Author Guidelines
Submission
All submissions should be made online at the the Baltic Journal of Road and Bridge Engineering site https://bjrbe-journals.rtu.lv by using "Make a Submission" button.
New users will need to create an account. Once logged on to the site authors may make a submission or check the status of the manuscript.
Peer-review and decisions
The journal uses double-blind peer review (neither the authors nor the reviewers know the identity of each other) to avoid bias. See the journal policies Peer review.
Manuscripts should be submitted as two separate files in Word format (see in Template of a manuscript).
After submission all articles are evaluated by the editorial office and may be immediately rejected if they are considered to be out of the journal's scope or otherwise unfit for consideration. Articles which passed initial evaluation will be sent out for external review. Reviewer reports with a decision from the editor will be returned to the authors as soon as possible, but please be patient as reviewing can take up to 60 days.
After review, the editor will make a decision of: reject, accept, or revise. Revisions may be major or minor. If a decision of revision is made, authors are asked to make their revisions as quickly as possible – if there are extensive delays in revising an article then it may be considered a new submission. Revised articles may be sent out for review again, depending on the level of revision requested.
Publication charges
The journal is an open access peer-reviewed journal owned by Riga Technical University (RTU). It is completely free of charges (APC and submission charges) to both authors and readers. All publication fees are covered by Riga Technical University and the Baltic Road Association.
See the journal policies Fees and Charges.
Copyright and publication
During submission you will be asked to sign documents (Licence to Publish, Conflict of Interest declaration form) about the article (see Journal policies). These include affirming that it is original and does not infringe any legal or personal rights (e.g. copyright, libel or privacy). Authors retain copyright in their articles, but grant RTU Press the right of the first publication.
All papers will be published open access under a Creative Commons CC BY 4.0 licence. This ensures that they receive the maximum dissemination because there are no barriers to access. This licence allows readers to disseminate and reuse the paper, but always requires them to grant the authors and the first publication full credit.
See Open Access Policy of Riga Technical University.
Article types
The journal welcomes all original submissions of articles and reviews that comply with the Aims and Scope of the journal.
All submissions must be original papers, and not be under consideration by a journal elsewhere.
If the paper contains anything that has already been published (e.g. figures) then this must be declared and authors are responsible for obtaining relevant permissions to republish. Evidence of permission granted must be available if requested – see in Reproduction of copyright material.
Template of a manuscript
The paper should be submitted in two different word documents.
The linked <Word template for Title Page> and <Word template for Anonymized Document> should be used for the preparation of the manuscript for this journal.
Title page should include a title of the paper, author's names, institutional affiliations, addresses, e-mails, ORCID, identification of the corresponding author, abstract and keywords of the paper. Acknowledgements, Funding, Disclosure statement, and Contribution should be provided in a title page in order to ensure author anonymity.
Anonymized document should include a title, abstract, keywords, the main body text where personal data excluded in order to ensure author anonymity (it should be provided in title page) and references. The personal information will be included in the manuscript after peer-review process.
General guidelines
Only English language articles are accepted. Authors are responsible for the language quality in their article, and is strongly recommended to have your manuscript checked by a native speaker or an English language specialist before submission, in order to ensure that the language is acceptable.
For all manuscripts non-discriminatory language is mandatory. Sexist or racist terms must not be used.
Authors should provide the following information:
– Full name
– Affiliation (where the author was positioned when the research was undertaken – if authors change affiliation before publishing this should be given as a footnote)
– Address
– Email address
– ORCiD, this is not mandatory, but highly recommended for the benefit of authors: unique author identifier that ensures that all your works are correctly attributed to you – see https://orcid.org
– Clear identification of the corresponding author (who will be responsible for ensuring that the correct version is submitted and that all authors agree to publication and approve any corrections during peer review and after acceptance).
Each article must comprise:
– An informative title: ensure that it clearly explains what the article is about (not exceed 20 words)
– An abstract of approximately 200 words: this should summarise the article, not simply introduce the topic
– Between 6–10 key words
– The main body of text should not exceed 6000–8000 words and should comprise:
An introduction to the topic, describing the research question being addressed
Methodology and/or theoretical framework
Results of the research
Discussion and interpretation of results obtained
