(2021) European Combustion Meeting LaTeX Template

This repository contains the (unofficial) LaTeX template for the European Sections of the Combustion Institute (ESCI). This repository is a fork of the USSCI template developed by Bryan W. Weber and Kyle E. Niemeyer. The source for the original template can be found online at https://github.com/pr-omethe-us/ussci-latex-template This fork for the ECM/ESCI is hosted at https://github.com/mefuller/ecm-latex-template

Instructions

  1. Download a zip file of this repository and extract it
  2. Open and try to build the template.tex file to make sure that everything works properly
  3. If your references don't end up as numbers, make sure that your TeX environment/editor is set to use biber to compile the references. By default, most editors (such as TeXStudio) default to using BibTeX.
  4. Copy the template.tex file and edit it to add your paper content

Tips and Tricks

Figures and tables aren't displaying as intended?

Standard figure and table floats may not display as desired in the multicol environment. Floats may be made to span the page using the * variants, e.g.

\begin{figure*}
  % figure here (includegraphics or whatever)
  \caption{Figure description}
\end{figure*}

Alternatively, you may wish to define a new environment, e.g. the multicolumn figure (mcfigure):

\newenvironment{mcfigure}
	{\par\medskip\noindent\minipage{\linewidth}}
	{\endminipage\par\medskip}

To include captions in the new environment use the caption package:

\usepackage{caption}
...
\begin{mcfigure}
	% figure here (includegraphics or whatever)
	\captionof{figure}{Figure description}
\end{mcfigure}

Column-width overruns

The interword spacing may be made increasingly elastic by adding \sloppy to the preamble. This helps in cases where words are overrunning the column bounds.
