[Tex/LaTex] Elsevier: reference format starting with citation, authors, year.. latex

bibliographiescitingcross-referencing

I am having problem changing the format of the references to match the ones of the journal I am submitting to. The journal provides a series of styles but none of them matches what they want.

In the text they would like to have citation (Name, Year) as in:

Then in the references they would like them in alphabetical order starting with the same way you cited it in the text, then authors year etc..

Has anybody ideas on how to make it?

As of now I use:

\documentclass[review]{elsarticle}

\usepackage{lineno,hyperref}
\modulolinenumbers[5]

\journal{Journal of \LaTeX\ Templates}

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
%% Elsevier bibliography styles
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
%% To change the style, put a % in front of the second line of the current style and
%% remove the % from the second line of the style you would like to use.

and I cite using:

The culprit here is the combination of author-year style and bst file model1a-num-names.bst, which is usually used with numbered labels ...

But there is the following workaround:

%% Numbered without titles % <==========================================
\bibliographystyle{model1a-num-names}\biboptions{authoryear} % <========

So with the following changed mwe

abstract = {Control of the global epidemic tuberculosis is severely hampered by the emergence of drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains. Molecular methods offer a more rapid means of characterizing resistant strains than phenotypic drug susceptibility testing. We have developed a molecular method for detection of rifampicin-resistant M. tuberculosis based on padlock probes and magnetic nanobeads. Padlock probes were designed to target the most common mutations associated with rifampicin resistance in M. tuberculosis, i.e. at codons 516, 526 and 531 in the gene rpoB. For detection of the wild type sequence at all three codons simultaneously, a padlock probe and two gap-fill oligonucleotides were used in a novel assay configuration, requiring three ligation events for circularization. The assay also includes a probe for identification of the M. tuberculosis complex. Circularized probes were amplified by rolling circle amplification. Amplification products were coupled to oligonucleotide-conjugated magnetic nanobeads and detected by measuring the frequency-dependent magnetic response of the beads using a portable AC susceptometer.},

[Tex/LaTex] Bibliography style (vancouver)

Based on our discussion in the comments, you created a new .bst file using the custom-bib package. This .bst file then needs to be modified to be used with the jabbrv package.

It seems that the .bib files created by custom-bib package are a bit more sophisticated than the basic .bst files assumed by the package, and the modification suggested in the package web site doesn't work. Thanks to some discussion in chat with Joseph Wright, here's a modified function that works:

FUNCTION {format.journal}
{journal duplicate$ empty$
  'pop$
  {
    "\JournalTitle{" swap$ * "}" *
    emphasize
    output
  }
if$
}

This function is added to the .bst file and the following line in the {article} function of the .bst file

journal "journal" output.check

is changed to

format.journal "journal" output.check

Name the new .bst file jabbrv_thesis. I've put a copy here:

Modified .bst file

Now you can use the jabbrv package to do the abbreviations. To do this you use:

\usepackage[warnundef]{jabbrv}
\bibliographystyle{jabbrv_thesis}

If there are particular journal names that you don't want abbreviated (e.g. Nature) then you need to edit the jabbrv-ltwa-en.ldf file (located in the jabbrv folder) and comment out the \DefineJournalAbbreviation lines for those names. If there words that aren't abbreviated, but should be, (these will show up in the warnings) then you need to add lines like the following to your document.

\DefineJournalAbbreviation{<full name>}{<abbreviation>} % no final '.'

[Tex/LaTex] Bib file, how to change the position of the year field in the references

If I understand your bibliography formatting requirements correctl6, the elsarticle-harv bibliography style would be a good starting point. You'll need to make just three modifications. I suggest you proceed as follows.

Locate the file elsarticle-harv.bst in your TeX distribution. Make a copy of this file and call the copy, say, elsarticle-harv-mod.bst. (Do not modify an original file of the TeX distribution directly.)
Open the file elsarticle-harv-mod.bst in a text editor; the editor you use for your tex files will do fine.
In the bst file, locate the function format.names. (It starts on line 377 in my copy of the file. In this function, locate the following line:
```
       "{vv~}{ll}{, jj}{, f.}" format.name$
```
Change it to
```
       "{f. }{vv~}{ll}{, jj}" format.name$
```
(After all, you've indicated that the abbreviated given names should be placed ahead of the surnames.)
Next, locate the function format.date; in all likelihood, it'll start on l. 617. In this function, locate the following line (the penultimate line of the function):
```
   ", " swap$ *
```
Change it to
```
   ", (" swap$ * ")" *
```
(This change will encase the year field in round parentheses.)
Finally, locate the function format.journal.pages, which should start on line 783. In this function, locate the line
```
           ", " *
```
Delete the comma, i.e., change the line to
```
           " " *
```
Save the file elsarticle-harv-mod.bst either in the directory where your main tex file is located or in a directory that's searched by your TeX distribution. If you choose the second option, you will likely need to update the filename database of your TeX distribution suitably.
In your main tex file, change the instruction \bibliographystyle{elsarticle-harv} to \bibliographystyle{elsarticle-harv-mod}, and do a full recompile cycle: LaTeX, BibTeX, and LaTeX twice more.

Happy BibTeXing!
