The Russian Metallurgy

[stanislasdz]

hi,

Most of books and best references in the metallurgy field come from either european (germany and french) or from USA and japan in the XX century.

The Russian metallurgy science has also was among the leader of the métallurgy revolution during the XX century but there are a few references on the russian metallurgy.

Why ?

Has anyone more informations or links about this subject.

Your comments are welcome.

Most of metallurgy I studied from Russian text books. India was once identified with the Soviet Bloc in the cold war era.

There was lots of exchange of technology,machinery and ideology too. Kuznetsov, Lakhtin, Gulyaev,. I think Mir Publishers were popular I cannot recall the names of others. Our government then used to encourage us students to read books from Russia or from East European countries. I had learnt Russian language briefly as it was then fashionable to speak the language.

Hi arunmaro,

Thanks for your answer .

1- In the industrie most of the codes refers to

Americain : ASTM, AMSE
German : DIN
and in third position AFNOR (France) or BNS( UK)

Th GHOST code is not present.

2- To be honnest i think that most of the alloys used in the russian military engines are not very well know.

3- Third things ; most of the metallurgis from USSR or the East european immigrate to the USA or the west europeans countries.

4- Arunmaro, yes The MIR HOUSE EDITION have print many books in the metallurgy, but are you agree with me that this books are close to the literature rather than the metallurgy.

For what it's worth, I have found that when researchers from the ex-East block presented papers at English language conferences they showed both good scholarship and original thinking. Sometimes, in corrosion and SCC, this was insightful because it didn't follow the academic orthodoxy that hurts Western scholarship in some of these areas of study. There is undoubtedly a lot we could learn if we could read this body of research.

Between 1950 and 1980 it was a lot of research investigations in physical chemistry in high temperature proceses and technology done by soviet scientists. They made a lot of basic studies in ironmaking and steelmaking.In Bulgaria we was studing metallurgy from the books of Bardin, Javoisky, Edneral,Yoffe and sa plenty of other scientists. They was perfect in Siemens-Martein technologies, Converter Technologies, CCM, Theory of slags, Deoxidising and refining processes.
