and deformation rates and reverse martensite transformation during heating 
have been investigated. Studies have also been conducted on the quality of 
oxygen-blown convertor steel, the effect of heat treatment on steel strength, 
and low=-nickel steels suitable for apparatus in contact with acids. Current- 
ly, the alloying of columbium-base alloys for increased oxidation resistance 
is being investigated.

Description: 
This is a relatively new institute. It was organized to investigate 
problems where radioengineering has become identified with other techno- 
logies, such as chemistry, medicine, and mining. In 1961, the Institute's 
staff numbered close to 100 scientists and auxiliary personnel. 
The Institute offers graduate training in theoretical radio 
engineering.
