\u201cThis was the first time we have organized a conference on technical mechanics within the field of mechanical engineering. The event aimed to invigorate the University’s scientific activities while building and strengthening both domestic and international relationships among our staff, which could lead to joint research initiatives. We launched this programme with the intention of establishing a tradition, and for the first event, we specifically invited representatives of universities from the Budapest\u2013Vienna\u2013Bratislava triangle and its surrounding region,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0explained Dr M\u00e1t\u00e9 Antali, one of the organizers and an associate professor at the Department of Applied Mechanics of Sz\u00e9chenyi Istv\u00e1n University.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sz\u00e9chenyi Istv\u00e1n University’s first international mechanical conference received positive feedback from the participants.

In addition to several Hungarian universities, prestigious international institutions such as the Vienna University of Technology and the Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava participated in the two-day symposium in Gy\u0151r.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Participants attended approximately 25 presentations, covering topics such as mechanical issues arising in machine design and manufacturing, strength and dynamics calculations, simulations, and numerical methods. \u201cTechnical mechanics plays a crucial role in bridging theoretical and mathematical methods with practical applications. Among other things, this discipline examines the static load-bearing capacity of various machines and equipment, as well as their movements and vibrations. Therefore, technical mechanics is relevant not only to mechanical engineering but also to other<\/em> engineering fields: at the conference, experts from vehicle, civil, and architectural engineering also delivered presentations,\u201d<\/em> detailed Dr M\u00e1t\u00e9 Antali.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/alumni.sze.hu\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/image-25-1024x576.png\")
