Style sheet and authors' guide
Important and basic points
- The number of articles reviewed by each author can be a maximum of two articles.
- The responsible author must be a member of the faculty.
- Articles must be submitted according to the publication format in the order that follows, without the names and details of the authors, containing all the figures and tables in a file as the main file of the article and be between 15 to 25 pages.
- Articles should be submitted in A4 size with the specified margins, and please refrain from submitting articles in separate letter size. See Page Layout in Word for more information.
- It is necessary to put the following files:
- The submitted articles must be in line with the objectives of the Journal of Transportation Engineering and the topics developed and have originality and innovation and the result of a research work.
- The accepted articles of this quarterly are research or scientific-research articles and review, collection and translation articles cannot be published in the Transportation Engineering Quarterly.
- Articles that have already been published in other journals (domestic and foreign) or that another journal is in the process of being reviewed or reviewed, or articles that have been announced to be accepted by another journal but have not yet been published, should not be published in the quarterly. Transport engineering should be submitted and if the journal receives such articles, the order will not affect them and will refuse to judge them.
- Papers accepted in scientific conferences (domestic and foreign) can not be submitted to the Journal of Transportation Engineering and the journal will stop the judging process at any stage, whether receiving or judging, if aware of this.
- In addition to complying with the criteria of the Journal of Transportation Engineering, the article must have a smooth and uniform prose. Articles that have weak and inadequate prose and have numerous editing errors will not be considered. Our method is to use Persian words instead of foreign words, provided that the use of alternatives does not damage the scientific meaning of the text.
Please install the required fonts first before starting work.
Very very important: Articles outside the following format and instructions will be rejected.

Maximum number of article pages
The maximum number of pages of the article (including all sections of the article, English and Persian abstracts, sources, etc.) that are compiled and prepared in accordance with this guide, should not be more than 15 pages in the same format.
Foreign words in Persian text
For foreign words and letters, use the term and Persian equivalents as much as possible. In the case of necessary and uncommon foreign letters or non-term Persian equivalents, only in the first reference and immediately after the expression of such words, indicate its Latin equivalent in footnotes at the end of the article.
Footnotes
If you need to insert footnotes, Persian footnotes should be arranged correctly in B Lotus font and size pt. 11 and left-handed Latin footnotes in Times New Roman font size pt. 11 should be written at the end of the article before the list of sources. After the text, type a dot, then a space and then the Persian or English equivalent. Avoid inserting unnecessary posts.
Figures, charts and tables
Tables and figures (diagrams, charts, maps, etc.) should have numbers and descriptions. Table superscripts should be bold in the middle with a B Lotus Bold font and pt size. 10 typed and numbered in order of 1. Shape subtitles should be numbered in the middle of China with Lotus 10Bold B font in order of number 1.
Notes in the use of bugs
Graphs can be in color or black and white; But they should be in such a way that in the case of monochrome printing, their colors and details can be recognized. Graphs and figures should be inserted into the text and where it is referred to immediately. Provided, of course, that the columns on a page are not broken. The unit expression of the committees in the diagrams and figures is mandatory. The text of the article should refer to all figures and tables. When preparing diagrams and shapes, make sure that the size of the numbers, words, quantities, and curve legends are large enough to be perfectly clear and legible after insertion into the article. Note that if the diagram or figure in the article is in the form of an image (software output), it must be in full resolution. It is better to put the main file of diagrams and shapes in the text of the article. Examples of diagrams are given below (note that the diagrams themselves should also be in the center position relative to the two sides of the paper).
Another very, very important point is that if tables, graphs and figures are given as single columns in the text (due to their size and width), they must be at the top or bottom of the page. In other words, in no way should a table or text form be placed between two texts that are written in a friendly way.
Notable cases in the use of tables
Each table should have a number and title (description) in the middle of the table with the B Lotus Bold font and size pt. 10 are typed and numbered in order of 1. The tables should be inserted in the text immediately after the reference. The titles of the columns of the tables should be in the middle (B Lotus 10 Bold) and all the texts in the table should be in the right or middle if Persian, depending on the amount of text in the table (B Lotus pt. 10) and if they are Latin in the left (Times New Roman 8). ) To be typed. All numbers in the tables must be typed in Persian and in the middle. The unit statement of the committees in the table is mandatory. Each table should be spaced before and after the text with a blank line.
For example, Table 1 has been prepared according to the above guide. In this table, the type and size of font required for compiling Persian articles are summarized (note that the table itself should be in the middle position relative to the two sides of the paper).
Inside the tables, Persian numbers and titles should be used, and if a comma is used, type the numbers to the right of the comma and write the rest of the numbers. Avoid using a dot instead of a dot.
Mathematical formulas and relations
To show mathematical relations and formulas, use a two-column table with invisible lines according to the following example. In the right column of this table, write the relation number and in the left column, the relation or formula (use Microsoft Equation to write formulas is required).
If the formulas are prepared in word version 2013, the submitted file must be saved with the extension * .docx to prevent the formulas from being converted to an image. All mathematical relations are numbered in order of 1 and the number of each relation is separated by parentheses. Relationships must be written in font size 10. Two examples of formulas are given below.
If the mathematical relations are given as single columns in the text, you should arrange them so that they are given as figures and diagrams at the beginning or bottom of the page.
Conclusions and suggestions
The summary and conclusion section after the main text of the article is mandatory. If you have any future suggestions from the research, you can put them at the end of the conclusion.
Gratitude
If the article was prepared in collaboration with specific individuals or organizations, it is necessary to appreciate them in this section.

When using parentheses, use space before the parentheses are opened and after the parentheses are closed.
Do not put a semicolon after the publication date in parentheses.
Use a semicolon to write compound words or some similar verbs and words (e.g. humans, goes, decision, measure, beneficiary, region, same, etc.) [e.g. I want (wrong) I want (right)] to create In Word software you can use (ctrl & shift & 2) or (shift & space) or (ctrl & -) (depending on the type of Windows one of the items works).
