3 Abstract: This document is a template for use by authors sending manuscripts to the Turkish Journal of Electrical
4 Engineering & Computer Sciences. It also contains important information on the paper style. The title of the manuscript
5 must be written in lower case except for the first word and proper nouns. Author names must be given in full, with
6 surnames (family names) all in capitals. Author addresses must be given in English in the following order: Department,
7 Faculty, University, City, Country, with numbers in superscript after each author name to indicate his/her address.
8 Footnotes must not be used for addresses. The corresponding author’s email address must be clearly given, marked with
9 an asterisk. The abstract must not be longer than 300 words and must clearly state the study’s purpose and results. The
10 manuscript’s title and abstract must not contain mathematical formulae. The abstract must not contain any reference
11 citations. The key words must be separated by commas and should not include acronyms.

12 Key words: Electronics, instructions for authors, manuscript template

13 1. Introduction
14 Authors should use this template very carefully when preparing a manuscript for submission to the Turkish
15 Journal of Electrical Engineering & Computer Sciences. The manuscript should be written in LATEX. Starting
16 in January 2018, other formats are not accepted. The text in this template can be replaced by typing
17 or copy/pasting to form the final form of the manuscript. The style of this document should never be changed.
18 Please make sure that, in addition to this template, you carefully read and follow the “Instructions for Authors”
19 in the journal web site. Submissions that do not strictly follow this template and/or all instructions for authors
20 are returned back to authors without review.

21 1.1. Sections and subsections

22 Articles should be divided into sections and subsections. Principal sections should be numbered consecutively
23 (e.g., as 1. Introduction, 2. Materials and methods, etc.), while subsections should be numbered as 1.1., 1.2.,
24 etc. Do not use numbers for the Acknowledgments and References sections. The total number of pages for
25 the abstract, all sections (e.g., Introduction, Materials and methods, Results, Discussion, etc.),
26 references, tables, and figures should not exceed 15. For this journal, one of the most common
27 return reason during initial submissions is exceeding the number of pages. The number of pages
28 is strictly limited; because, this journal is free of charge (for both authors and readers).

1 The Introduction should argue the case for the study, outlining only essential background, and should not
2 include details of findings or conclusions. It should not be only a review of the subject area, but it should also
3 contain a clear statement of the question being addressed. In the Materials and methods section, please provide
4 concise but complete information on materials and analytical/statistical procedures used. This part should be
5 as clear as possible to enable other scientists to repeat the research presented. For example, brand names and
6 company locations should be supplied for all mentioned equipment, instruments, chemicals, etc. Results of the
7 study should be given in the Results section. In the Discussion section, where findings are discussed, statements
8 from the Introduction and Results sections should not be repeated unnecessarily. It is advised that the final
9 paragraph of the Discussion section highlights the main conclusions of the study. The Results and Discussion
10 sections may be combined. Where necessary, you can refer to sections like Section 1.

11 Manuscripts must be written in English. Contributors who are not native English speakers are strongly
12 advised to ensure that a colleague fluent in the English language or a professional language editor has reviewed
13 their manuscript. Concise English without jargon should be used. Repetitive use of long sentences and passive
14 voices should be avoided. It is strongly recommended that the text be run through computer spelling and
15 grammar programs. Either British or American spelling is acceptable but it must be consistent throughout.
16 Manuscripts written in poor English will not be submitted to referees for evaluation and will be returned back
17 to authors.
18 We emphasize that the style of this document, including line spacing, margins, fonts, and
19 page numbers, should never be changed.

20 1.2. Symbols, units, and abbreviations

21 In general, this journal follows the conventions of Scientific Style and Format, The CSE Manual for Authors,
22 Editors, and Publishers, Council of Science Editors, Reston, VA, USA. All symbols, such as ×, µ, η , and ν ,
23 should be written by using corresponding LATEXdefinitions. For example, the degree symbol should be used as
◦
24 and it should not be written by using superscripted letter o or number 0. Similarly, the multiplication symbol
25 must be used as ×, not the letter x. Spaces must be inserted between numbers and units (e.g., 3 kg, 2 m,
26 10 V) and between numbers and mathematical symbols (e.g., + , −, ×, = , <, >), but not between numbers

2
 AUTHOR and AUTHOR/Turk J Elec Eng & Comp Sci

1 and percent symbols (e.g., 45% is the correct version). Please use SI units. All abbreviations and acronyms
2 should be defined at the first mention. Latin terms such as et al., in vitro, and in situ, should not be italicized.

3 1.3. Reference citations

4 References should be cited in the text by numbers in square brackets. Please do not use individual sets of
5 square brackets for citation numbers that appear together, e.g., use [1, 4] or [1–3, 5], not [1],[2],[3], or [4]–[6].
6 All references cited in the manuscript must appear in the list of references at the end, while all references listed
7 in the reference list must be cited in the manuscript.

8 2. Environments
9 Different environments can be used in the manuscript. Some examples (theorem, proof, example) are as follows.

10 Theorem 1 The following simplifying assumptions were made to derive the dynamic model of the PMSM in
11 the rotor reference frame.

12 Proof The following simplifying assumptions were made to derive the dynamic model of the PMSM in the
13 rotor reference frame. 2

14 Example 1 The following simplifying assumptions were made to derive the dynamic model of the PMSM in
15 the rotor reference frame.

16 The format of an equation should be like

x + y = 1. (1)

17 Then, it can be referred in the text as (1). If it is short, an equation can be written in line as x + y = 1 .

18 2.1. Tables and figures

19 All illustrations (photographs, drawings, graphs, etc.), not including tables, must be labelled “Figure”. Figures
20 must be submitted both in the manuscript and as separate files (see below for the accepted format). Each
21 figure or table must have a caption or a legend with a number (e.g., Table 1, Figure 1), unless there is only
22 one table or figure, in which case it should be labelled “Table” or “Figure” without numbering. Captions must
23 be written in sentence case (e.g., “Macroscopic appearance of the samples.”). The font used inside the figures
24 should be Times New Roman. If symbols such as ×, µ, η , or ν are used, they should be added as symbol.
25 All figures and tables must be numbered consecutively as they are referred to in the text. Please refer to
26 tables and figures with capitalization and as unabbreviated (e.g., “As shown in Figure 2...”, and not “Fig. 2” or

3

1 “figure 2”). The figures and tables themselves may be given at the end of the text or at appropriate places in the
2 text. The resolution of images should not be less than 118 pixels/cm when width is set to 16 cm.
3 Images must be scanned at 1200 dpi resolution. Scanned or photocopied graphs and diagrams are not
4 accepted. Charts must be prepared in two dimensions unless required by the data used. Charts unnecessarily
5 prepared in three dimensions are not accepted.
6 Figures that are charts, diagrams, or drawings must be submitted in a modifiable format,
7 i.e., our graphics personnel should be able to modify them. All figures must be only in *.pdf
8 format; other formats (e.g., *.eps, *.jpeg, *.png, *.tiff ) are NOT accepted. Tables and figures,
9 including caption, title, column heads, and footnotes, must not exceed 16× 20 cm and should be
10 no smaller than 8 cm in width.
11 The same data or information given in a table must not be repeated in a figure and vice versa. It is not
12 acceptable to repeat extensively the numbers from tables in the text or to give lengthy explanations of tables
13 or figures.

14 3. Information about references

15 Do not include personal communications, unpublished data, websites, or other unpublished materials as ref-
16 erences, although such material may be inserted (in parentheses) in the text. If the author of a reference is
17 an organization or corporation, use its name in the reference list (using an abbreviation in the citation, if ap-
18 propriate); do not use “Anonymous”. In case of publications in languages other than English, the published
19 English title should be provided if one exists, with an annotation such as “(article in Turkish with an abstract
20 in English)”. If the publication was not published with an English title, provide the original title only; do not
21 provide a self-translation.
22 All authors should be included in reference lists unless there are 10 or more, in which case only the first
23 10 should be given, followed by “et al.”. The manuscript should be checked carefully to ensure that the spellings
24 of the authors’ names and the years are exactly the same in the text as given in the reference list. References
25 should be formatted as shown at the end of this document. Journal titles should be abbreviated according to
26 Thomson Reuters Web of Science c abbreviations.

27 Acknowledgment
28 Acknowledgment and/or disclaimers should appear before References. Names of funding organizations should
29 be written in full. The authors are advised to describe author contributions, e.g., as follows: S.A.
30 gave the idea, F.A. did the experiments, F.A. and S.A. interpreted the results, S.A. wrote the
31 paper.
