[Tex/LaTex] How to find the unsrt.bst file

bibtexnatbib

I am sorry to post this probably very basic question, but I am having a hard time locating my unsrt.bst file as I want to edit it. I have read through a lot of questions in here, but in all of them it seems implied how you find the unsrt.bst file. Sometimes it is written that it is placed in Library/textmf/bibtex/bst, but I can't find any of those folders.

From your last comment about the location for personal bst files I'm guessing you are using a Mac. Under TeX Live installed by MacTeX your personal tree's root is ~/Library/texmf and personal bst files should go into ~/Library/texmf/bibtex/bst or sub-folders of that folder. A couple of things you should know: ~/Library is the Library folder in your HOME folder; and, if you haven't done so already, YOU must create the set of nested folders texmf/bibtex/bst/... in ~/Library. To open ~/Library hold the Option key down while clicking on the Go menu in Finder; a new Library item, that opens ~/Library, will appear.

You only show part of your bibtex file, but by any chance do you have two entries such as:

@article{YP2013,
  author = {Tao Yang and Rong Pan},
...
@article{Yang1999,
  author = {Yang and ...},
...

In other words does the name sometimes appear with with and without the first name, or sometimes with the full name and sometimes with just the initial? Editing you .bib file to make sure the names are all abbreviated consistently sometimes helps with that.
