Ключевые работы харьковчан в области управления механическими системами

Abstract

Рассмотрена эволюция ключевых научных достижений Харьковских ученых и их воспитанников в XIX–XXI вв. в области управления механическими системами: от паровых машин до уникальных космических аппаратов. Показано, как созданный учеными научный потенциал позволил Харькову стать ведущим центром создания систем управления для важнейших объектов ракетостроения и космонавтики; наукоемкой и высокотехнологичной продукции оборонного и гражданского назначения, подготовки специалистов.The paper researches the dynamic process of establishment and development scientific-pedagogical activity of professors of mechanics of Kharkov in the 19–21 centuries. The origination of the Ukrainian technical science in the field of theory of control systems is connected with the Kharkov. It discovered and explored the main scientific trends of evolution of establishing optimal control of moving objects and technological processes. Main phases of formation and development of research and design school of Kharkov, its earlier spacecraft related works, subsequent work in the present-day period and implications for the spacecraft industry in Ukraine are shown. Names of persons are referred to, which were associated with the Kharkov school or left it. The Kharkov oldest, rocket and space enterprises «Kommunar» and «Khartron» are the largest, producer’s control systems for ballistic rockets and spaceships. Additionally to specific space products (launchers, satellites, space components, etc.) scientists оf Kharkov also created the number of «common» products for the needs of machinery, power production, etc.
