IOA conference to discuss source of noise and vibration problems
September 3rd 2007

Understanding the source of noise and vibration problems is critical to identifying effective solutions.

This year's Autumn Conference, organised by the Institute of Acoustics’ Noise and Vibration Engineering Group, will cover the broad area of problem solving in noise and vibration engineering, from diagnosis through to the resulting engineering solutions, especially those with a focus on new measurement methods and innovative ideas.

The Conference will take place at the Oxford Hotel, Oxford from Wednesday, 17 October to Thursday, 18 October. Papers will discuss the control of workplace noise, noise from industrial machines or domestic appliances and noise vibration and harshness in the automotive and transportation industry.

One of the highlights of the conference will be the presentation by Trevor Baylis OBE, the inventor of the wind-up radio, of the Institute's prestigious medal, the Young Persons' Award for Innovation in Acoustical Engineering. He will also give a presentation on protecting intellectual property. The award is sponsored by the IAC.

The conference wil be useful for engineers, designers and safety officers wishing to keep abreast of developments in measurement methods and solutions to practical noise and vibration problems.
