This volume presents the proceedings of the Asia-Pacific Vibration Conference (APVC) 2019, Vibration Engineering for a Sustainable Future, emphasizing work devoted to numerical simulation and modelling. The APVC is one of the larger conferences held biannually with the intention to foster scientific and technical research collaboration among Asia-Pacific countries. The APVC provides a forum for researchers, practitioners, and students from, but not limited to, areas around the Asia-Pacific countries in a collegial and stimulating environment to present, discuss and disseminate recent advances and new findings on all aspects of vibration and noise, their control and utilization. All aspects of vibration, acoustics, vibration and noise control, vibration utilization, fault diagnosis and monitoring are appropriate for the conference, with the focus this year on the vibration aspects in dynamics and noise & vibration. This 18th edition of the APVC was held in November 2019in Sydney, Australia. The previous seventeen conferences have been held in Japan (85, 93, 07), Korea (87, 97, 13), China (89, 01, 11, 17), Australia (91, 03), Malaysia (95, 05), Singapore (99), New Zealand (09) and Vietnam (15).
