Abstract

The paper is devoted to the 120th anniversary of the birth of Petro Mefodiyovych Vasylenko, an outstanding scientist in the field of Agroengineering Science, a leader of Agricultural Mechanics, Academician of VASHNIL, Academician of NAASU, Academician of RAAS, Corresponding Member of NANU, Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor,a laureate of the highest award in the field of Mechanization and Electrification - the Gold Medal named after Academician V.P. Goriachkin. This study highlights the contribution of Academician P.M. Vasylenko to the formation and development of the scientific discipline “Agricultural Mechanics”, as a technical science which develops in close connection with the needs of agricultural production and studies the mechanics of agricultural environments and materials, technological processes and operations, machines and mechanisms, machine units, flow lines and machine systems, dynamics of the human-machine system in agriculture, as well as technological processes based on the use of non-mechanical (thermal, electrical and other) types of energy and develops methods of engineering calculation and design for mechanization and automation in agriculture. About 70 years of prolific scientific and pedagogical activity of Academician P.M. Vasylenko related to the department of Agricultural Machinery. The main directions of activity of Scientific School of Academician P.M. Vasylenko and modern directions of development of new technological systems and machinery on the implementation of which scientists of the department successfully work, which are named after Academician P.M. Vasylenko. The paper also contains the main results of scientific, technical and innovative activities of the department of Agricultural Machinery and Systems Engineering named after P.M. Vasylenko in recent years of its work.
