The 2018 International Conference on Vibration, Sound and System Dynamics (ICVSSD 2018) seeks to bring together researchers in the area of vibration, sound and system dynamics and to share their latest findings in the area. The theme of this conference is "Translational Research in Knowledge Driven Economy" where we encourage presenters to highlight their research work that can lead to improved competitiveness and also well being of the industry and society. This meant that the research work will have to in the end address the issue of the people - safety, economy and the environment, which are the main pillars of knowledge economy.

The conference also seek to strengthen the tie between industry and universities and for that purpose, two keynote speakers from industry will be invited - as of now we are planning to invite one speaker each from Motorola and Dyson to enlighten the participants on the expectation and technology direction of industries. There is now more than ever the demand on the scientific community to demonstrate the link between the research investment made by the society and the impact of the research outcome of the society and we hope that this conference can be one of the avenue to demonstrate this.

It is the intention of this conference to encourage young researchers to present their work in front of technically qualified audience. With that in mind, we have decided that participant presenting their work will only be charged RM 800 per person to attend and present their work. With this we expect the younger generation will be more attracted to do research in this area.  This year we have decided that all the papers selected and presented in the conference will be published in a Scopus-indexed proceeding which has forced us to increase the conference fees and also the venue is located in the Olive Tree Hotel in the beautiful island of Penang.

Thank you and “Terima kasih"
