HIGHLIGHTS与ABSTRACT的区别是什么？

HIGHLIGHTS与ABSTRACT

区别是什么？

答

HIGHLIGHTS只是Elsevier旗下的期刊要求作者必须提供的一个内容。不是所有期刊都包括HIGHLIGHTS的。

HIGHLIGHTS的作用是让读者对论文的亮点“一目了然”！对于读者来说，HIGHLIGHTS提供的信息能够比看摘要更快速地帮助他们决定是否进一步阅读论文。

Applied Energy是必须包含HIGHLIGHTS的。为区别ABSTRACT和HIGHLIGHTS我们可以先看一下Guide for Authors的要求:

Highlights

Highlights are mandatory for this journal. They consist of a short collection of bullet points that convey the core findings of the article and should be submitted in a separate editable file in the online submission system. Please use 'Highlights' in the file name and include 3 to 5 bullet points (maximum 85 characters, including spaces, per bullet point).

Abstract

A concise and factual abstract is required. The abstract should state briefly the purpose of the research, the principal results and major conclusions. An abstract is often presented separately from the article, so it must be able to stand alone. For this reason, References should be avoided, but if essential, then cite the author(s) and year(s). Also, non-standard or uncommon abbreviations should be avoided, but if essential they must be defined at their first mention in the abstract itself.

通过以上定义，我们可以很容易看到ABSTRACT和 HIGHLIGHTS二者的区别。

撰写HIGHLIGHTS要注意:

Highlights可以由“要点”即若干关键词组成，不需要是完整的句子;

限制在85个字符内(摘要一般在200个词左右)，篇幅更精炼;

只包含“core findings”重要发现。研究的目的、方法等等应该放在摘要中。

某种意义上HIGHLIGHTS是更短的CONCLUSION。

几个HIGHLIGHTS例子:

例一:

Highlights

? The demand-response potential of heat pumps is estimated based on measurement data.

? Real-life experiments with more than 300 heat pumps yield load reductions of 40–65%.

? The load reductions can be predicted with a median absolute percentage error of below 7%.

? Rebound damping can reduce peak rebound power by 50% in practice.

例二:

Highlights

? A hierarchical model simulates solid oxide cells and stacks for co-electrolysis.

? The model agrees well with electrochemical and thermal measurements from single cells.

? Performance and cost analysis of cells producing syngas in two output H2:CO ratios.

? 3-D stack temperature profiles and comparison of cell and stack performance.

? Simulation of stack operation under various regimes to evaluate transients.

例三:

Highlights

? Geospatial maps are used to estimate the charging load of electric vehicles in cities.

? Three distinct charging profiles are assumed in the city: Home, Work, and Other.

? Charging stations belong to a mixture of profiles depending on their nearby buildings.

? Using 22?kW chargers resulted in a load with a peak of 1.47?kW/electric vehicle.

? Fast charging causes high variability in the load when many cars start/stop charging.

问

Graphic Abstract(图示摘要)是什么？

答

图示摘要Graphic Abstract不是必须的。它主要是为了吸引读者尤其网上论文关注而设计的。好的Graphic Abstract 应该能够用一张图系统全面地展示你的研究内容和成果。

Graphical Abstract

Although a graphical abstract is optional, its use is encouraged as it draws more attention to the online article. The graphical abstract should summarize the contents of the article in a concise, pictorial form designed to capture the attention of a wide readership. Graphical abstracts should be submitted as a separate file in the online submission system. Image size: Please provide an image with a minimum of 531 × 1328 pixels (h × w) or proportionally more. The image should be readable at a size of 5 × 13 cm using a regular screen resolution of 96 dpi. Preferred file types: TIFF, EPS, PDF or MS Office files.
