Multiple authors in latex bibliography

Post by pban92 »

I have this reference having three authors and the code goes as follows

Code: Select all

@article{Ota1981,
        author = {Terukazu Ota, Yoshihisa Asano and Jun-ichi Okawa},
        title = {Teattachment length and transition of the separated flow over blunt flat plates},
        journal = {Bulletin of the JSME},
        volume = {24},
        No = {192-7},
        year = {June 1981},
        pages = {941--947},
        } 
But when I compile it gives me like this...

----------------------------------
Yoshihisa Asano Terukazu Ota and Jun ichi Okawa.
Reattachment length and transition of the separated flow over blunt flat plates.
Bulletin of the JSME, 24: 941-947, June 1981.
---------------------------------------

There is NO comma between first two authors. :(

Any suggestion pls?

Many thanks!

You should separate the authors always with "and".

Code: Select all

author = {Terukazu Ota and Yoshihisa Asano and Jun-ichi Okawa},
The output depends on the chosen bibliography style.

Hi,

I confirm that Thorstens suggestion works, with your example I got a comma after the first author, using plain and unsrt style. Perhaps tell us the bibliography style you are using, it may behave differently.

I used the following codes and bibliography style.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[a4paper, 11pt, oneside]{Thesis}  
\graphicspath{{Figures/}}  
\usepackage[square, numbers, comma, sort & compress]{natbib}  
.
.
.
\label{Bibliography}
\lhead{\emph{Bibliography}}  
\bibliographystyle{unsrtnat}  
\bibliography{Bibliography}  
\end{document}  
Many thanks for the feedback :)

Make sure you re-run bibtex and latex to see if your change makes the necessary effect. If you only re-ren latex, nothing will happen. To be on the safe side, delete any *.bbl files, and these will be regenerated.
