Introduction

The introduction should provide a clear context for your study, including background information, research objectives, and the significance of the work. Begin with a compelling explanation of the problem, supported by relevant literature, and then transition into the study's purpose and objectives.

Authors must adhere to the template's formatting guidelines, using the predefined Heading Styles for section titles and ensuring body text is formatted using the Body Text Style. Tables and images should follow the respective styles, with proper captions and alignment. Maintaining consistency enhances the manuscript's professionalism and simplifies its evaluation process.

Sub-heading style

Next level heading

Authors are required to use the predefined Heading Styles provided in the template to ensure consistency throughout the manuscript. For primary headings, apply Heading 1, and for subheadings, use Heading 2 and Heading 3 as appropriate. Each heading style is configured with specific font, size, and spacing settings to align with the journal's formatting requirements. Avoid manual adjustments to font size, style, or paragraph spacing. Instead, rely on the styles pane to format all headings consistently. This approach ensures a professional appearance and simplifies the review and typesetting process. For assistance, refer to the template guidelines.

Background / Experimental Setup

The background section should provide a clear and concise context for your study. Begin with a comprehensive overview of the problem or research area, emphasizing its significance and relevance. Include a critical review of existing literature, highlighting gaps your study aims to address. Incorporate only relevant and recent references to establish a strong foundation for your work. Ensure a logical flow of ideas, transitioning seamlessly into the objectives of your study. Use the provided template styles for headings and body text to maintain consistency. This section sets the stage for your research and must be precise, engaging, and informative.

Provide citations of references in the order they appear in the text.

•	Use square brackets for numbering, e.g., [1], [2], [3].

•	If citing multiple references together, list them as [1, 2, 3] or use a range, e.g., [1-3].

Methodology

The methodology section should provide a detailed and structured account of the methods used in your study, ensuring reproducibility and clarity. Begin with an overview of the experimental or research design, specifying any theoretical framework, tools, or equipment used. Use the Heading 2 style for major subsections and Heading 3 for sub-parts, following the formatting instructions.

Fig. 1. Figure Name. (Left Aligned)

When including figures, label them as Fig. 1, Fig. 2, and so on, and align the caption to the left, below the figure. Ensure figures are clear, properly formatted, and in high resolution (color or black-and-white). All figures must be cited within the text, e.g., “As shown in Fig. 1, the results demonstrate...” Avoid leaving figures without a proper explanation in the text.

For tables, place captions at the top, left-aligned, and number them sequentially as 1, 2, 3, etc. Use simple and readable formatting for table data. Explain the table's content thoroughly within the text, highlighting the key data points or trends it presents. For example, “Table 1 summarizes the demographic characteristics of the participants, showing a balanced representation of age groups.”

Table 1. Sample data (in %).

Age	A	B	C
20 - 40	23	24	25
40 - 60	19	18	17
60 - 80	14	10	12

Maintain uniform formatting throughout the section using Body Text Style, in Garamond, size 12, with 1.15 line spacing. This ensures readability and adherence to the journal's standards, enhancing the overall presentation of your methodology.

For wider tables or figures that cannot fit within the double-column layout, use a single-column format positioned at the start of the page or the subsequent page where they are cited. Such tables or figures should be inserted either at the beginning of the current page or the next page, close to where they are first cited in the text. Ensure that the figure or table is appropriately labelled, with captions following the journal’s guidelines (e.g., Fig. 1 or Table 1) and aligned to the left.

After including the wider table or figure, the remaining content of the page should revert to the standard double-column format to maintain consistency. Avoid placing large figures or tables in the middle of a page, as this disrupts the flow of the document. Instead, aim for seamless integration with the text, ensuring that the narrative smoothly transitions around the visual elements.

Authors must format equations professionally using the equation editor or appropriate tools. Each equation should be numbered sequentially in parentheses, e.g., Eq. (1), aligned to the right margin. Use font size 12.5. Ensure the equation is clear, concise, and uses standard mathematical symbols and notation.

E = mc2	(1)

In the text, it can be cited as: "The relationship between energy, mass, and the speed of light is given by Eq. (1)." When referring to equations in the text, cite them immediately after their introduction, e.g., “The relationship is defined by Eq. (2).” Avoid separating the citation from the equation in the text to maintain clarity and coherence. Ensure equations are discussed and integrated effectively within the narrative for better understanding.

By adhering to these approaches, the presentation of your manuscript will remain professional, and the tables and figures will be easily interpretable by readers and reviewers.

Results and Discussion

The Results and Discussion section should present findings clearly and concisely while providing interpretations and implications in light of the research objectives. Begin with a detailed account of your results, supported by relevant figures, tables, or graphs. Use predefined styles for all headings and body text to ensure consistency.

Tables and figures must be placed near the text where they are first cited, with wider ones formatted in single-column layout if needed. Label tables sequentially (Table 1, Table 2, etc.) with captions at the top, aligned to the left, and explain the table data comprehensively in the text. Figures should be numbered (e.g., Fig. 1, Fig. 2), with captions aligned to the left below each figure. All figures must be clear, properly formatted, and cited within the text (e.g., “As shown in Fig. 1…”).

When discussing results, avoid restating data from tables or figures but rather interpret their significance. Highlight patterns, relationships, and insights, and compare them with findings from existing literature to establish relevance. Use appropriate subheadings for clarity and logical organization. Ensure accurate data reporting while avoiding overinterpretation or unsupported claims.

Ensure the entire section follows the journal's formatting guidelines, using Body Text Style with Garamond, size 12, and 1.15 line spacing. This section should provide a thorough and compelling analysis of your study's findings.

Conclusions

The conclusion should provide a concise summary of your study, focusing on the key findings and their implications. Begin with a brief restatement of the study’s objectives and methodology. Clearly outline the major conclusions derived from your work in a point-by-point format for clarity and emphasis.

For example:

Highlight the primary finding or achievement.

Summarize any observed trends or relationships.

Discuss the relevance or significance of the results.

Identify any limitations or areas for improvement.

Suggest potential applications or future research directions.

This approach ensures your conclusions are clear, structured, and impactful.

Acknowledgement

The Acknowledgment section provides an opportunity to express gratitude to contributors, such as advisors, colleagues, or funding institutions.
