How to do citations in Computational Mechanics style?

cite Computational Mechanics — Referencing Guide

How do you cite a book in the Computational Mechanics referencing style?

Here’s an example book citation in Computational Mechanics using placeholders:

Last Name FN (2000) Title, Edition. Publisher, City

So if we want to cite, for example, “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings” by Maya Angelou we’d do so like this:
Computational Mechanics citation:

Angelou M (1969) I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, 1st ed. Random House, New York

And an in-text citation book citation in Computational Mechanics looks like this: [1]

How to reference a journal article in the Computational Mechanics citation style?

How do you cite scientific papers in Computational Mechanics format?

Here’s a Computational Mechanics journal citation example using placeholders:

Author1 LastnameAF, Author3 LastnameAF (2000) Title. Container Volume:pages Used. https://doi.org/DOI

So if we want to reference this scientific article: “Testing consumer preferences for iced-coffee: Does the drinking environment have any influence?” by C. Petit and J.M. Sieffermann in Computational Mechanics:

Petit C, Sieffermann J (2007) Testing consumer preferences for iced-coffee: Does the drinking environment have any influence?. 18:161-172. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.foodqual.2006.05.008

And an in-text citation would look like this: [1]

How to cite a website in a paper in Computational Mechanics style?

Here’s an Computational Mechanics example website reference:

Author1 LastnameAF, Author2 LastnameAF (2000) Title. https://www.example.com. Accessed 5 Dec. 2021

To reference the article located at this link:
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2008/nov/05/uselections20083
on The Guardian website:

Tran M (2008) Barack Obama To Be America’s First Black President. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2008/nov/05/uselections20083. Accessed 5 Dec. 2021

And an in-text citation would look like this: [1]
