Next International Conference on Engineering Vibration, as the previous very successful event in this series held in Ljubljana, aims to exchange the knowledge and stimulate development in the world engineering vibration community. The topics of the conference include Structural Dynamics , Wave Propagation, Fluid-Structure Interactions , Dynamics of Rotating Systems, Structural Health Monitoring , Vibration Control and Isolation, Experimental Techniques, Energy harvesting and other vibration themes. In addition, we will have a dozen of mini symposia focused on the specific problems in engineering vibration. We will be delighted to receive your contribution to the conference. We plan a harmonious mixture of plenary, keynote, contributed and poster presentations. Selected papers will be invited to special issues of top peer review journals, which will be published after the conference. We look forward to hear from you and welcome you to Sofia!
