Welcome to the 28th Conference on Mechanical Vibration and Noise (VIB). This longstanding event brings together researchers from across the globe to share ideas and results on all aspects of Vibration and Noise Engineering. The VIB Conference is sponsored by the Technical Committee on Vibration and Sound and supported by the Technical Committee on Multibody Systems and Nonlinear Dynamics. The symposium on the Dynamics of MEMS and NEMS is co-sponsored with the International Conference on Micro- and Nanosystems (MNS). We encourage you to review the complete list of symposia below, submit a paper, and join us in Charlotte, North Carolina for what will undoubtedly be a rewarding event!
