How to write a technical work

Writing a research article can be a daunting task, and often, writers are not certain what should be included and how the information should be conveyed. Fortunately, scientific and engineering journal articles follow an accepted format. They contain an introduction which includes a statement of the problem, a literature review, and a general outline of the paper, a methods section detailing the methods used, separate or combined results, discussion and application sections, and a final summary and conclusions section. Here, each of these elements is described in detail using examples from the published literature as illustration. Guidance is also provided with respect to style, getting started, and the revision/review process.
