Style Request: Journal of Biomechanics
It's very similar to the American Psychological Association 6th Edition style. The official guidelines here only have a few examples that I pasted below for convenience:
http://www.jbiomech.com/authorinfo
I tried to summarize the few differences below...
In text citations:
-3 or more author should be listed as first author et al.
Bibliography:
-year not in parentheses
-no DOI
-if the reference is a PhD thesis, it should say so after the title (see below)
EXAMPLES
References are indicated in the text alphabetically by names of the authors and the year of publication, e.g. Ralston (1957) or (Brown and Shaw, 1984; Lai et al., 1978).
A. Journals:
The reference should include the title of the paper, the title of the journal in full and the first and last page number.
Belardinelli, E. Cavalcanti, S., 1991. A new non-linear two-dimensional model of blood motion in tapered and elastic vessels. Computers in Biology and Medicine 21, 1-3.
B. Books:
If the work referred to is a book, or part of a book, the reference should be in the following form:
Weiner, S., Traub, W., 1991. Organization of crystals in bone. In: Suga, S., Nakahara, H. (Eds.), Mechanisms and Phylogeny of Mineralisations in Biological Systems. Springer, Tokyo, pp. 247-253.
C. Theses
van Werff, K., 1977. Kinematic and dynamic analysis of mechanisms. A finite element approach. PhD. thesis, Delft University Press, Delft.
D. Proceedings
van Soest, A. J., van den Bogert, A. J., 1991. Criteria for the comparison of direct dynamics software systems to be used in the field of biomechanics. In Proceedings of the 3rd International Symposium on Computer Simulation in Biomechanics. University of Western Australia, Perth.
