The International Conference on Modern Practice in Stress and Vibration Analysis (MPSVA 2022) is organised by the Institute of Physics (IOP) Applied Mechanics Group (AMG). The conference is well-established for the presentation of research findings in stress analysis and vibration dynamics with the intention of providing directed focus on the state-of-the-art in theoretical and experimental methodology. The aim of the conference is to bring together physicists, mathematicians, materials scientists and engineers from academia and industry, and to provide a platform for the presentation of creative and novel research findings facilitating an interchange of ideas and providing guidance for future research direction.
