Proceedings, containing extended abstracts presented at this conference will be
produced from the manuscripts received from authors. Please read through all the information provided here. Issues raised in one section may be discussed more
fully in a later section.
Notes from the Technical Chair:
Thank you for your participation in the Hydraulic Measurements & Experimental Methods 2007 conference. There are a few items that we would like you to take notice of in the preparation of your final paper submissions:
Permission from facility owner: The instructions have a section titled permissions that deals with copyright issues. However, please make certain that you have obtained permission(s) to present from the responsible owning authority of the featured project. We have had situations in the past where people have not been able to present because the owner objects after they find out at a later date. Commercialization: Commercialization in the form of touting a firm, company or product is unacceptable and will not be allowed in the final version of the papers.
Final papers due by August 5th, 2007.
Thank You,
Technical Program Chair

Paper Format Information:
Length. Length is restricted to a minimum of 4 pages and a maximum of 6 pages. The total extended abstract length includes all text, graphics, and appendices. Please note the proceedings will not contain PowerPoint Presentations.
Point size and font. Use 12 point type for text, captions, and author contact information. For type within figures or tables, the 12 point size is preferred. We recommend selecting a serif text font such as Times Roman. Italics, bold, and bold italics may be used; we recommend sticking to one “family” of typefaces.
Headers and footers. Do not put any information in the header. The only acceptable content in the footer is a single page number.
Layout. All text must be single-spaced. Page design should be consistent throughout the extended abstract.
Margin settings (see below) must contain all elements of the extended abstract that will be reproduced (text, figures, tables, captions). Imagine a “box” whose width does not exceed 5.75" (14.5 cm) and depth does not exceed 9" (22.5 cm). Short pages are unsightly and waste space; try to “fill” the imaginary box on each page. Leave at least 1" (3 cm) top and bottom margins.
