TRAPEZNIKOV^, VADIM ALEKSANDRQVICH (Scientist in 

 Automation and Electric-Machine Building) 



V. A. Trapeznikov was born November 28, 1905. After 

 graduating from the Moscow Technological Institute in 1928, he 

 worked until 1933 at the All- Union Electro-Technical Institute. 

 From 1930 to 1941, he taught at the Moscow Institute of Ener- 

 getics and in 1939 became a professor there. In 1941 Trapezni 

 kov began working at the Institute of Automation and Teleme- 

 chanics of the U.S.S.R. Academy of Sciences, and in 1951 was 

 made the Director. He has been a member of the Communist 

 Party of the Soviet Union since 1951. In 1953 he was elected a 

 Corresponding Member of the U.S.S.R. Academy of Sciences 

 and in 1960 an Academician. He was awarded a Stalin Prize in 

 1951. 



Trapeznikov proposed calculating transverse field electric 

 machines, methods and techniques of economic analysis, and 

 the construction of electrical machines and transformers. In 

 the area of automation, he investigated automatic control of 

 geometric sizes, construction of high-speed automatic devices 

 and the design of aggregate systems of automatic control and 

 regulation. Under his leadership methods were worked out for 

 modeling systems of automatic control and he designed elec- 

 tronic modeling units. 



As of 1961, Trapeznikov was Chairman of the National 

 Committee of the Soviet Union for Automatic Control.
