You have to give some parameters to the figure environment as shown in the code below.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[10pt,a4paper]{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage[font=small,labelfont=bf]{caption}
\usepackage[centering,includeheadfoot,margin=2cm]{geometry}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage[center]{titlesec}
\usepackage{txfonts}
\usepackage{blindtext}

\begin{document}
  \section*{Literature Review}
    \blindtext
    \begin{figure}[!ht]
      \centering
%      \includegraphics[scale=.35]{1993Roshko}
      \rule{4cm}{3cm}
      \caption{Here is my caption.}\label{fig:1993roshko}
    \end{figure}
    \blindtext
%  \bibliographystyle{plain}
%  \bibliography{mybibliography}
\end{document}
