 Institute of Energetics from 1935 to 1946. In 1946 he was made 

 Chief of the Laboratory of Strength of Materials of the Institute 

 of Mechanics of the U.S.S.R. Academy of Sciences. Rabotnov 

 became professor at Moscow University in 1947. Since 1951 

 he has been a member of the Communist Party of the Soviet 

 Union. In 1953 he was elected Corresponding Member of the 

 U.S.S.R. Academy of Sciences and in 1958, Academician. 



Rabotnov' s investigations are in the theory of envelopes, the 

 theory of creep, and the theory of plasticity. 



In April 1958, Rabotnov visited the United States to attend 

 the Mechanics Organization.
