The journal publishes research articles, review articles, commentaries, editorials, technical articles, and short communications with a Quarterly frequency (04 issues per year).
Requirements for publication

  • The article must be written by the correct Template.
  • Researchers should make sure that the work they send in is original, has not been released anywhere else, and hasn’t been copied from other sources.

If references are excluded, the percentage should be below 5%. If the work reports on research that is not in accordance with ethical standards.
  • The length of the abstract should range from 200 to 1000 characters. Please refrain from using too many abbreviations and avoid referencing any sources in the abstract.​
  • Five keywords that describe the main idea of the article are needed.
  • Please use the reference style that is shown in the template. If the references are not in the right style, they may need to be rewritten and checked frequently.

  • The Reference List cites every reference that is referenced in the text, and vice versa.
  • Significant quality is required for figures and tables.
  • The use of copyrighted content from other sources has been approved (such as the Internet).

Article types

  • Research paper: papers (4000–8000 words) reporting unique research with a have the objective, questions, methods, results, discussions, and conclusions.
  • Review paper: reviews that are in-depth (4000–8000 words) and build upon thorough citations to the material that has already been published. These articles aim to provide pertinent ideas, theoretical propositions, frameworks, and constraints related to the subject matter.
  • Technical paper: Technical papers are original stories on specialised technical work that are meant to be read by professionals. There are not any rules about how long a piece can be, but it should be long enough to clearly explain the work that was done, but not so long that it makes it harder to understand.
  • Short communications: Short papers (1000–2500 words) that feature original study. The papers should be important to the study group in the journal and not just basic reports or small amounts of data.
