The mini-symposium (MS) aims to collect emerging topics in the field of multibody systems vibrations. Attention is paid to current and well-established issues for robotics and automotive. To these are added emerging fields concerning compliant mechanisms and their use in micro and nano systems, deployable systems for applications in the aerospace field, as well as the use of new materials for vibration control.

The main topics include:

  • The study of vibrations in complex robotic systems
  • Vibration analysis for powertrain systems
  • The study of vibrations in new materials
  • Vibration analysis of compliant mechanisms
  • Vibration analysis in deployable mechanisms
  • The vibrations of MEMS and NEMS systems
  • New methods for the study of flexible multibody systems
