Department “Machanical Engineering and Technical Service of Machines” – MTSM established January 1, 2021 order of the rector of the Ukrainian State University of Railway transport №95 from 01.09.2020. By merging the department Building, Trackside and Handling Machine “ – BTHM and Department Descriptive Geometry and Computer Graphics “ – DGCG. Both departments have their own history of creation and development, which dates back to the founding of the University – at that time the Kharkiv Institute of Transport Engineers (KITE), which is why the formation of the MTSM department has many years, and its history is inseparable from the history of both departments – BTHM and DGCG .

History of creation and development of the department “Building, Trackside and Handling Machine “

History of the departmentThe Department of Building, Trackside and Handling Machine was established at the Mechanical Faculty of KITE in 1934. The first head of the department was Professor D. Tamarin. Until 1941, the department provided a training course “Mechanization of loading and unloading” and course design for lifting machines at the mechanical and operational faculties. During the war, the department was evacuated together with KIIT to Tashkent, from where it returned to Kharkiv in 1946. At this time, the department was part of the Faculty of Operations. Among the first teachers of the postwar years were such well-known specialists in mechanization of loading and unloading operations on railway transport as N. Geller and G. Kuybida.

History of the departmentFrom 1946 for 29 years the department was headed by a student of Professor D. Tamarin – Professor V. Stogov, who in 1950 defended his doctoral dissertation on single-bucket tractor loaders.

In 1964, the Ministry of Railways of the USSR instructed Professor V. Stogov to organize at the department branch research laboratory for mechanization of loading and unloading. Many new technologies, machines and devices were developed in this laboratory, which allowed the railways to obtain a significant economic effect due to the mechanization of transshipment works. The first head of the laboratory was Ph.D. (later Ph.D.) I. Kryvtsov, later for a long time – Ph.D. O. Zalata, and the scientific supervisor is Professor V. Stacks. Under the leadership of V. Stogov more than 30 candidate dissertations were defended, and two of his students, I. Kryvtsov and B. Gorsky, later defended his doctoral dissertation.

History of the departmentWith the departure of V. Stogov from 1974 to 1976 the position of head of the department was held by his student, Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor I. Kryvtsov, who accepted an invitation from ALIIT in 1976, the Almaty Institute of Transport Engineers, moved to ALIIT for two years as vice-rector for research, and later, for two years until 1982, as rector of ALIIT. During his work at ALIIT he prepared one doctor of technical sciences in the field of research of the scientific school of prof. V. Stogov.

After moving prof. I. Krivtsov to Alma-Ata the department was headed by a constellation of outstanding students of prof. V. Stogov, namely: Associate Professor E. Korenko (from 1977 to 1982), associate professor V. Khinevich (from 1982 to 1986), associate professor B. Stefanov (from 1986 to 1992), under whose leadership the department was further developed and carried out research in the field of increasing the level of mechanization of freight work on rail transport, improving the design of track machines and specialized tools for maintenance and repair of tracks.

In the 80’s, the department firmly took a leading place in the KITE and among related departments of the USSR in the number of inventions and economic efficiency of scientific developments. In total for the whole period of work the staff of the department received more than 120 copyright certificates for inventions, published 3 textbooks and 6 textbooks.

History of the departmentFrom 1992 to 2008 the department was headed by Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor Ye. Ventsel, who started a scientific school at the department on chemotology and improving the quality of fuels and lubricants. During these years, with the assistance of the leadership of the Academy and Ukrzaliznytsia, a branch chemical research laboratory was established at the department. With the creation of the laboratory at the department developed a scientific direction to increase the wear resistance of friction units of machines and improve the quality of lubricants. Under the guidance of Professor Ye. Ventsel 5 candidate dissertations were defended, 1 monograph and 3 textbooks were published, more than 5 patents for inventions were obtained.

In the period from 2008 to 2011 the department was headed by a student of Professor Ye. Ventsel Ph.D., Associate Professor A. Babenko, who continued the development of existing research areas of the department and industry research laboratories.

History of the departmentFrom 2003 to 2013, the department was staffed by Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor Ye. Lysikov. Working at the department, he created a scientific school, which to this day conducts research in the field of tribology, nanotechnology in transport and the influence of electromagnetic fields on the processes of friction and wear in machines. During this time, under his leadership, 9 PhD theses were prepared and defended, 2 monographs and 2 textbooks were published, 8 patents for inventions and utility models were obtained. Thanks to the work of Professor Ye. Lysikov significantly increased the staff potential of the department and the level of training of students of the department in the discipline “Construction Machinery”, the rapid development of the branch chemotological research laboratory.

With the arrival in 2011, Ph.D. Professor M. Remarchuk new scientific directions have been developed at the department, namely energy saving in hydraulic systems of machines and creation of new types of drives on the basis of power hydraulic cylinders. Under the leadership of prof. M. Remarchuk in 2019 the candidate’s dissertation on a specialty 133 – branch mechanical engineering was defended.

From 2011 to 2020 the department was headed by a student of Professor Ye. Lysikov. Ph.D., Professor S. Voronin. Under his leadership in early 2012, the department launched a research and training laboratory “Nanotechnology in Transport” and from the 2011/12 academic year taught a new discipline – “Fundamentals of Nanotechnology” for professionals and masters. In the period from 2012 to 2014, a stand for the study of the properties of liquid crystal additives in lubricants and a stand for the production of carbon nanoparticles – fullerenes and nanotubes – was created in the laboratory of nanotechnology. Under the leadership of prof. S. Voronin  branch chemical laboratory research laboratory in June 2014, for the first time in its existence, passed the state metrological certification. During this time, the department received 8 patents for inventions and utility models,
