Event details
The Institute of Sound and Vibration Research (ISVR) is pleased to announce that the Eleventh International Conference on Recent Advances in Structural Dynamics will be held at the University of Pisa, Italy, on 1-3 July 2013. The first conference of the series was held in 1980. This conference is devoted to theoretical, numerical and experimental developments in structural dynamics and their application to all types of structures and dynamical systems. The conference will reflect the state-of-the-art of structural dynamics and dynamical systems in science and engineering practice and is an opportunity to exchange scientific, technical and experimental ideas. There will be five keynote lectures and parallel technical sessions. All submitted papers will be peer reviewed
Submission of abstracts – deadline extended to October 15th
Objectives of the Conference
The Conference aims to bring together researchers and practising engineers from different branches of engineering to discuss recent advances in theoretical and experimental techniques for solving problems in structural dynamics and dynamical systems.
Who should attend
Research workers and engineers involved in any area of structural dynamics and dynamical systems.
