Mechanics" journal accepts reviews and original papers written in English or in
Russian. Please, attach the signed "Copyright Transfer Agreement Form" (see copyright_agreement_form.doc in the document
list) at paper submission. Russian authors also should attach the "Expertiza
Akt" certified by the institute (company) seal.

We are recommending to the
authors to print the final pdf file using some laser white-and-black printer in
order to evaluate the publishing quality of the figures. Please note that the
quality obtained will be some better than that at "camera-ready" printing. To
obtain proper quality use file images with 300 dpi resolution (or higher); try
to use Times New Roman or Arial fonts for the texts inside the figures.

4. Equations
Equations should be typed at
separate lines and subsequently numbered by Arabic numerals in round brackets;
the proper punctuation marks should be used after the equation with respect to
the equation position in the text.
Į2+1/2c3=exp[(ΔΘ-E)/RT]. (1)
Please note that Times New
Roman font includes Greek letters and a lot of special symbols (ε≠ỹ≡ồ ≥h→∞); they are
usually correctly converted into pdf format, while the use of equation editors
does not guarantee proper result.

the author will be able to create the proper Word rtf file and, using the
Word-to-pdf converter, the pdf file. This pdf file will be the "camera-ready"
version of the paper and it will be "as is" published in "Materials Physics and
Mechanics" journal. Please note that the editorial office will not introduce
any corrections or additions in this file; for this reason we are recommending
to print it using laser white-and-black printer and to check the identity of the
final pdf version to the initial Word text.
