For those who want to explore a self-finance study, a reasonable financial support will be considered by project funds to relieve living cost burden.
Nonlinear dynamics and its associated theory, methods and applications have been exciting and active research topics in the literature, and more and more results are reshaping our understanding of the world with series of promising technical innovation and fruitful engineering applications. This forum is to invite several renown scholars in the area to present new advances in the related areas, to promote in-depth academic exchange from different research groups, and to stimulate new R&D ideas and much more productive collaboration internationally.
The forum will be held on 23 Oct 2022, and co-organized by Laboratory of Nonlinear Dynamics, Vibration, & Control, Department of Mechanical Engineering, City University of Hong Kong, and Shanghai Institute of Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Shanghai University. All keynote speakers are active scholars in the area. The forum will be conducted via Tencent Meeting (or VooV meeting) through the following link (Click the link to join the meeting or to add it to your meeting list):

The International Conference on Applied Nonlinear Dynamics, Vibration and Control (ICANDVC-2021) was initiated by the Nonlinear Dynamics, Vibration and Control Laboratory last year and successfully held in Zhuhai Charming Holiday Hotel during 23-25 Aug 2021, co-organized with colleagues from Shanghai University and Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics. The conference name abbreviation ICANDVC implies “I See AND We See” which is in line with its objective, that is, to promote active academic exchange among peers with our most recently developed results. Through exchange and collaboration, we are striving for advancing the interdisciplinary R&D in applied nonlinear dynamics, applied vibration analysis and design, and applied control theory and methods across the globe. This is also the very core R&D activity of the research group – Nonlinear Dynamics, Vibration and Control led by Prof Jing Xingjian.
Amid the pandemic period, we however received some 200 paper submissions and over 150 registrations for the conference. Among the submissions, 88 papers were selected to publish in a Springer proceedings book “Advances in Applied Nonlinear Dynamics, Vibration and Control-2021” which was edited by Prof Jing and the other Co-chairs from Shanghai University and Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics. Moreover, there will be a related special issue "Next generation vibration control exploiting nonlinearities" to be published in MSSP (IF6.823) in 2022. We had 10 invited sessions and 12 in-parallel sessions at the conference. There were 3 online and 3 onsite plenary speeches and 9 session keynotes covering all three main themes in nonlinear dynamics, vibration and control. Besides the on-site participants, we had more than 150 attendees from the Chinese mainland, Australia, the United Kingdom, Hongkong and other places via our synchronized online platform.
As a conclusion of the conference, we had 12 best presentation paper awards based on onsite marking by Session Chairs from 12 parallel sessions, 7 best paper awards and several outstanding paper awards for recognizing the great efforts and engagements of the conference attendees.
