Introduction

Karadeniz Fen Bilimleri Dergisi (KFBD) is a peer-reviewed scientific journal that publishes high-quality original research articles in the fields of natural sciences, engineering, mathematics, and applied sciences. The primary aim of the journal is to contribute to scientific knowledge, promote international academic collaboration, and disseminate research freely through an open-access policy.

The page structure of the paper should be A4 size (210x297mm) and all margins should be 2 cm. Both Turkish and English titles should be appropriate for the topic of the paper, should describe the purpose of the paper and its conclusion and should be short and simple. The title of the paper should be in bold, with initials large and centered and 14 pt Times New Roman font. The Turkish title in the English papers should be given before the Turkish abstract. Author names are written side by side under the heading, without abbreviation (surnames in capital letters). Abbreviations should not be used in addresses. Numerical overhead indices should be used for authors with different addresses. Names of the authors should be Times New Roman 12 pt. and addresses should be Times New Roman 10 pt and flat.
