Style Error: [Journal of Materials Science]

Hi,

I'm just finding the style of Journal of Materials Science has some differences with its guideline.
https://www.springer.com/materials/journal/10853

Differences are shown as an example:
Old version (still online):
1. Sun Q, Fang X, Wang Y, et al (2018) Changes in misorientations of { 10-10} twin boundaries in deformed magnesium alloy. J Mater Sci 53:7834–7844 . doi: 10.1007/s10853-018-2068-z

Modified version followed by the guideline of this journal:
[1] Sun Q, Fang X, Wang Y, Tan L, Zhang X (2018) Changes in misorientations of { 10-10} twin boundaries in deformed magnesium alloy. J Mater Sci 53:7834–7844. doi: 10.1007/s10853-018-2068-z


(1) In the reference list “ET AL.” for references with 8 or more authors.

(2) No space after the page information Not this: "J Mater Sci 53:7834–7844 .", but this: "J Mater Sci 53:7834–7844."

(3) The style for numbering the references. Not this:"1. ", but this:"[1] "

Thank you for any help in advance.

Regards,
Fei.

    Hi,

    the style is a dependent style of this one: https://www.zotero.org/styles?q=id:springer-basic-brackets&format=numeric

    their guidelines:
    Example:
    [1] O’Brien CJ and Foiles SM (2016) Exploration of the mechanisms of temperature-dependent grain boundary mobility: search for the common origin of ultrafast grain boundary motion, J Mater Sci 51:6607–6623.

    A recent paper from Feb2018:
    [1] Asta M, Morgan D, Hoyt JJ et al (1999) Embedded-atommethod
    study of structural, thermodynamic, and atomictransport
    properties of liquid Ni–Al alloys. Phys Rev B 59:14271–14281. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.59.14271

    Are you sure you're actually using the journal-of-materials-science style or the springer-basic-brackets style?




  • I think I used the right one and I tried the style you attached above. It is the same style I used before. It still had some differences with the example you gave above, such as 1. not [1]. I add this style by downloading it from the link you gave and adding into Zotero. Did I miss some steps?
