Instructions to Authors

 

Submission of Papers
Authors are requested to submit their original manuscript electronically to BAE@researchtoolbox.com. Should authors not have access to an e-mail facility, they should send their articles to Professor E.H. Mathews, Potchefstroom University, PO Box 2156, Faerie Glen 4, South Africa 0043. Please note that the article should be accompanied by either a CD or diskette containing the electronic version of that article. Wherever possible authors should correspond electronically.

The language of the journal is English. All papers will be reviewed and assessed by a series of independent referees.

Submission of a paper implies that it has not been published previously, that it is not under consideration for publication elsewhere, and that if accepted it will not be published elsewhere in the same form, in English or in any other language, without the written consent of the publisher.

Types of Contributions
Original papers; technical notes; letters to the Editor.

Manuscript Preparation
General: Manuscripts must be typewritten, double-spaced with wide margins on one side of white paper. Good quality printouts with a font size of 12 or 10 pt are required. The corresponding author should be identified (include a Fax number and E-mail address). Full postal addresses must be given for all co-authors. All pages should be numbered consecutively. Authors should consult a recent issue of the journal for style if possible. An electronic copy of the paper should accompany the final version. The Editors reserve the right to adjust style to certain standards of uniformity. Authors should retain a copy of their manuscript since we cannot accept responsibility for damage or loss of papers. Original manuscripts are discarded one month after publication unless the Publisher is asked to return original material after use.

Abstracts: Abstracts not exceeding 100 words in length.

Text: Follow this order when typing manuscripts: Title, Authors, Affiliations, Abstract, Keywords, Main text, Acknowledgements, Appendix, References, Vitae, Figure Captions and then Tables. Do not import the Figures or Tables into your text. The corresponding author should be identified with an asterisk and footnote. All other footnotes (except for table footnotes) should be identified with superscript Arabic numbers.

Units: Because of the international character of the journal, no rigid rules concerning notation or abbreviation need be observed by authors, but each paper should be self-consistent as to symbols and units which should all be properly defined.

Mathematical Expressions: Mathematical symbols and formulae should be typed. Particular care should be exercised in identifying all symbols and in avoiding ambiguities. Distinction should be made between the number one (1) and letter l, and between the number zero (0) and the letter O. Equation numbers should appear in parentheses and be numbered consecutively. All equation numbers must appear on the right-hand side of the equation should be referred to within the text. Use the following sequence of parentheses: ) ] }.

References: All publications cited in the text should be presented in a list of references following the text of the manuscript. In the text refer to references by a number in square brackets on the line (e.g. Since Kassem et al. [1]), and the full reference should be given in a numerical list at the end of the paper.

References should be given in the following form:
1. Kassem M.A., Kaseb S., El-Refaie M.F. Solar heat gain through vertical cylindrical glass. Building and Environment 1999;34(3):253-262.
2. Radford A.D., Gero J.S. Trade off diagrams for the integrated design of the physical environment in buildings. In: Cowan H.J. editor. Solar energy applications in the design of buildings. Applied Science Publishers Ltd, 1980. p. 197-223.
3. Ashby M.F. Materials selection in mechanical design. Oxford: Pergamon Press, 1992.

Illustrations: All illustrations should be provided in camera-ready form, suitable for reproduction (which may include reduction) without retouching. Photographs, charts and diagrams are all to be referred to as "Figure(s)" and should be numbered consecutively in the order to which they are referred. They should accompany the manuscript, but should not be included within the text. All illustrations should be clearly marked on the back with the figure number and the author's name. All figures are to have a caption. Captions should be supplied on a separate sheet.
Line drawings: Good quality printouts on white paper produced in black ink are required. All lettering, graph lines and points on graphs should be sufficiently large and bold to permit reproduction when the diagram has been reduced to a size suitable for inclusion in the journal. Dye-line prints or photocopies are not suitable for reproduction. Do not use any type of shading on computer-generated illustrations.
Photographs: Original photographs must be supplied as they are to be reproduced (e.g. black and white or colour). If necessary, a scale should be marked on the photograph. Please note that photocopies of photographs are not acceptable.
Colour: Colour illustrations will be published free of charge provided separations and electronic files of sufficient quality are supplied. For authors who are unable to supply colour separations charges will be made at the current colour printing costs.

Tables: Tables should be numbered consecutively and given a suitable caption and each table typed on a separate sheet. Footnotes to tables should be typed below the table and should be referred to by superscript lowercase letters. No vertical rules should be used. Tables should not duplicate results presented elsewhere in the manuscript, (e.g. in graphs).

Submission on Disk after Acceptance for Publication
Elsevier Science now publishes all manuscripts using electronic production methods and strongly encourages submission on disk. Please send the disk files of your article along with the hardcopy of the accepted version. To ensure fast and easy processing of your submission, please adhere to the following guidelines:
1. Save text and graphics on separate disks.
2. Label all disks with your name, a short version of the article title, the journal to be published in, and the filenames. Please also include details of the software and platform (PC, Mac, UNIX, etc) used to create your files.
3. Ensure that the files on the disk match exactly the hardcopy. In cases of a discrepancy, the hardcopy version will be uses as the definitive version.

Proofs
Proofs will be sent to the author (first named author if no corresponding author is identified of multi-authored papers) and should be returned within 48 hours of receipt. Corrections should be restricted to typesetting errors; any others may be charged to the author. Any queries should be answered in full. Please note that authors are urged to check their proofs carefully before return, since the inclusion of late corrections cannot be guaranteed. Proofs are to be returned to the Log-in Department, Elsevier Science, Stover Court, Bampfylde Street, Exeter, Devon, EX1 2AH, UK.

Offprints
Twenty five offprints and one free copy of the journal will be supplied free of charge. In cases where colour is paid for, authors will receive an additional one hundred free offprints. Additional offprints and copies of the issue can be ordered at a specially reduced rate using the order form sent to the corresponding author after the manuscript has been accepted. Orders for reprints (produced after publication of an article) will incur a 50% surcharge.
