Virtual ISMA2020 & USD2020

We are excited to announce that the ISMA2020 Noise and Vibration Engineering Conference and the USD2020 Conference on Uncertainty in Structural Dynamics will be organized as a combined fully virtual event, to be held September 7-9, 2020. An in-person event is, in our opinion, too uncertain given the current COVID-19 pandemic.

We are fully committed to deliver a successful virtual conference in September. A strong technical programme and numerous interactive discussions form the basis of our traditional ISMA-USD in-person conference format. Hence, we will for sure at least include these essential elements in the virtual event. Furthermore, in good tradition, all publications will be published in the full ISMA-USD conference proceedings. Other conference elements, such as our technical exhibition are currently being studied, to see if we can also include them as cornerstone elements into the virtual event.

We are committed to set up a virtual event that gives you the opportunity to interact with your colleagues and that prevents you from being clustered to a computer for three days straight. The technical programme will be presented via recorded video presentations and published full conference proceedings. The videos and proceedings will be made available to the conference participants already the week before September 7^th . During the conference (September 7-9), a programme of interactive tele/videoconferencing discussions will be scheduled  where presenters and other participants are brought together with session chairmen to discuss the presentations, as well as important trends in the research field. More practical information for our speakers and participants will follow in due time.
