How to format your references using the Flow, Turbulence and Combustion citation style

This is a short guide how to format citations and the bibliography in a manuscript for Flow, Turbulence and Combustion. For a complete guide how to prepare your manuscript refer to the journal's instructions to authors.

Using reference management software

Typically you don't format your citations and bibliography by hand. The easiest way is to use a reference manager:

Paperpile	The citation style is built in and you can choose it in Settings > Citation Style or Paperpile > Citation Style in Google Docs.
EndNote	Find the style here: output styles overview
Mendeley, Zotero, Papers, and others	The style is either built in or you can download a CSL file that is supported by most references management programs.
BibTeX	BibTeX syles are usually part of a LaTeX template. Check the instructions to authors if the publisher offers a LaTeX template for this journal.

Journal articles

Those examples are references to articles in scholarly journals and how they are supposed to appear in your bibliography.

Not all journals organize their published articles in volumes and issues, so these fields are optional. Some electronic journals do not provide a page range, but instead list an article identifier. In a case like this it's safe to use the article identifier instead of the page range.

A journal article with 1 author

Lubensky, T.C.: LIQUID CRYSTALS: New Banana Phases. Science. 288, 2146–2147 (2000)

A journal article with 2 authors

Binder, P.-M., Pipes, R.M.: Applied mathematics: how chaos forgets and remembers. Nature. 510, 343–344 (2014)

A journal article with 3 authors

Bradley, R.S., Hughes, M.K., Diaz, H.F.: Climate change. Climate in Medieval time. Science. 302, 404–405 (2003)

A journal article with 4 or more authors

Curie, C., Panaviene, Z., Loulergue, C., Dellaporta, S.L., Briat, J.F., Walker, E.L.: Maize yellow stripe1 encodes a membrane protein directly involved in Fe(III) uptake. Nature. 409, 346–349 (2001)

Books and book chapters

Here are examples of references for authored and edited books as well as book chapters.

An authored book

Hampel, F.R., Ronchetti, E.M., Rousseeuw, P.J., Stahel, W.A.: Robust Statistics. John Wiley & Sons, Inc., Hoboken, NJ (2005)

An edited book

A chapter in an edited book

Ranawana, R., Palade, V.: A Neuro-Genetic Framework for Multi-Classifier Design: An Application to Promoter Recognition in DNA Sequences. In: Jain, L.C., Palade, V., and Srinivasan, D. (eds.) Advances in Evolutionary Computing for System Design. pp. 71–94. Springer, Berlin, Heidelberg (2007)

Web sites

Sometimes references to web sites should appear directly in the text rather than in the bibliography. Refer to the Instructions to authors for Flow, Turbulence and Combustion.

Blog post

Reports

This example shows the general structure used for government reports, technical reports, and scientific reports. If you can't locate the report number then it might be better to cite the report as a book. For reports it is usually not individual people that are credited as authors, but a governmental department or agency like "U. S. Food and Drug Administration" or "National Cancer Institute".

Government report

Government Accountability Office: Advance Sheets: Volume 74, Decisions of the Comptroller General of the United States. U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC (1995)

Theses and dissertations

Theses including Ph.D. dissertations, Master's theses or Bachelor theses follow the basic format outlined below.

Doctoral dissertation

Kim, H.: Prediction and Elimination of Galling in Forming Galvanized Advanced High Strength Steels (AHSS), (2008)

News paper articles

Unlike scholarly journals, news papers do not usually have a volume and issue number. Instead, the full date and page number is required for a correct reference.

New York Times article

Kelly, M.: Clinton May Carry the Campaign Into Office, (1992)

In-text citations

References should be cited in the text by sequential numbers in square brackets:

This sentence cites one reference [1].
This sentence cites two references [1, 2].
This sentence cites four references [1–4].
