TheVibrationLab, School of Mechanical Engineering, Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) with the collaboration of Universiti Kuala Lumpur Malaysian Spanish Institute (UniKL MSI) and Tunku Abdul Rahman University College (TARC) are pleased to announce the 2017 International Conference on Vibration, Sound and System Dynamics (ICVSSD 2017) which be held at the School of Mechanical Engineering, USM on 2nd August 2017. The conference seeks to bring together researchers in the area of vibration, sound and system dynamics and other related areas to share their latest findings in the area. The theme of this conference is "Research for The New Sustainable Economy" to encourage presenters to highlight their research work that addresses the issues related to sustainable industry and economy.

Two students Tiew Yin Cheng and Ting Kin Choong from TheVibrationLab of the School of Mechanical Engineering, USM won the first prize of the National Instruments track. The prize consists of RM 5000 cash and also two units of NI MyRIO control prototyping unit.
At TheVibrationLab, we provide several short courses and seminars in our expertise areas, including:
1) Short course on the Experimental Modal Analysis
2) Short course on the Spectral Measurement/ Operational Deflection Shape
3) Short course on the Rubber Characterization
4) Short course on the Sound Measurement (Sound Intensity/ Mapping/ Absobtion/ Trasmission Loss)
5) Short course on the Experimental and Dynamic Modelling of the Structure
6) Short course on the Active Vibration Control (Experiment and Simulation)
All the courses usually will take about 2 - 3 days. You can request any of the listed courses at any time. We will provide the place, devices and also the food (breakfast, lunch and tea break).
You can refer to the links for previous short courses and consultancies that have been done by TheVibrationLab.
For the available research titles (M.Sc. and Ph.D.), you can contact each representative researchers in TheVibrationLab.
At TheVibrationLab, we provide various testing services in sound and vibration fields.
