Study should be summarized in about 200 ~300 words.

Abstract
The length of the abstract should be 200-300 words. In the beginning of the abstract, the subject of the paper
should be stated clearly, together with its scope and objectives. Then, the methods, equipment, results andconclusions in the paper should be stated concisely in a sufficiently logical manner. The discussion on the results
may also be stated to emphasize their importance appropriately. ----------------------------------------------Common mistake: Making indent and

In preparing the manuscript with Microsoft (MS) Word, please read and observe this sample manuscript carefully.
For LaTeX users, template files are provided separately.
The recommended structure of a manuscript is as follows: Introduction (purpose of the research, significance of theresearch supported by a literature survey, outline of contents, and so on), Nomenclature (symbols and subscripts, and soon), Main body of the text (theoretical analysis, method and results of experiment, interpretation of results and discussion,and so on), Conclusion (conclusions obtained through the research), Acknowledgment, Appendixes, References.
Apart from the above example, a different structure of manuscript may be accepted if it is the most suitable andeffective style for the contents of the manuscript.

Heading must be left-justified.

Common mistake: Some sentences stick out the template sentence width.

2. Title, authors' name and affiliations

6mm indent

The title should be concise but sufficiently descriptive to identify the contents of the paper. A lively and informative
one may be preferred. A subtitle may be used as needed, although expressions such as "the first report" and "the second
report" are not acceptable. Nonstandard abbreviations and acronyms should be avoided in the title. Only the first wordof title should be capitalized.
The names of authors should be placed immediately below the title. The given names and family names should bespelled out with each character of family names capitalized. In the address (all authors’ addresses should be listed except
when multiple authors have the same address), give the prefecture, ward, city and postal code. Give "the country name"Author need not edit paper number and DOI.

3. Chapter heading

Manuscript has a line space between the chapter heading and main body sentence.

The main body of the text should be suitably divided into sections (and if necessarily subsections), each with aheading.
No space between the clause heading and its main body sentence is no problem.

3.1 Clause heading
The main body of the text should be suitably divided into sections (and if necessarily subsections), each with aheading.
No space between the section heading and its main body sentence is no problem.

3.1.1 Section heading
The main body of the text should be suitably divided into sections (and if necessarily subsections), each with aheading.
First letter of heading is capital letter

The main body of the text should be suitably divided into sections (and if necessarily subsections), each with aheading.

5. Abstract
Title and abstract are the keys to your work. The length of the abstract should be 200-300 words. The abstract should
appear immediately following the title, authors' names and affiliations. In the abstract, the authors should clearly state
the contents of the manuscript so that readers can understand the contents of the paper without reading the main body.
Our journals place importance on the sufficiently informative abstract. Authors should carefully prepare the abstract,referring to the following instruction: In the beginning of the abstract, the subject of the paper should be stated clearly,
together with its scope and objectives. Then, the methods, equipment, results and conclusions in the paper should bestated concisely in a sufficiently logical manner. The discussion on the results may also be stated to emphasize theirimportance appropriately. A summary leading to conclusions is not required. Figures, tables and references in the text
should not be cited. If the citation of an equation is unavoidable, the full equation should be given rather than citing only
the equation number. Do not insert line feeds in the abstract, i.e., the abstract should be written as only one paragraph.

6. Keywords
Five to ten keywords should be given below the abstract. The keywords should be chosen so that they would best
describe the contents of the paper. They are also useful in the classification and search of papers. The use of hyphens,
prepositions and articles should be avoided. Capitalize the initial letter of each word.

7. Figures, tables, photographs and online supplements
Common mistake: The heading and its sentence are separated by astride pages[DOI: 10.1299/xxx.2017xxx000x]© 2017 The Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers

Kikai, Gijyutsu and Tokyo, Mechanical Engineering Journal, Vol.00, No.00 (2017)

7. Figures, tables, photographs and online supplements
Figures, photographs and tables can be used to describe clearly and accurately the contents of the paper. In general,figures are useful for presenting general tendencies, and tables are suitable for presenting specific numeric values anddata. The use of figures, tables and others should be limited to important and representative ones that make the authors'statement persuasive. Since our journals are on-line journals, figures, photographs and tables can be presented in color.
Figures and tables should be presented with sufficiently informative captions. Too short captions are not accepted
except when they are enough. Every caption should be complete and intelligible by itself without references to the text.
See an example shown below. When figures from other papers are reprinted, the permission of the original authors is
required. Figures and tables should be layout on the page corresponding to the main text or near the citation in the text.
Manuscript has space between the sentence and the table at least a line.
Abbreviation is prohibited.

Caption is Abbreviated.
Common mistake example:
Figure 1 The ~Fig. 1 The nonlinear propagation of plane acoustic wave radiated by the sound source. Using the exact solution of thesystem of Euler equations, the nondimensional profiles of fluid velocity, acoustic pressure and temperature variation
at the time of shock formation are plotted with the solid (black), dashed (red) and dash-dotted (blue) curves,
respectively. As the wave propagates, the nonlinear effect accumulates to distort the profile, and ultimately leads tothe formation of shock wave. The shock formation point is denoted by a small arrow in the figure.
Figure caption must be directly below its figure.
Common mistake: the figure (also table) and its caption are shown astride 2 pages.

8. Citation of equations, references, tables, figures and others in the text
At the beginning of a sentence, "Equation" and "Figure" should not be abbreviated. Within a sentence, an equation
is cited with the number and "Eq." for example, "Eq. (1)," and at the beginning of a sentence, it should be written out as"Equation (1)." Within a sentence, a figure should be cited with "Fig.," for example, "Fig. 1," and at the beginning of asentence, it should be written out as "Figure 1."
Manuscript has space between the sentence and equation at least a line.

Equation number is right-justified.

10. References
Citations in the text are indicated by author’s last name and year with the list of references arranged in alphabeticorder: for example, (Ahrendt and Taplin, 1951) or the book by Ahrendt and Taplin (1951). For a reference from three ormore authors, the citation in the text is indicated by the first author's name followed by "et al." and the year: for example,(Takeuchi et al., 2006). More than one reference from the same author(s) in the same year are identified by the letters"a", "b", "c", placed after the year: for example, (Karin and Hanamura, 2010a, 2010b). Unpublished works (including
papers not yet submitted or not yet published) should be avoided. The complete name of the journal referred to should
be given. Cite references published as recently as possible. It is recommended for contributors to cite articles publishedin journals of the JSME, if possible. If a reference is not written in English, authors are required to translate the title into
English and indicate the original language as "(in Japanese)," for example. See an example below.
