# Instruction for Authors

## **Instructions for Authors**

#### Abstract requirements and submission process

Abstracts should be 1-page long and must include one illustrative figure outlining the quality of the results. Abstracts are expected to address the four major review criteria below. A comparison to reference solutions will grant higher scores. 
An exemplary abstract can be found [here](https://dual.sphysics.org/8thworkshop/workshop/instruction-for-authors/Abstract_Example_for__8th_DualSPHysics_Workshop_v2.docx).

A PDF version of the abstract should be submitted by **October 24, 2025**, via email to <dualsphysics@gmail.com>. 
The email subject should read “8th DualSPHysics Workshop – Abstract LastName”.

#### Review Process

The quality of the abstracts will be assessed using averaged ratings for 4 equally important criteria:

1. **Novelty**
2. **Code improvements**
3. **Current limitations**
4. **Validations & predictive improvements over the state-of-the-art**

Abstracts will be reviewed by the Scientific Committee. The result of the abstract review will be communicated via email by **October 31, 2025** to all authors who submitted an abstract.

#### DualSPHysics Student Prize

The Scientific Committee will award the DualSPHysics Student Prize for the best abstract and presentation. Authors who would like to sign up for the DualSPHysics Student Prize ***must*** indicate it in the abstract submission email. To be eligible for the student prize, the student must present the work at the workshop and be first author of the abstract.
