Acoustics and Vibration of Mechanical Structures-AVMS-2025: Proceedings of the 18th AVMS, Timisoara, Romania, May 30-31, 2025

by Nicolae Herisanu (Editor), Vasile Marinca (Editor)

Overview

This book compiles the proceedings of the 18th AVMS Conference, held in Timişoara, Romania, on May 30–31, 2025. The conference covered a wide range of topics in acoustics and vibration, including:

• Noise and vibration control
• Noise and vibration generation and propagation
• Effects of noise and vibration
• Condition monitoring and vibration testing
• Modelling, prediction, and simulation of noise and vibration
• Environmental and occupational noise and vibration
• Noise and vibration attenuators
• Biomechanics and bioacoustics

The book also explores analytical, numerical, and experimental techniques for addressing both linear and non-linear noise and vibration issues, with a particular focus on strongly non-linear problems. It highlights the latest trends and state-of-the-art developments in these fields.

This publication is designed for academics, researchers, professionals, and PhD students working in various domains related to the acoustics and vibration of mechanical structures.
