Speaking to welcome the conference, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Le Hoai Duc - Vice President of the University of Transport and Communications - Chair of the Conference Organizing Committee thanked the delegates, experts and scientists for taking the time to attend the 16^th Conference on Mechanics - Dynamics.

According to Assoc. Prof. Dr. Le Hoai Duc, University of Transport and Communications, formerly known as the College of Public Works (established in 1902), was reopened under the revolutionary government on November 15, 1945. The university has the mission the mission in training, research, high quality technology transfer in line with global integration and social liability to boost the sustainable development of the transport sector and that of the country. The university has 2 campuses in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. Its training scale is 27,000 students. The University is offering 11 doctoral disciplines, 14 master disciplines and 31 undergraduate disciplines focusing on the groups of Mechanics - Dynamics, Electrical and Electronics, Civil Engineering, Construction Engineering, Construction Management, Environment and Traffic Safety, Information Technology, Economics and Transportation, Basic Sciences.

Along with the mission of education and training, developing scientific research is the university's top priority strategy with the goal of fundamentally and comprehensively innovating all aspects of operations to develop into an autonomous university, research-oriented; asserting its leading role in Vietnamese transport with reputation and quality of Asian standards.

The 16^th Science and Technology Conference on Mechanics - Dynamics was organized by the University of Transport and Communications, bringing together a large number of universities, academies, research institutes, industries, and a large number of scientists, researchers, experts in the field of Mechanics - Dynamics to participate in discussions with the following contents: Exchange of training results, scientific research and technology transfer, production and business in the mechanical and dynamic field; Promote cooperation between scientists from universities, research institutes, and business owners in the field of mechanics and dynamics.

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Le Hoai Duc - UTC Vice President , Chair of the Conference Organizing Committee delivered a welcome speech at the conference.

On the sidelines of the Conference, delegates visited an exhibition of new scientific and technological products in the field of mechanical engineering from companies and units that are alumni of the University and are also accompanying sponsors, including: HSB Investment Joint Stock Company; Dong Tam New Technology Investment and Development Joint Stock Company; 3D Master Co., Ltd; Vietnam Auto Solution Group Joint Stock Company; 911 Group Joint Stock Company; Hop Thanh Trading and Construction Joint Stock Company; Nam Phu Thai Refrigeration Industry Joint Stock Company.

After a period of preparation from receiving, reviewing, and editing, the Organizing Committee has received 121 scientific articles from scientists of the Mechanics - Dynamics Club, other organizations and businesses related to the field of mechanics and dynamics. All reports were independently peer-reviewed and 64 articles qualified for publication in the Special Issue of the Science Journal of Transportation.

Science Journal of Transportation joins the Southeast Asia Index database system ACI (Asian Citation Index) from October 2021. Since then, the Journal has always met the criteria set by the State Council of Professors, and has been awarded points for scientific works by 8 disciplinary/interdisciplinary Professor Councils, including: Transportation, Mechanics - Dynamics, Mechanics, Construction - Architecture, Irrigation, Metallurgy, Earth Sciences - Mining and Economics. Of which, the highest score is 1.25 points in the Council of Professors of Transportation. Besides, the Journal receives many citations from journals belonging to prestigious publishers such as Techno-Press, World Scientific, Wiley, Springer, Elsevier…

Under the direction of chairman Prof. Dr. Vu Duc Lap - Vice President of the Mechanics - Dynamics Club, the conference listened to typical scientific presentations selected from scientific departments including: Self-propelled technology and practical applications; Determine the maximum allowable wind speed when raising and lowering wind turbines; Research the influence of traction coefficient parameters on the energy consumption of electric vehicles; Design of the main clutch control hydraulic system on crawler vehicles; Determining the working life of the wheel axles of urban railway trains on the Cat Linh - Ha Dong route according to wear and tear on rolling surfaces and wheel edges during operation.
