The editorial board of the journal "Measurement Techniques and Metrology" informs the authors that they bear full personal responsibility for incorrect borrowing or use of the results of other people's research and compliance with the ethics of scientific citation. Only original materials that have not been published before are accepted for publication.
Authors must ensure:
originality of the submitted articles, i.e. materials that have not been published in other publications in any languages;
absence of plagiarism;
references to relevant sources if works or texts of third parties are used.
The journal "Measurement Techniques and Metrology" uses the "Strikeplagiarism" software to
control and detect text borrowing in submitted manuscripts. The percentage of plagiarism is
calculated using software that checks documents for the presence of borrowings both in the local database and on the Internet. The resulting report is analyzed by the editorial board.
The editorial board of the publication analyzes all cases of recorded plagiarism and reserves the right to not allow the manuscript to the review process. Scientific works received by the journal editorial board are analyzed according to the following indicators:
if the originality of the manuscript text is more than 85% - the material is allowed for consideration;
if the originality of the work is from 75 to 85% - the scientific work is returned to the authors for revision with a recommendation to review text borrowings and re-send the revised article;
less than 75% - the manuscript is not accepted for consideration;
no more than 3% plagiarism from one source is allowed.
Plagiarism in all forms is unacceptable and is considered a manifestation of unethical actions and a violation of the system of norms of professional conduct in the relations between authors, reviewers, editors, publishers and
readers, which contradicts the provisions of the Publication Ethics section. If the fact of text borrowing was recorded after publication, then the editorial board conducts a thorough analysis of it. The journal editorial board will definitely contact the author and inform him of the circumstances that arose.
