Theoretical mechanics, fundamental to engineering, is crucial for technological advancement in areas like mechanical design, energy, and aerospace. Despite its broad application, challenges arise when addressing complex systems or interdisciplinary studies, where current models and methods may fall short. The purpose of this paper is to synthesise examples of applications of theoretical mechanics in various engineering fields and to demonstrate its key role in solving practical problems. At the same time, the article will also discuss the current problems and challenges encountered in the application of theoretical mechanics, including the consideration of complex environmental factors in practical engineering and the difficulties brought about by the intersection of multiple disciplines. In order to address these challenges, the article will suggest future developments in theoretical mechanics, such as the development of more efficient computational methods and the introduction of innovative experimental techniques. These recommendations are intended to promote the further development of theoretical mechanics and to foster its wider application and deeper disciplinary cross-fertilisation in the field of engineering.
