- Abstract should consist of one paragraph not containing numbered references. All nonstandard symbols and abbreviations must be defined.
- Headings and subheadings of the paper (e.g., abstract, introduction, formulation, methods, results, discussion, conclusion) sections should be clearly indicated.
- Tables and figures should have captions. The maximum width for table and figure is 11 cm.
- Symbols, line thickness, and lettering should be in proper scale in relation to the overall figure size so that reduction will not reduce clarity. Times or Helvertica font is suggested to be used in figures.

- Figures should use a high enough resolution and be large enough to be easily readable on a computer screen and on paper when printed out.
- Submit photographic images with high-resolution .eps, .jpg or .png files. Instrument screen captures are not suitable for publication, and the data should be replotted. If scanned images have to be used, make scans with as high a resolution as possible (preferably 600 dpi or higher) and then scale the figure to its final size.
- The fonts in figures should be comparable in size to those in the main text.
- References must contain full title, place and year of publication, and be listed at the end of the article in the reference section. Technical reports, memos, unpublished or to be published articles must not be listed as references, only published work in journals and books may be cited as references.
