3. The structure of the scientific article by the IMRAD type (Introduction – Materials and Methods – Results – Discussion)

Introduction should be relatively brief. In the introduction, the authors should claim the general topic of the study, then reveal the theoretical and practical significance of the work, describe authoritative and accessible publications on this topic. In the introduction, the author also discloses the problems that have not been solved in previous studies, which this article is intended to solve.

Materials and methods. The purpose of this section is to present in a simple and direct way what was done, when, where, and how the data was analyzed and presented. It is necessary to describe in detail the methods and scheme of experiments (observations) that allow reproducing their results only by the text of the article. Avoid unessential information that is irrelevant to the results or may confuse the reader.

Results. In this section of the article the author reports on what he managed to achieve while the conducting the study. The author presents the obtained data in the form of graphs, figures, tables, schemes etc.

Discussion. This section contains an interpretation of the obtained results of the research, including correspondence of the obtained results to the research hypothesis, limitations of the study and generalization of its results, as well as suggestions for practical application and for the trend of the future research.

Conclusion. This part contains brief summary of the sections of the article without repeating the formulations adduced in them. It is necessary to compare the obtained results with the purpose indicated at the beginning of the article.

4. The list of non-textual references is being grouped in the order of numbering and drawn up in accordance with the State Standard 7.0.5-2008 «Bibliographic reference». If you are referring to electronic publications, you need to specify either DOI or URL (the location of the file or a specific page of the publication) in the list of references.

6. Information about authors is provided in both Russian and English: name, patronymic, surname (in full), position and place of work (with postal index), email address, academic degree and title. It is necessary to indicate the author responsible for conducting correspondence with the editorial office.

Typing requirements

The length of the article is 25 pages (20-30 thousand characters, including spaces). Pages are numbered with Arabic numerals throughout the text, numbering is continuous. Sections must have running numbers throughout the manuscript, indicated in Arabic numerals and written in paragraph indentation. Point size — 14, Times New Roman typeface, line spacing — one and a half. Symbol — for Greek letters, MathematicalPi2 — for handwritten and Gothic symbols.

Illustrations drawings, graphs, diagrams, diagrams, photographs, etc.) should be placed immediately after the text in which they are mentioned for the first time, or on the next page. If there is only one drawing, then it is designated as «Fig. 1». Numbering with continuous Arabic numerals. It is allowed to number illustrations within a section. In this case, the number of illustrations consists of the section numbers and the sequential number of illustrations.

Illustrations may have a name and explanatory data (text below the figure). The word «Figure» and the name are placed after the explanatory data and arranged as follows: Fig. 1. Device details. When referring to illustrations, you should write «... in accordance with Figure 2», etc.

Groups of pictures, united by one heading, should be labeled a, b, c, etc.

Requirements to illustrations

  • for the raster images, TIFF format with a resolution of 600 dpi and an absolute size of at least 1000 horizontal pixels, 256 shades of gray should be used;
  • for the photographs, use TIFF format with a resolution of at least 300 dpi and a horizontal size of at least 1000 pixels (preferably black and white photographs). Drawings should not lose their information content when transferred to the «grayscale» format.

Tables. The table title, if available, should reflect its content and be accurate and concise. The table title should be placed above the table on the left. The table should be placed immediately after the text in which it is mentioned for the first time, or on the next page. All tables must be referenced in a scientific work, for example: Table 1.

When transferring a part of a table to another page, the word «Table» and its number should be placed once on the right above the first part of the table, and above the other parts write: «Continued Table 1». It is allowed to number tables within a section. If the document has one table, then it should be labeled «Table 1».

Tables should be easy to read and type in at least with 12 font size.

Formulas and equations should be separated from the text into a separate line and typed with MathType (preferably) or Equation. Typing formulas from composite elements, where a table, or text, or an embedded frame is a part of the formula, is not allowed. It is not allowed as well to insert graphic elements in the form of formulas (figures) into the text. If the equation does not fit in one line, it should be moved after the equality sign (=) or after the plus (+), minus (—), multiplication (×), division (:) or other mathematical signs. The sign is repeated on the new line. When transferring a formula to a sign symbolizing the multiplication operation, use the «×» sign. Explanation of the senses of symbols and numerical coefficients should be given directly below the formula in the same sequence in which they are presented in the formula. Only common symbols and abbreviations should be used. The fractional part of a decimal number is separated by a comma, the number ranks are separated by a nonbreaking space.

Formulas should be numbered in ordinal numbering within the entire scientific article in Arabic numerals in parentheses in the rightmost position on the line.

References to the ordinal numbers of formulas are being given in the text in parentheses (... in formula (1)).

Formulas can be numbered within a section. In this case, the formula number consists of the section number and the ordinal number of the formula, separated by a dot (3.1).

The order of presentation of equations in scientific work is the same as the formulas. Vectors are highlighted in Bold font; no arrow is placed on top.
