properties, local raw materials, and manufacturing processes. Research 
has been conducted on a number of materials, including highly refractory 
oxides, kaolin, chamotte, and periclase. Sintering techniques, effects of 
various additions, and the interaction of refractory materials with metals 
have been studied. The Institute publishes a Trudy.

Description: 
This institute supervises over 35 seismic stations in Siberia and 
the Far East. It is a member of the Seismic Commission of the Siberian 
Branch of the U.S.S.R. Academy of Sciences. In 1959, six of the Institute's 
seismic stations were established along the north and east shores of Lake 
Baykal to study distant earthquakes and obtain data on the internal structure 
of the earth. In 1962, the Institute developed a wavemeter to make approxi- 
mate measurements of the energy of the aftershock of earthquakes.
