Hello,
I’m experiencing some problems with author name abbreviations and citation formatting in a specific citation jstyle in JabRef, and I would like to seek the community’s help in resolving them.
Problem 1 - Author Name Abbreviations:
I’m working with references that have authors’ names with particles like “de” and “da,” such as “Ignacio, Luís Henrique da Silva.” However, when I generate citations, JabRef is abbreviating these particles, resulting in incorrect citations. I’d like to know how I can configure JabRef not to abbreviate authors’ names with these particles.
Ignacio, L.H. d.S., Santos, P.E. d.A., Duarte, C.A.R., 2019. An experimental assessment of *Eucalyptus* urosemente energy potential for biomass production in Brazil, energia or energética. Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews 103, 361-369.
Problem 2 - Citation Formatting:
I’m using a specific citation style that requires a particular citation format, as in the following example:
(IBÁ, 2023) is cited in the text as (Indústria Brasileira de Árvores, 2023) and (EPE, 2023) is cited as (Empresa de Pesquisa Energética, 2023) inside text.
When I generate the reference list, JabRef is incorrectly formatting the entries, too, adding unwanted information like “IBÁ, I.B. d.Á., 2023” and omitting important details like the full title of the publication. I’d like to know how I can properly configure JabRef to achieve the desired citation format.
EPE, E. d.P.E., 2023. Matriz Energética e Elétrica, energia or energética. Empresa de Pesquisa Energética , .
IBÁ, I.B. d.Á., 2023. Relatório Anual 2022. IBÁ, Brasilía, DF.
Here are the BibTeX entries I’m using:
@Article{Ignacio2019,
author = {Ignacio, Luís Henrique da Silva and Santos, Pedro Eduardo de Almeida and Duarte, Carlos Antonio Ribeiro},
journal = {Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews},
title = {An experimental assessment of \emph{Eucalyptus} urosemente energy potential for biomass production in Brazil, energia or energética},

}
@Article{EPE2023,

urldate = {2023-09-10},
timestamp = {2023-09-10},
}
Here is my jstyle:

I appreciate your assistance and guidance in resolving these abbreviation and citation formatting issues. Any tips or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
