Materials and Methods: In this section, papers involving experiments should present methods, experimental design and procedures. Reference to standard procedures should be presented rather than the standard procedure. This section should contain machine or equipment description, and statistical analysis if available. For theoretical analysis, the theory of the work should be presented.

Results and Discussion: Here, the results achieved should be presented in descriptive, graphical or tabular form. The ways data and these results illustrated in any of these forms describe problem areas or proffer solutions should also be discussed.

Conclusion: The summary of the solutions should be given here. The nature of the study, major results whether conclusive and recommendations for further studies should as well be briefly stated.

Notation: A list of the abbreviations and symbols used should be presented despite explaining them wherever used.

Equations: Any formula or equation used must be presented in equation editor style and numbered.

References: Only the name-date style in the text will be accepted. All cited references should be listed in alphabetical order with same authors of two or more papers published in the same year distinguished by appending alphabets to the year.

Tables and Figures: They should be numbered by Arabic numerals and their titles, typed in lower case. They should all be placed at their appropriate locations and not all at the back of the paper. Arrangements should be in order of reference.
