Crossmark Policy

Crossmark is an initiative to provide a standard way for readers to locate the current version of a piece of content. By applying the Crossmark button, Engineering and Technology Journal is committing to maintaining the content it publishes, and to alerting readers to changes if and when they occur.

Clicking on the Crossmark button will tell you the current status of a document, and may also give you additional publication record information about the document.

Correction and retraction of articles
 
Modifications to a published article can be implemented under the approval of the journal's editor. The extent of these modifications will be determined by the editors, with minor corrections being directly applied to the initial article. In instances of significant corrections, the original article will remain unaltered, and the rectified version will be separately published. A linkage between the original and corrected versions will be established. A statement elucidating the rationale behind substantial alterations to the article will accompany the publication. If deemed necessary, article retractions will adhere to the guidelines outlined by COPE retraction guidelines.
