127 GORINOV 



Gorbachev has worked in the exploitation of systems of thick, 

 steeply dipping beds and movable shoring. He developed a self- 

 propelled machine "Kuzbas" which utilizes water. 



As of 1961, Gorbachev was a Vice-President of the Siberian 

 Branch U.S.S.R. Academy of Sciences.

GORINOV, ALEKSANDR VASIL'EVICH (Railway Engineer) 



A. V. Gorinov was born August 4, 1902. After graduating 

 from the Moscow Institute of Communication Engineers, he 

 worked in a series of expeditions for surveying new railroads 

 (Chardzhou-Kungrad, Ulan-Ude-Naushki, Ural'sk-Iletsk). He 

 was chief- construction engineer for the Mo scow -Donbass Rail- 

 road. He taught at Leningrad Institute of Railroad Engineers in 

 1931-1946, and in 1937 became professor. He taught also at 

 the Military-Transport Academy of the Soviet Army from 1932 

 to 1938. In 1941 he became professor at Moscow Institute of 

 Railroad Engineers. He also worked in a number of scientific 

 research organizations. Gorinov has been a member of the 

 Communist Party of the Soviet Union since 1920. In 1939 he 

 was elected a Corresponding Member of the U.S.S.R. Academy 

 of Sciences. 



The main work of Gorinov is in the complex design of rail- 

 roads, the theory of inertia calculations and the reserve utiliz- 

 ation of a train's kinetic energy, the improvement of transpor- 

 tation with gradually increasing railroad power, and the 

 scientific basis for classifying railroads.
