At the same time, the anniversary of USC is, of course, just a tiny T mark on the very long distance covered by the shipwrights of our country on their way. The reminder of it is another commemorative date celebrated by the Russian shipbuilding in this year. 350 years ago the very foundation of our industry was laid – in 1667 the Tsar Aleksey Mikhailovich, father of Peter the Great, signed an ordinance about building a three-master frigate “Oryol” for the government money. It was the first Russian ship that received a personal name. Besides, many historians are convinced that it was on this ship that the Russian state tricoloured flag was raised for the first time. From this event, almost expunged from the memory, from the beginning of construction of great grandfather of the modern fleet, begins also this history of ours – the history of state shipbuilding. It is for this reason why, having consulted employees of the industry, as well as authoritative researchers of national history, we found it fit to put forward the initiative of establishing the professional holiday of shipwrights – Shipbuilder’s day. We believe it the most proper to link it with the day of issuance of the Tsar’s ordinance about keel-laying of frigate – June 29. Key materials of this number of our magazine are dedicated to the topic of origination of Russian shipbuilding. Generations of masters were building the national fleet – from “carpenters eager to work with ships” to our contemporaries, shipbuilding engineers and technicians. THIS ISSUE OF THE USC MAGAZINE Not just families, but dynasties always worked at the OPENS THE ANNIVERSARY YEAR: Russian shipyards, and at all times it was all, and still is, about the people here. The all-important topic of human resourcing IT WILL MARK THE TENTH ANNIVERSARY for shipbuilding is elucidated in the interview of Human Resources Director Eduard Bobritsky, speech of his colleague OF THE UNITED SHIPBUILDING from Sevastopol Shipyard and the Principal of world-famous “Korabelka” (State Marine Technical University) of St. Petersburg CORPORATION Gleb Turichin. Needless to say, it’s impossible to cover such a large-scale topic as development of shipbuilding industry on the pages of just one issue.

  • Babadzhanian, Hamazasp
    Babadzhanian, Hamazasp Born: February 18th, 1906 Died: November 1st, 1977 (Aged 71) Ethnicity: Armenian Field of Activity: Red Army Brief Biography Hamazasp Khachaturi Babadzhanian was a Russian military general who served during multiple wars for the Soviet Union, rising to prominence during the Great Patriotic War. He was born in 1906 into an impecunious Armenian family in Chardakhlu, Azerbaijan. He attended a secondary school in Tiflis in 1915 but due to familial financial difficulties was forced to return home and toil in the fields on his family’s plot of land, later working as a highway worker during 1923-24. Babadzhanian joined the Red Army in 1925 and later attended a Military School in Yerevan in 1926, graduating as an officer in 1929, as well as joining the Soviet Communist Party in 1928. He received various postings, mopping up armed gangs in the Caucasus region in 1930 and aided in liquidating the Kulak revolt. Babadzhanian moved around frequently, generally within the Transcaucasus and Baku regions, until 1939-1940, when he served in the Finno-Soviet war. He played a pivotal role in numerous battles in World War 2, participating in the battle of Smolensk, as well as contributing a fundamentally in Yelnya, where he overcame a far superior German force. For his efforts in recapturing Stanslav he received the title of Hero of the Soviet Union. He provided support in Poland, as well fighting in Berlin, contributing to the capture of the Reichstag. After the Great Patriotic War Babadzhanian would prove crucial in quelling the Hungarian Revolution in 1956, and some time after in 1975 became Chief Marshal of the Tank and Armoured Troops, a rank only he and one other attained.

  • Nikolay Luzin, His Students, Adversaries, and Defenders (Notes
    Nikolay Luzin, his students, adversaries, and defenders (notes on the history of Moscow mathematics, 1914-1936) Yury Neretin This is historical-mathematical and historical notes on Moscow mathematics 1914-1936. Nikolay Luzin was a central figure of that time. Pavel Alexandroff, Nina Bari, Alexandr Khinchin, Andrey Kolmogorov, Mikhail Lavrentiev, Lazar Lyusternik, Dmitry Menshov, Petr Novikov, Lev Sсhnirelman, Mikhail Suslin, and Pavel Urysohn were his students. We discuss the time of the great intellectual influence of Luzin (1915-1924), the time of decay of his school (1922-1930), a moment of his administrative power (1934-1936), and his fall in July 1936. But the thing which served as a source of Luzin’s inner drama turned out to be a source of his subsequent fame... Lazar Lyusternik [351] Il est temps que je m’arr ete: voici que je dis, ce que j’ai d´eclar´e, et avec raison, ˆetre inutile `adire. Henri Lebesgue, Preface to Luzin’s book, Leˇcons sur les ensembles analytiques et leurs applications, [288] Прошло сто лет и что ж осталось От сильных, гордых сих мужей, Столь полных волею страстей? Их поколенье миновалось Alexandr Pushkin ’Poltava’ There is a common idea that a life of Nikolay Luzin can be a topic of a Shakespeare drama. I am agree with this sentence but I am extremely far from an intention to realize this idea. The present text is an impassive historical-mathematical and historical investigation of Moscow mathematics of that time. On the other hand, this is more a story of its initiation and turning moments than a history of achievements.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Ti-f£$£ IP ^6^771 Abstract The Russian legitimation formula contains the arguments the Russian leadership advanced to promote its state-building project between 1991 and 2000. The period of investigation coincides with Yeltsin’s presidency. The focus is on how the legitimation rhetoric was adjusted both to changing circumstances over time and to three main audiences: the Russian domestic population, the Russian domestic elites and the international community. In order to analyse the contents of the legitimation formula a framework was developed which divided the different arguments used by the Russian leadership into six main categories (democratic, national, charismatic, eudaemonic, external and negative arguments). The material selected for analysis had to relate to basic features of statehood.

  • Russia's Akademik Lomonosov – the First Modern Floating Nuclear
    Russia’s Akademik Lomonosov – The First Modern Floating Nuclear Power Plant (FNPP) Peter Lobner, 15 May 2021 1. Introduction Designated Project 20870, construction of Akademik Lomonosov started on 15 April 2007, when the keel was laid at the Sevmash shipyard in Severodvinsk, which also is Russia’s premier submarine building shipyard. Originally, Akademik Lomonosov was expected to supply power to the Sevmash shipyard itself and the town of Severodvinsk, in Northwest Russia. Cutaway drawing showing the general arrangement of the Akademik Lomonosov. Source: Rosatom In August 2008, the hull of Akademik Lomonosov was transferred to the Baltic Shipyard in St. Petersburg, where a second “keel laying” was held in May 2009. Plans for deploying the FNPP were reconsidered, leading to the final selection of Pevek, a remote Arctic coastal city in Russia’s Far East. The FNPP was launched on 30 June 2010 and outfitting continued with the vessel secured dockside at the Baltic Shipyard. Two un-fueled OKBM Afrikantov KLT-40S modular pressurized water reactors (PWRs) were installed in October 2013. 1 After work on the vessel and reactor systems was completed in April 2018, Akademik Lomonosov was towed 4,000 km (2,485 miles) around Norway to Murmansk, where the reactors were fuelled and tested at Rosatomflot facilities, which also support their nuclear- powered icebreaker fleet. In June 2019, the Russian nuclear regulatory agency Rostekhnadzor issued a 10-year license to Rosenergoatom to operate Akademik Lomonosov until 2029. After successfully completing testing, Akademik Lomonosov departed Murmansk on 23 August 2019 and was towed 4,770 km (2,964 miles) along the Northern Sea Route, arriving at its final destination on 9 September 2019 at a new protected pier at Pevek, which is about 980 km (609 miles) west of the Bering Strait.

    Logistics and Transport BE 303 E Supply chain of the Shtokman field development project by Veronika Afanasyeva Spring 2009 Abstract Supply chains are always fairly complex, and each industry’s chain has its own quirks and characteristics. The strategic nature of the product makes the oil and gas supply chain distinct from other industries. The given work sets a task to investigate the supply chain in oil and gas on the example of the Shtokman gas and condensate field development project. It is quite a challenging mission if to take into consideration the size of the project and its unique character. The given research is conducted to develop and extend the supply chain theory in oil and gas industry. The research objectives lead to use the theory-oriented type of research with stress on theory testing. Under these circumstances, the single-case study method and semi- structured interviews as a primary source of data are chosen. To build the entire supply chain of the Shtokman project there is a need to describe it first. The history of the field exploration, selection of partners, engineering concept of the project are reflected in the empirical part. Additionally, the project’s description includes the transportation system and marketing strategy of natural gas and LNG distribution. Moreover, the environmental and political aspects of the project which are essential for oil and gas field development find its reflection in the practical part of the work. The analysis of the project with regard to the received from interviews data and other reliable sources of information helps to build the supply chain in the Shtokman project and put value on the supply chain integration and cooperation.

  • Western Sanctions Will Affect Russian Shipbuilding
    WESTERN SANCTIONS WILL AFFECT RUSSIAN SHIPBUILDING Western sanctions will not hamper construction of nuclear icebreakers, but can have negative consequences for other Russian civilian shipbuilding. Western sanctions could curb Russian Arctic oil Statoil, Rosneft delay Siberian drilling, while CEO Sechin added to international sanction list This week the U.S. and EU hardened its sanctions against Russia designed to punish its continuing backing of separatists in Eastern Ukraine. The sanctions include the EU banning any trade in arms and the US prohibiting transactions with Russia’s United Shipbuilding Corporation, which it classified as a defense company. According to the United Shipbuilding Corporation the sanctions will probably have no impact on state orders that already are under construction, but can seriously hamper future orders. The Baltic Shipyard outside St. Petersburg has orders to construct Russia’s three next, much-needed nuclear-powered icebreakers. The prototype was laid down in November 2013 and is planned to be ready for service in December 2017. The two next icebreakers should be ready for delivery in 2019 and 2020. “We don’t see any problems in the construction of the nuclear icebreakers, since no part of the equipment - down to the last bolt and screw – has anything to do with the U.S.” a spokesperson from United Shipbuilding Corporation says to Arctic Info. Others are not so optimistic about the future of civilian Russian shipbuilding after the last sanctions were imposed. Head of St. Petersburg’s Committee for Industrial Policy and Innovation Maksim Meyksin says to website Baltpp that the sanctions can have serious impacts on the large shipyards in the region.

Five names added from Two Seasons or the post-voyage report on crew status (Moller, 1821) are marked with asterisks. The lists do not give patro- nymics and do not identify any cooks. The statement that Nikita Il’in was of ‘officer rank’ (TS, 1: 9) may simply mean that he was a gentleman but not yet a commissioned officer.
