Submissions

Author Guidelines

The submitted papers are subject to a double-blinded peer review process, in order for the Editorial Board to select for publishing the articles meeting the highest possible standards in electrical engineering. The reviewers' identities are not disclosed to the authors, nor are the authors' identities disclosed to the reviewers.

When a manuscript is submitted to ELEKTRIKA Journal, it undergoes an initial prescreening by the Editorial Board in order to determine whether or not the paper fits the scope of the Journal. If the Editorial Board feels the manuscript meets the journal's minimum standards for publication, the paper then enters a blind reviewing process.

In the main reviewing phase, the Executive Editor or a designated editorial board member sends the received papers, without the name and affiliation of the authors, to two experts in the field, by using the on-line web-based paper management system. The electronic evaluation form used by reviewers contains a checklist in order to help referees to cover all aspects that can decide the publication. In the final section of the evaluation form, the reviewers must include observations and suggestions for improvement that are sent to the authors, without the names of the reviewers.

All the reviewers of a paper remain anonymous to the authors and act independently before, during, and after the evaluation process. If the decisions of the two reviewers are not the same (accept/reject), the paper is sent to a third reviewer.

The final decision for publication is done by the Editor-in-Chief based on the scrutiny of reviewers and the scope of the journal.

The Editor-in-Chief is responsible for the quality and selection of manuscripts chosen to be published, and the authors are always responsible for the content of each article.

A brief acknowledgment of not more than 50 words should be included at the end of the manuscripts, before the list of references. Acknowledgement could be made to funding body, institution/universities/organization or individual/person.

Example:

1. Acknowledgement to funding body (Grant number) : This work was supported by the Trust [grant numbers xxxx, yyyy]; the Natural Environment Research Council [grant number zzzz]; and the Economic and Social Research Council [grant number aaaa].

2. Acknowledgement to institution/universities/organization: We would like to thank XYZ University for their helpful feedback and support.

3. Acknowledgement to individual/person: We would like to express our sincere gratitude to our supervisor, Professor John Doe, for his valuable guidance and support throughout the research process. His expertise and insights were invaluable in shaping our research and helping us to overcome challenges.
