tensions, dynamic loads, heat exchange, and flow of two-phase media. Some 
applied research has been done on calculation of tensions in railroad rails 
and stresses in pipelines during seismic action.

Description: 
This institute, one of the important metallurgical groups in the 
U.S.S.R., has done experimental studies on the theory and practice of 
oxidation of sulfides and sulfide ores, including the development of the 
autocatalytic theory of reducing metals from oxides and sulfides and study 
of the effect of dynamic conditions on these processes. They have also 
engaged in research on the problems of copper and nickel metallurgy and the 
electrometallurgy of aluminum and magnesium. 
While examining the thermodynamics of pyrometallurgical processes, 
they included studies on heat-exchange processes in blast furnaces. Their
