this process can +take several weeks. + +If you plan to attend an AIAA technical conference or professional +development course held in the United States and you require a visa for +travel, it is incumbent upon you to apply for a visa with the +U.S. embassy (consular division) or consulate with ample time for +processing. +To avoid bureaucratic problems, AIAA strongly suggests that you submit +your formal application to U.S. authorities a minimum of 120 days in +advance of the date of anticipated travel. + +Prospective conference and course attendees requiring a visa to travel +to the United States should first contact AIAA to request an official +letter of invitation. +This letter and a copy of the conference call for papers should be presented +along with the required documentation to the U.S. consular officials as part of +the formal application process. +AIAA cannot directly intervene with the U.S. Department of State, +consular offices, or embassies on behalf of individuals applying for visas. +A letter of invitation can be requested at +\href{http://www.aiaa.org/visa-info/}{www.aiaa.org/visa-info/} or you +may contact AIAA Customer Service at +\href{mailto:custserv@aiaa.org?subject=visa}{custserv@aiaa.org} for more +information. + +\subsection{Tracking Number vs Paper Number} + +Your paper was assigned a tracking number at the time you submitted +your abstract. +That number plus the corresponding author's last name is used to access +the AIAA Author Status Page. +This number is also useful when contacting AIAA technical support +regarding submission difficulties. +The tracking number is not the final AIAA paper number. +Once the abstract is accepted and assigned to the program, an AIAA +paper number is created. +The paper number, which appears in the format +{\footnotesize\textsf{AIAA-YEAR-NNNN}}, will be used to refer to your +paper in the program and in any publication format. +Do not include a paper number anywhere on your paper, as this number +will be stamped automatically in the top right corner of your paper at +the time of processing. + +\subsection{Copyright} + +Before AIAA can print or publish any paper, the copyright information +must be completed on the AIAA Web site. +Failure to complete the form correctly could result in your paper not +being published. +The following fields must be completed: +\begin{enumerate} + \item Clearance Statement + \item Non-Infringement Statement + \item Publication Status Statement + \item Copyright Assignment Statement +\end{enumerate} +For the Copyright Assignment Statement, select either A, B, C, or~D. +Be sure to read the copyright statements carefully. +If you are not sure which copyright statement to use, contact your legal +department; AIAA cannot help you determine which statement to use. +A hardcopy of the form is found in the Author Kit for your reference. +As you will be completing this form online, you do not need to fill out +the hard-copy form. Please do not upload the copyright form with your +paper, and do not include a copyright statement anywhere on your +paper. The correct statement will be stamped automatically at the time +of processing. + +\subsection{Submission Deadlines} + +\subsubsection{Meetings with Electronic Proceedings} + +Manuscripts will be accepted for upload to the system from the receipt +of the acceptance letter to the beginning of the conference. You will be +notified of the specific manuscript submission deadline in your +acceptance letter, and the deadline will also be listed on the Author +Status Page for your paper. We ask that authors not upload a draft version +of their manuscript with the intent to upload a final version later. +\emph{PLEASE upload only the final version of your manuscript.} + +On-line conference proceedings will be made accessible to attendees +who have registered for the "full conference" option two weeks prior to +the conference. Please keep that date in mind when preparing and +uploading the final manuscript. + +To ensure conference quality, session chairs will enforce a "no paper, +no podium" rule. This policy states that if your manuscript is not +uploaded to the Web site prior to your presentation, you will not be +allowed to present the paper at the conference. There are times when the +organizers at the conference request an earlier deadline than the beginning +of the conference. If such a situation arises, you will be notified in your +Author Acceptance Letter. + +\subsubsection{Loose Papers Meetings} + +The manuscript submission deadline for loose papers meetings is generally +six to eight weeks in advance of the event; you will be notified of the specific +deadline in your acceptance letter, and the date will also appear on the +Author Status Page for your paper. Papers uploaded before the deadline +will be reproduced and shipped to the conference by AIAA at no charge. + +Authors who miss the electronic submission deadline will be expected to +hand-carry 100 copies of their paper to the meeting, and must still upload +their final manuscript to the AIAA Web site before the start of the conference +for their paper to be published. A general No paper, no podium rule is in +effect for all AIAA conferences. If your paper is not submitted to AIAA prior to +your presentation, you will not be allowed to present. If you miss the initial +deadline, contact your session chair or the conference Technical Chair for +further instructions. + +\subsection{Color Illustrations} + +Papers published electronically (online or on CD-ROMs) will be +reproduced in color automatically. If your paper is submitted to a loose +papers meeting (as specified in the author acceptance letter), color +printing can be arranged for an additional charge. Please contact the +technical papers specialist for details at +\href{mailto:bettyg@aiaa.org?subject=illustrations}% + {bettyg@aiaa.org}. + +\section{Detailed Formatting Instructions} + +\subsection{Document Text} + +The default font for AIAA papers written in \LaTeX\ is 10-point Computer +Modern (CM). + +\subsection{Title, Authors' Names, and Affiliations} + +The title of your paper should be coded as \verb|\title{Paper Title}|, +with capital and lower-case letters, and centered at the top of the +page. +The names of the authors, business or academic affiliation, city, and +state/province should follow on separate lines below the title. +The names of authors with the same affiliation can be listed on the same +line above their collective affiliation information. +The authors' names, contact information, and affiliation is coded within +\LaTeX's standard \verb|\author| using \verb|tabular| environment +conventions and the \verb|\thanks| and \verb|\and| commands. +The affiliation line for each author includes the author's city, state, +and zip/postal code (or city, province, zip/postal code and country, as +appropriate). +The contact information for each author is given by the \verb|\thanks| +command and should include job title, department name, street +address/mail stop, and the AIAA member grade. +If this information is the same for two or more authors, the subsequent +authors should use the \verb|\thanksibid{}| command which requires the +number of the duplicate author contact information. +Author names are centered, and affiliations are centered and in italic type. +The title is created by the \verb|\maketitle| command. +For example, +\begin{Verbatim} + \documentclass{aiaa-tc} + \title{Paper Title} + \author{% + Bil Kleb\thanks{Aerospace Engineer, Aerothermodynamics Branch, + Mail Stop 408a, Lifetime AIAA member.} + and Bill Wood\thanksibid{1}\\ + {\itseries NASA Langley Research Center, Hampton, Virginia, 23681} + \and% issues a \end{tabular} followed by a \begin{tabular}{c} + Someone Else\thanks{Job title, department name, street + address/mailstop, AIAA member grade.}\\ + {\itseries Business or Academic Affiliation, City, State, Zipcode} + } + \begin{document} + \maketitle +\end{Verbatim} + +\subsection{Headings} + +AIAA Technical Conferences style defines 3 levels of section +headings: +\begin{description} + \item Level 1 heading (\verb"\section"): bold, larger font, centered, + and numbered with Roman numerals. + \item Level 2 heading (\verb"\subsection"): bold, flush left, and + numbered with capital letters. No opening paragraph indentation. + \item Level 3 heading (\verb"\subsubsection"): italic, flush left, and + numbered with Arabic numbers (e.g., 1, 2, 3). No opening + paragraph indentation. +\end{description} + +\subsection{Abstract} + +The abstract should appear at the beginning of your paper. +It should be one paragraph long (not an introduction) and complete in +itself (no reference numbers). +It should indicate subjects dealt with in the paper and state the +objectives of the investigation. +Newly observed facts and conclusions of the experiment or argument +discussed in the paper must be stated in summary form; readers should +not have to read the paper to understand the abstract. + +\subsection{Footnotes and References} + +Footnotes, where they appear, should be placed above the 1-inch margin at +the bottom of the page. +To insert footnotes, use \verb|\footnote{}| as normal. +Footnotes are formatted automatically in \verb|aiaa.cls|, but if +another medium is used, they should appear in as superscript lower case +letters. +When adding notes to tables, e.g., as accommodated by the +\pkg{threeparttable} package, the symbols are down by hand and should be +in the sequence, *, $\dagger$, $\ddagger$, $\mathsection$, +$\mathparagraph$, $\|$, **, $\dagger\dagger$, and so forth. +This sequence should beginning anew with each table. + +List and number all bibliographical references at the end of the paper. +Corresponding superscript numbers are used to cite references in the +text using the \verb|\cite{}| command,\cite{sutton:85ar} unless the +citation is an integral part of the sentence (e.g., ``It is shown in +Ref.~\citen{miner:75ncr} that\ldots[.]'') +or follows a mathematical expression: ``$A2 + B = C$ +(Ref.~\citen{wirin:90cp}).'' +For this case, the command, \verb|\citen{}| is used. +\cite{*}% to load all refences for demonstration purposes which follow +Multiple citations are sorted and punctuated automatically through the +\cls{aiaa-tc}'s use of the \pkg{overcite}. +Separate reference numbers are shown with +commas\cite{sutton:85ar,miner:75ncr,turner:64a} and ranges are +separated by an en-dash.\cite{sutton:85ar,miner:75ncr,wirin:90cp} +Reference citations in the text should be in numerical order, which is +assured by using \textsc{Bib}\TeX. + +In the reference list, give all authors' names; do not use ``et al.'' +unless there are six authors or more. +Papers that have not been published should be cited as ``unpublished''; +papers that have been submitted or accepted for publication should be +cited as ``submitted for publication.'' +Private communications and personal Web sites should appear as footnotes +rather than in the reference list. + +References should be cited according to the standard publication +reference style. +(For examples, see the ``References'' section of this template.) +This is facilitated by the Bib\TeX\ database and a style file, \file{aiaa.bst}. +As a rule, all words are capitalized except for articles, conjunctions, +and prepositions of four letters or fewer. +Names and locations of publishers should be listed; month and year +should be included for reports and papers. +For papers published in translation journals, please give the English +citation first, followed by the original foreign language citation. + +\subsection{Images, Figures, and Tables} + +All artwork, captions, figures, graphs, and tables will be reproduced +exactly as submitted. +Be sure to position any figures, tables, graphs, or pictures as you want +them printed. +AIAA is not responsible for incorporating your figures, tables, +etc.% +\footnote{Company logos and identification numbers are not permitted on + your illustrations.} + +% an experiment with wrapfig -- read caveats documented in wrapfig.sty +\begin{wrapfigure}{R}{0.5\linewidth} + \includegraphics{figure_magnet} + \caption{Magnetization as a function of applied field, which has + borders so thick that they overwhelm the data and for some reason the + ordinate label is rotated 90 degrees to make it difficult to + read. This figure also demonstrates the dangers of using a bitmap + as opposed to a vector image.} + \label{f:magnetic_field} +\end{wrapfigure} + +Place figure captions below all figures; place table titles above the +tables.% +\footnote{Please do not include captions as part of the figure image +itself.} +If your figure has multiple parts, include the labels ``a),'' ``b),'' +and so on, below each subfigure and above the figure caption. +This can be accomplished with the \pkg{subfigure} package. +Please verify that the figures and tables you mention in the text +actually exist by using \LaTeX's \verb|\label| and \verb|\ref| mechanisms +and verifying that there are no undefined references during typesetting. + +When citing a figure in the text, use ``figure'' as ``Fig., often used +to refer to graphics, is an ugly abbreviation and is not worth the two +spaces saved.''\cite{tufte:83bk} +Do not abbreviate ``table'' either. +Each different type of illustration (i.e., figures, tables, or +images) should be numbered sequentially with relation to other +illustrations of the same type. + +Figure axis labels are often a source of confusion. +Use words rather than symbols. +As in the example to the right, write the quantity ``Magnetization'' +rather than just ``M.'' +Do not enclose units in parenthesis, but rather separate them from the +preceding text by commas. +Do not label axes only with units. +As in figure~\ref{f:magnetic_field}, for example, write ``Magnetization, +A/m'' or ``Magnetization, A m-1,'' not just ``A/m.'' +Do not label axes with a ratio of quantities and units. +For example, write ``Temperature, K,'' not ``Temperature/K.'' + +Multipliers can be especially confusing. +Write ``Magnetization, kA/m'' or ``Magnetization, 103 A/m.'' +Do not write ``Magnetization (A/m) $\times$ 1000'' because the reader +would not then know whether the top axis label in +figure~\ref{f:magnetic_field} meant 16000~A/m or 0.016~A/m. +Figure labels must be legible, approximately 8--12 point type. +Use of the \pkg{psfrag} package can facilitate this, but it makes +generating a PDF version of your paper difficult. + +Figures and tables are referred to as `Floats' in \LaTeX, reflecting +their floating nature. +They are typically numbered whether or not they have a caption and they +are floated to the first available position near the first reference to +that figure/table within the text. +This is accomplished by placing the figure/table environment after +their first reference. +The environment can even be placed mid-sentence as long as \LaTeX's +comment character, \%, is used properly to prevent a paragraph break or +extra spaces. +By default, floats are placed at the top of the first available page, +the bottom of the page, or one a page consisting entirely of floats. + +An example of coding a standard \verb|{figure}| is given below: +\begin{Verbatim} + \begin{figure} + \includegraphics{magetic_field} + \caption{Magnetization as a function of applied field, which has + borders so thick that they overwhelm from the data.} + \label{f:magnetic_field} + \end{figure} +\end{Verbatim} + +\begin{table} + \begin{center} + \begin{threeparttable} +

(1),'' not ``(1)'' or ``equation (1)'' except at the +beginning of a sentence: ``Equation (1) is phat.'' +Equations can be labeled other than ``Eq.'' should they represent +inequalities, matrices, or boundary conditions. +If what is represented is really more than one equation, the +abbreviation ``Eqs.'' can be used. + +Define abbreviations and acronyms the first time they are used in the +text, even after they have already been defined in the abstract. +Very common abbreviations such as AIAA, SI, ac, and dc do not have to be +defined. +Abbreviations that incorporate periods should not have spaces: write +``P.R.,'' not ``P. R.'' +Delete periods between initials if the abbreviation has three or more +initials; e.g., U.N. but ESA.\@ +Do not use abbreviations in the title unless they are unavoidable (for +instance, ``AIAA'' in the title of this article). + +\subsection{General Grammar and Preferred Usage} + +Use only one space after periods or colons. Hyphenate complex +modifiers: ``zero-field-cooled magnetization.'' +Avoid dangling participles, such as, ``Using Eq. (1), the potential was +calculated.'' +[It is not clear who or what used Eq. (1).] +Write instead ``The potential was calculated using Eq. (1),'' or ``Using +Eq.

Avoid contractions; for example, write +``do not'' instead of ``don't.'' +The serial comma is preferred: ``A, B, and C'' instead of ``A, B and C.'' + +If you wish, you may write in the first person singular or plural and +use the active voice (``I observed that\ldots'' or ``We observed that\ldots'' +instead of ``It was observed that…''). +Remember to check spelling. +If your native language is not English, please ask a native +English-speaking colleague to proofread your paper. + +The word ``data'' is plural, not singular (i.e., ``data are,'' not ``data +is''). +The subscript for the permeability of vacuum $\mu_0$ is zero, not a +lowercase letter ``oo.'' +The term for residual magnetization is ``remanence''; the adjective is +``remanent''; do not write ``remnance'' or ``remnant.'' +The word ``micrometer'' is preferred over ``micron'' when spelling out +this unit of measure. +A graph within a graph is an ``inset,'' not an ``insert.'' +The word ``alternatively'' is preferred to the word ``alternately'' +(unless you really mean something that alternates). +Use the word ``whereas'' instead of ``while'' (unless you are referring +to simultaneous events). +Do not use the word ``essentially'' to mean ``approximately'' or +``effectively.'' +Do not use the word ``issue'' as a euphemism for ``problem.'' +When compositions are not specified, separate chemical symbols by +en-dashes; for example, ``NiMn'' indicates the intermetallic compound +Ni$_{0.5}$Mn$_{0.5}$ whereas ``Ni--Mn'' indicates an alloy of some +composition Ni$_{x}$Mn$_{1-x}$. + +Be aware of the different meanings of the homophones ``affect'' (usually +a verb) and ``effect'' (usually a noun), ``complement'' and +``compliment,'' ``discreet'' and ``discrete,'' ``principal'' (e.g., +``principal investigator'') and ``principle'' (e.g., ``principle of +measurement''). Do not confuse ``imply'' and ``infer.'' + +Prefixes such as ``non,'' ``sub,'' ``micro,'' ``multi,'' and ``ultra'' +are not independent words; they should be joined to the words they +modify, usually without a hyphen. +There is no period after the ``et'' in the abbreviation ``et al.'' +The abbreviation ``i.e.,'' means ``that is,'' and the abbreviation +``e.g.,'' means ``for example'' (these abbreviations are not +italicized). +An excellent source of more detailed style and formatting instructions +can be found in the AIAA style guide, {\it AIAA Style} (available from AIAA +upon request). + +\section{Conclusion} + +A conclusion section is not required, though it is preferred. +Although a conclusion may review the main points of the paper, do not +replicate the abstract as the conclusion. +A conclusion might elaborate on the importance of the work or suggest +applications and extensions.% +\footnote{The conclusion section is the last section of + the paper that should be numbered. + The appendix (if present), acknowledgment, and references should be + listed without numbers.} + +\section*{Appendix} + +An appendix, if needed, should appear before the acknowledgments. +Use the 'starred' version of the \verb|\section| commands to avoid +section numbering. + +\section*{Acknowledgments} + +The preferred spelling of the word ``acknowledgment'' in American +English is without the ``e'' after the ``g.'' +Avoid expressions such as ``One of us (S.B.A.) would like to thank\ldots[.]'' +Instead, write ``F.
