The Seventh International Conference on Vibration Problems Icovp 2005: 05-09 September 2005, Istanbul, Turkey (Hardcover, 2007)

The following broad fields have been chosen by the International Scientific Committeeto be of special importance for the ICOVP-2005: TOPIC 1. Mathematical models of vibration problems in continuum mechanics TOPIC 2. Vibration problems in non-classical continuum models and wave mechanics TOPIC 3. Vibrations due to solid / liquid phase interaction TOPIC 4. Vibration problems in structural dynamics, damage mechanics and composite materials TOPIC 5. Analysis of the linear / non-linear and deterministic / stochastic vibrations phenomena TOPIC 6. Vibrations of transport systems TOPIC 7. Computational methods in vibration problems and wave mechanics TOPIC 8. Vibration problems in earthquake engineering TOPIC 9. Vibration of granular materials TOPIC 10. Active vibration control and vibration control in space structure TOPIC 11. Vibration problems associated with nuclear power reactors Other topics concerned with vibration problems, in general, were open as well, but it was understood that the bulk of presentations were within the above fields. All of the lecturers were carefully "nominated" by the International Scientific Committee, so as to illustrate the newest trends, ideas and the results. Altogether there were 81 active participants from 11 different countries, who presented 13 "general lectures (GL)" 1 Special Talk, and 59 "research communications (RC)", of which 49 were oral presentations and 10 were posters.
