In order to cover the broadest range of high-level technical contributions from all over the world, the Scientific Programme is structured into 14 Theme Areas (T), that include several Structured Sessions and Regular Sessions.
| Theme Area T01 | Acoustical and vibration measurement and instrumentation |
| This theme area covers all aspects related to the measurement of sound and vibration. It includes sessions concerning traditional measurement instruments, but also proposals concerning new measurement concepts: new transducers, new mathematical algorithms, new acoustical parameters, or new applications of traditional technologies for multimedia and virtual reality. | ||||||||||||

| Theme Area T08 | Materials for noise and vibration control |
| Materials come in a variety of forms to provide sound absorption, isolation and vibration damping. In the last decades, the use and variety of available materials has increased greatly. Recent advances in material science, manufacturing processes, chemistry, and nanotechnologies are producing significant improvements in the design, production, and performance of specialized materials and metamaterials. Papers related (but not limited) to advances, development, analysis and/or optimization of materials or metamaterials that have been produced for the specific purpose of providing high values of sound absorption, vibration damping, and vibration and/or noise isolation are welcome within this Subject Area. The papers can be related to fundamental research, and/or applications, related to design, modelling, testing, and/or manufacturing of noise and vibration control materials or metamaterials. Due to the importance of the subject, this subject area will also welcome studies on environmentally friendly materials that are made of recycled products and/or through less contaminating processes. | ||||||||

| Theme Area T14 | Road and railway noise and vibration |
| The theme area on road and rail transportation noise and vibration covers the broad issue of generation and propagation of sound and ground borne vibration from road and rail transport. Structured sessions will be dedicated partly to the urban environment, with rail bound transport and road transport. In addition, novel design and control method for sound effect inside vehicles, will be highlighted. Rail induced vibration has gained more attention in recent years and structured sessions will be organized for this topic. Recent developments such as the revision of EU type approval standards and the gradual increase of electric and hybrid vehicles will be treated. Sound effect analysis and design inside vehicles cabin environment, for electric and autonomous vehicles will also be specially discussed. | ||||||||
