Description: 
The University has approximately 5,700 students. Staff members are 
conducting research in a wide variety of subjects. 
In the area of chemistry, studies have been conducted on separating 
iron, titanium, and aluminum. The synthesis of a number of compounds, in- 
cluding quinoline derivates, amines, and complex esters, has been achieved. 
In metallurgy, research has been pursued on X-ray diffraction of 
steel after hydrogen saturation, magnetic-property determination, organic 
additions to steel and their effect on mechanical properties, effect of 
superheating on mechanical properties of steels, wire drawing, refining by 
roasting, and hydrogen absorption in steel and iron. 
In fluid mechanics, studies of convective flow have been conducted. 
Thermodynamic research has been conducted on thermal stability of solids 
and liquids and thermal convection in pipes and cylindrical cavities. Devel- 
opments in tensile and compression fatigue machines have been made. Sound 
absorption in solids and electrolytes and ultrasonic absorption in para- 
magnetic metals have been studied by the acoustics and metallurgy groups. 
The University has assisted in the Soviet space program in studying 
the placement of satellites in orbits and motion of rockets in space. The 
mathematics staff has pursued studies in the areas of infinite intervals, 
boundary-value problems, and Riemannian surfaces. 
A Uchenyye Zapiski is published by the University. It also operates 
a Natural Science Institute.
