When using the siam
bibliography style, if any two references contain the same author field, then the author field in the output is replaced with dashes (-----).
I can see by looking through other questions that this is also common behavior for several other bibliography styles, and there are examples of ways to fix this by editing (copies of) the offending .bst
files, for example: -
Is it normal for BibTeX to replace similar author names with "------"?
dash instead of repeated author name
I have never before worked with .bst files, and still relatively new to latex. I haven't been able to locate the function within siam.bst
that causes this default behavior.
I am committed to using the siam
bibliography style for a current piece of work which contains a large number of citations. I haven't been able to replicate the workarounds designed for fixing this problem with other styles.
Can someone suggest a modification to siam.bst
that would allow multiple entries in the bibliography with the same author?
biblatex
/biber
if you can, though. Then these things are relatively easy.
