The Institute of Sound and Vibration Research (ISVR) is pleased to announce that the Tenth International Conference on Recent Advances in Structural Dynamics will be held at Southampton University, United Kingdom, on 12-14 July 2010.  The nine previous conferences in the series were held in 1980, 1984, 1988, 1991, 1994, 1997, 2000, 2003 and 2006.

This conference is devoted to theoretical, numerical and experimental developments in structural dynamics and their application to all types of structures and dynamical systems. The conference will reflect the state-of-the-art of structural dynamics and dynamical systems in science and engineering practice and is an opportunity to exchange scientific, technical and experimental ideas. There will be five keynote lectures and parallel technical sessions.  All submitted papers will be peer reviewed.
