Instructions to authors for the abstract (this is the title of the abstract)
First Author1 , Second Author2 , and Third Author1
(1) Affiliation 1, Postal address 1, e-mail addresses
(2) Affiliation 2, Postal address 2, e-mail address
Keywords: abstract, instructions, IUTAM2014EST
Subtitle(s) can be used if required for further segmentation
The Symposium Book of Abstracts will be published. Authors should submit the Abstract electronically
using the following e-mail address: [email protected] in the pdf format. For deadlines, see the conference web-pages at http://www.ioc.ee/iutam2014/. The Abstract should be written following the format
described in this file which is available from the conference website. The speaker and the contact author
should match and it is advisable to highlight the speaker in the list of authors in bold. The Abstract
should be written in English within a printing area of 16 cm x 24.7 cm (25 mm margins on A4 paper).
Font size is 11. The Abstract including figures, tables and references should have a minimum length of
0.5 pages and should not exceed 2 pages.
Mathematical formulas should be centred and the equation numbers placed in the right hand side as
p
f (σij , K α ) = 3J2 − σy0 − K = 0,
(1)
where J2 is the second invariant of the deviatoric stress tensor.
Matrices and vectors should be written in bold, or alternatively vectors can be denoted by an arrow above
the symbol as in the following equation
x + = c + Qx ,
or ~x+ = ~c + Q~x.
(2)
Slanted bold symbols are produced with command \boldsymbol{A} or \bo{A}, which results in
A. For upright bold symbols use command \mathbf{A} or \bu{A}, which results in A.
Also bold Greek symbols are defined in the header using commands like \balpha,\bbeta etc., see
Table 1.
For the divergence-, gradient-, deviator- and trace-operators and the differential, the following command
are defined: \diver, \Div, \grad, \Grad, \tr, \dd{.}, the use of them is illustrated in the
following equations
dv
,
dt
− Div(S · F T ) = ρ0 b 0 − ρ0 ẍ ,
−divσ = ρb − ρ
L = grad v ,

F = Grad χ,

σ = dev σ + tr(σ)I .

In addition the jump-brackets and the energy norm, \jump{u} and \enorm{u} , are defined producing [ u]] and |||u|||, respectively.
In producing Tables clarity should be emphasised. The following simple rules should be respected: (a)
Do not use vertical lines, (b) Do not use double lines, (c) Write the units in the headings of each column,
not inside the tabulated material, (d) Write always something before the decimal dot, (e) Do not use any
kind of “see above”-like phrases.
The Figures should be clear, readable and uniquely defined. In the online version of the Book of Abstracts
colour pictures are possible, but the authors should take into account that the Figures should be readable
also in the print version. For an example, see Fig. 1.

References to cited literature should be identified by numbers either grouped in order of appearance or
using the Harvard style. The citations to papers should be punctuated like [1], to parts of collections –
like [2] and to books – like [3].
