Papers (Proceedings)
The Scientific Committee of EM2025 invites authors to register on the conference website and submit a 4-page paper in DOCX or LaTeX format via the "Paper" section of their user profile (accessible after logging in). The submission deadline is February 10, 2025. Contributions should follow the provided author guidelines.
To assist authors, instruction files preformatted according to the guidelines are available:
If you are unable to submit your contribution through the conference website due to file size limitations, please contact the organizing committee to arrange an alternative file transfer method.
Authors intending to present multiple papers at the conference should contact the organizers at em2025@engmech.cz.
By submitting their papers, authors acknowledge and agree to adhere to the publication ethics of the conference.
To improve the chances of indexing the proceedings in Clarivate (Web of Science, CPCI index), compliance with specific formal requirements for references is necessary, even if they may not always appear logical:
- The number of citations should align with the limited extent of the paper.
- Clarivate discourages excessive self-citations or citing only the author’s team, even if such references are contentually justified.
- Avoid citing works where the connection to the topic is not immediately apparent. While Clarivate editors claim subject-matter expertise, their evaluations are often no better than other bureaucratic review panels.
Unfortunately, Clarivate's official guidelines are vague, frequently updated, and their location on the Clarivate website changes. A few links to primary sources are provided below (valid as of November 28, 2024): CPCI evaluation process and selection criteria, version July 2024, WebArchive.
Presentations
Each paper presentation will be allocated 20 minutes, including time for discussion and transitions between speakers. Every lecture room will be equipped with a standard setup of a computer and data projector. If you require any additional or non-standard equipment, please kindly contact the Conference Secretariat.
The allotted space for a poster will be approximately 0.95 × 1.15 m (width × height). Only a limited number of posters is available.
