</tr>
<tr>
<td>Row 1-1</td>
<td>Row 1-2</td>
<td>Row 1-3</td>

</table>

Heading 1	Heading 2	Heading 3	Heading 4	Heading 5
Row 1-1	Row 1-2	Row 1-3	Row 1-4	Row 1-5
Row 2-1	Row 2-2	Row 2-3	Row 2-4	Row 2-5
Row 3-1	Row 3-2	Row 3-3	Row 3-4	Row 3-5

Math / Equations

Usage: \(A_{sv} = (A_{sd} * Sn_w) - I_{vol}\)

Output:\[A_{sv} = (A_{sd} * Sn_w) - I_{vol}\]

Construct equations using LaTeX. More indepth instructions and example can be found here.

The following formatting rules will be applied to all equations:

• no equation numbers (e.g. do not indicate "Equation 1", "Equation 2", etc.
• the equation should be indented once (:) and written in 5 point font.
• The "where" term, which identifies the terms used in the equation, is regular font, left indented, with a space between it an the equation
• the terms under the "where" heading are 5 point font; the remaining text is regular font
• numbers and non-formula text (i.e. not equation terms) are not italicized
• equation terms under the "where" heading are indented once (:)
• no bold

It is recommended you use the Math function. However,if using the Math function you will need to overide the centering, adjust the font, and correct use of italics.
