Preface
The Proceedings of the XV-th International Conference “Acoustics and Vibration
of Mechanical Structures”—AVMS-2019 contains selected papers contributed to
the Conference held during May 30–31, 2019 in Timişoara (Romania).
This book is organized on five chapters covering a broad range of topics related
to acoustics and vibration problems, such as:
• Noise and vibration control;
• Noise and vibration generation and propagation;
• Effects of noise and vibration;
• Condition monitoring and vibration testing;
• Nonlinear acoustics and vibration;
• Analytical, numerical and experimental techniques for noise and vibration;
• Modeling, prediction and simulations of noise and vibration;
• Environmental and occupational noise and vibration;
• Noise and vibration attenuators;
• Biomechanics and bioacoustics.
There are presented some analytical, numerical and experimental techniques
applicable to analyze linear and nonlinear noise and vibration problems.
Each paper went through a rigorous review process performed by the members
of the International Scientific Committee and specialized external reviewers, and
the accepted papers are reported in this volume.
We would like to express our sincere appreciation to keynote speakers and all
contributors of the presented papers for sharing their knowledge and experiences
with all the participants. We are also expressing our sincere thanks to the members
of the International Scientific Committee for spending their valuable time to review
the papers and also to the members of the Organizing Committee for ensuring the
success of this Conference which would not have been possible without their efforts.
Finally, special thanks are given to Springer for producing this volume.
