Scientific and Research work

The scientific work includes two research areas: "Mechanics of Discrete Media" and "Mechanics of Continuum Media".

The research in the area of "Mechanics of Discrete Media" proceeds in a common laboratory of the Department "Theoretical Mechanics" and Institute of Problems of Mechanical Engineering Russian Academy of Science. Scientists of the "Discrete Models of Mechanics" laboratory work with different fundamental modern problems of mechanics: formulation of fundamental laws of mechanics discrete media, development of laws interparticle interactions, defining properties of discrete media at different scale levels, establishing the relationship between parameters and properties of discrete media. Analytical and computer methods allow to describe thermomechanical properties of crystallines, amorphous and nanostructured materials and shock wave processes in solids; dynamics of granular media; destruction and structural phase transitions, chemical processes; astrophysical processes; sociological processes; biological evolutionary processes, etc.

The research in the direction of "Mechanics of Continuum Media" is connected with a construction of new models of continuum media for a description of various physical processes and phenomenons. Analytical and computer models by the department staff describe a thermal conductivity, internal friction, electromagnetic phenomena, interaction of electromagnetic fields with matter, phase transformations, chemical reactions, destruction, deformation of thin-walled structures and nano-objects. In particular, researches describe new models of particles with a complex structure and internal degrees of freedom; as well as thermomechanical processes based on models of thermal conductivity and thermoelasticity hyperbolic; develop fundamentals and methods of experimental mechanics of thins, model building solid-state transitions and transitions from liquid to gas; describe of the influence of the form of the stress- strain state and material parameters on the kinetics of formation of a new phase, the develop of interfaces and fronts of chemical reactions in deformable materials.

Also the Department conducts applied investigations for leading russian research organizations, for example, ensuring the reliability of nuclear power plants; inertial navigation and sports biomechanics, modeling of oil and gas production, modeling of coke formation in the path of liquid rocket engines, thermal, electrical and strength analysis of aluminum electrolytic cells, development of methodologies for calculating thin-walled structures, dynamics of rapidly systems, high-speed shooting of phenomena and processes, etc.
