In this paper, a one-dimensional mathematical model for investigating the vibrations of structures consisting of elastic and weakly curved rods is proposed. The three-dimensional structure is replaced by a limit graph, on each arc of which a system of three differential equations is written out. The differential equations describe the longitudinal and transverse vibrations of an elastic rod, taking into account the influence of longitudinal and transverse vibrations on each other. Describing conjugation conditions at joints of four or more rods is an important problem. This article assumes new conjugation conditions that guarantee the all-around decidability and symmetry of the resulting boundary value problems for systems of differential equations on a star graph. In addition, the paper proposes a physical interpretation of the conjugation conditions found. Thus, the work presents one more area of knowledge where symmetry phenomena occur. The symmetry here is manifested in the preservation of conjugation conditions when passing to the conjugate operator.
