Nomenclature and Units
Please take care that all terminology and notation used will be widely understood. Abbreviations and acronyms should be spelled out in full at their first occurrence in the text.
SI units are strongly recommended. If non-SI units must be used, SI equivalents (or conversion factors) must also be given. Please use the spellings 'litre' and 'metre' (a 'meter' is a measuring instrument).
Please use a decimal point rather than a comma in numbers (i.e. 3.142 not 3,142).
Write equations in dimensionless form or in metric units. Please use italic letters to denote variables (in text or in displayed equations).
Artwork
All figures should be embedded correctly positioned within your Word files, and should also be supplied as separate graphics files in their original formats. EPS, TIFF or PSD formats are preferred. Use a minimum of 300 dpi.
Figures should appear in numerical order, be described in the body of the text and be positioned close to where they are first cited. Each figure should have a caption which describes the illustration, and that can be understood independently of the main text. The caption should be given in the text, and not on the figure itself.
Because figures may be resized in the course of production please use scale bars and not magnification factors.
Tables
Please submit tables as editable text and not as images. Number tables consecutively in accordance with their appearance in the text and place any table notes below the table body. Be sparing in the use of tables and ensure that the data presented in them do not duplicate results described elsewhere in the article. Please avoid using vertical lines.
Make sure all figures and tables will fit inside the text area.
The authors must refer to Jurnal Teknik Industri Journal for writing format and style (Template). This will ensure fast processing and publication. Any papers not fulfilling the requirements based on the guideline to authors will not be processed.
10. Cover article
The authors must create a cover article. The cover article is a picture that describes the article content. The minimum resolution of images is 220 dpi. File type image is png or jpg. The cover article is uploaded in article metadata.
