The first issue of the Journal of Structural Dynamics (JSD) was by invitation only. Now, the JSD is looking for original contributions, both theoretical and experimental, that provide new information on any aspect of structural dynamics. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

·       Active or passive vibration control
·       Additive manufacturing
·       Biomechanics
·       Modal analysis
·       Model reduction
·       Model validation
·       Next-generation materials including metamaterials
·       Nonlinear dynamics
·       Signal processing
·       Structural health monitoring and damage detection
·       System identification
·       Uncertainty quantification
·       Vibroacoustics
·       Wave propagation

Papers published in JSD should provide an important advance to the state of the art and be significant to the structural dynamics community. To this end, the authors are asked to prepare a Letter to the Editor, explaining the main innovation and scientific relevance of the paper. JSD aims to maintain a high standard of written English and the authors should ensure that the language is intelligible.

Before submission, prospective authors should carefully read the journal’s author guidelines. An electronic copy of the complete manuscript should be e-mailed to the Editor in Chief, arnaud.deraemaeker@ulb.be.
