About the journal
INSIGHT - Non-Destructive Testing and Condition Monitoring is the Journal of The British Institute of Non-Destructive Testing. It was launched in April 1994, replacing the former British Journal of Non-Destructive Testing and incorporating, in quarterly issues, the former European Journal of Non-Destructive Testing.
INSIGHT is published monthly and circulated worldwide to more than 65 countries.
It covers NDT in its widest sense. Each issue includes technical articles on a broad range of subjects and general news stories affecting the whole industry.
INSIGHT contains:
Technical and scientific reviews.
Original research and development papers.
Practical case studies and surveys.
Details of products and services.
Newsdesk - contract and marketing news from the industry.
NDT Info - the world's most comprehensive serially published survey of NDT literature.
Technical literature - a comprehensive review of relevant literature, including the latest international standards and safety information.
International Diary - comprehensive listing of information and Calls for Papers concerning relevant events, conferences, symposia and exhibitions.
Profiles on personalities and organisations associated with the industry.
Each issue embraces matter that is highly relevant to a wide range of readers, including engineers, technicians, academics and scientists, appealing to practitioners and young graduates alike.
INSIGHT's features programme is engineered to provide a balanced platform with a broad scope, maximising readership appeal.
Instructions to Authors
Editorial Policy
The editorial policy of the Journal ensures that each issue contains matter that is highly
relevant to a wide range of readers, including engineers, technicians, academics and
scientists, appealing to practitioners and young graduates alike.
The Institute invites contributions of quality and originality which will interest the
readership of the Journal. Technical papers submitted are peer-reviewed by at least
two referees. The decision to publish rests solely with the Technical Committee.
Copyright
Authors of papers accepted for publication are requested to assign copyright to The
British Institute of Non-Destructive Testing.
Full responsibility for the paper rests with the author(s), who, where appropriate, must
have obtained permission to publish the material including permission to use any material
that may be protected by copyright.
The Manuscript
The manuscript should be typed in English, on A4-size paper on one side only,
double-spaced with a margin of at least 25 mm all round. Pages should be numbered
consecutively.
An original plus three copies should be sent to the Institute, marked for the attention
of the Editor. Please do not send faxes of manuscripts. Where possible, computer disks
containing the contents of the paper should be provided (see ‘Electronic submission’).
Papers should be limited in length to 5000 words and 15 illustrations.
Language and grammar
The manuscript should be written clearly in English. Insight does not have the resource
to re-write articles which have been poorly written or translated, or which contain major
deficiencies in English grammar. It is recommended that authors who are not fluent in
English should have their manuscript checked by a translator or native English speaker
prior to submission.
Electronic Submission
Electronic submission of papers - either by e-mail or on computer disks - is accepted
subject to the following conditions:
1. A letter of confirmation is mailed to the Editor - Insight.
2. The text (only) of the paper should be included as a separate file. This should be in
‘text-only’ or Rich Text Format (RTF) to avoid compatibility problems between IBM
and Apple Macintosh computers.
3. Diagrams, graphs and pictures associated with the text should not be embedded
within the document - they should be sent as separate files in TIFF, EPS or .bmp
format, preferably. A list of captions should be provided separately. (See also
‘Illustrations’).
4. Files can be ‘zipped’ or encoded as appropriate.
The content of the article should be arranged in the following order:
Title
The title should be brief but informative, emphasising the specific contributions of the
paper.
Name(s) of author(s)
Affiliation(s) of author(s), in full, including telephone numbers and e-mail address.
Abstract
The abstract should be 150-200 words in length and it should accurately reflect the scope
and contents of the article, highlighting the important findings and conclusions.
Keywords
For indexing.
Article
The article should commence with an Introduction, which should be a brief narrative
statement providing readers with a sense of purpose and content for the entire document.
Previous work should be referenced.
The main body of the article is where the theme is developed, experimental methods
detailed (where appropriate) and results discussed.
The conclusion is a generalisation or truth that can be inferred from the data presented
in the article. It may include recommendations and implications. It should be brief and
precise. The reasons for the entire work should lie within the conclusions.
Illustrations
All illustrations, including line drawings, diagrams and photographs, should be clearly
numbered and referred to in the text. Captions should be set out on a separate sheet
and denoted Figure 1, 2, etc.
For line drawings, diagrams and graphs, camera-ready material should be submitted.
Material may be redrawn when necessary but this incurs additional cost and time.
Good-contrast colour or black-and-white photographic prints should be supplied.
Pictures cannot normally be reproduced in colour, except when this is essential. However,
this incurs cost, which may be recoverable.
Pictures will be reduced to a size suitable for reproduction (normally 85 mm wide)
and the thickness of line and letter size should be such as to allow for this reduction.
Illustrations sent should be adequately protected against damage during transit.
Originals cannot normally be returned after use but if this is demanded, the request,
with return address details, should be made clearly in writing.
Diagrams and photographs may be supplied in electronic format provided this is
done in accordance with the conditions for electronic submission - see above. Halftone
or greyscale pictures should be scanned or produced at 300 dpi. If JPG format is used,
settings should be for high quality images. Line drawings should be scanned at 1000
dpi minimum and saved in TIFF format.
Images should not be embedded in Word documents. Where this is unavoidable
and a Figure has been produced in Word, it will be scanned from hard copy. PowerPoint
files cannot be accepted.
Tables
Tables, numbered separately from illustrations, should be set out on a separate sheet
(unless very short) and each should bear a separate short descriptive title.
Mathematical symbols and expressions
Special care must be taken with mathematical expressions, which should be set out
very clearly using printed letters rather than script, especially where suffixes and indices
are involved. Where possible, MathType equation editor should be used to produce
equations.
Units
Authors should use the International System of Units (SI).
Acronyms
The entire sequence of words should be written before an acronym appears by itself
within a document. The acronym - uppercase and enclosed in parenthesis - should follow
the first usage. After the sequence of words and acronym have been written together the
first time, the acronym may then be written by itself. If the acronym is plural, a lowercase
‘s’ can be attached to it. (Exceptions: for acronyms that have become common words,
for example ‘radar’, the above rule does not apply).
Acknowledgement - If appropriate.
References
References should be written in the order in which they appear in the text in the
following format:
1. L Udpa and S S Udpa, ‘Neural Networks for the Classification of Non-Destructive
Evaluation Signals’, IEE Proceedings-F, Vol 138, No 1, pp 201-205, February
1991.
The reference point in the text should be formatted thus (1).
Appendices
These should bear appropriate heading and names of authors (if different from those
of the main paper). For more than one Appendix, these should be numbered using
Roman numerals.
Biographic Footnote
A short paragraph of 60-70 words in length containing brief education and career details
about each author/co-author should be set out on a separate sheet, accompanied by
a head and shoulders photograph. For presentation reasons, the biography and
photographs will only be used where there are up to two co-authors. For three or more
authors, a brief statement of qualifications, current employment and, where applicable,
Institute membership will be published for each.
