of the $urrent designations.

,se either S( (-@S) or &?S as primary units. (S( units
are en$ouraged.) 9nglish units may be used as
se$ondary units (in parentheses). An e8$eption 5ould
be the use of 9nglish units as identifiers in trade# su$h
as 2%.B"in$h disA dri1e.4
A1oid $ombining S( and &?S units# su$h as $urrent in
amperes and magneti$ field in oersteds. This often leads
to $onfusion be$ause e6uations do not balan$e
dimensionally. (f you must use mi8ed units# $learly state
the units for ea$h 6uantity that you use in an e6uation.
+o not mi8 $omplete spellings and abbre1iations of

organiation). This template 5as designed for t5o affiliations.

". Identif$ the Headings
Ceadings# or heads# are organiational de1i$es that guide
the reader through your paper. There are t5o types: $omponent
heads and te8t heads.
&omponent heads identify the different $omponents of your
paper and are not topi$ally subordinate to ea$h other. 98amples

these# the $orre$t style to use is 2Ceading B.4 ,se 2figure

apply a style (in this $ase# itali$) in addition to the style
pro1ided by the drop do5n menu to differentiate the head from
the te8t.
Te8t heads organie the topi$s on a relational# hierar$hi$al
basis. :or e8ample# the paper title is the primary te8t head
be$ause all subse6uent material relates and elaborates on this
one topi$. (f there are t5o or more sub"topi$s# the ne8t le1el
head (upper$ase )oman numerals) should be used and#
$on1ersely# if there are not at least t5o sub"topi$s# then no
subheads should be introdu$ed. Styles named 2Ceading 1#4
