February 25, 2015 a chief scientific worker of All-Russian scientific - research institute of aviation materials (VIAM) Nicolay Ivanovich Kolobnev took part in the seminar, dedicated to 100-th anniversary from a birthday of the famous soviet scientist in the field of metallurgy Vladimir Ivanovich Dobatkin.The event took place at the All-Russian institute of light alloys (JSC «VILS»).
In the course of the seminar Nicolay Kolobnev made a report «High-strength alloys of Al-Cu-Li system of higher fracture toughness».
FOR REFERENCE
Vladimir Ivanovich Dobatkin was born in September 18, 1915 in Betino village of Ryazanskaya province. A prominent soviet scientist in the field of metallurgy, a corresponding member of RAS, Doctor of Technical Sciences, professor.
Main works of V.I.Dobatkin are devoted to a continuous casting, physical metallurgy and heat treatment of light alloys. In particular, he ascertained a number of regularities of alloys crystallization ,discovered and described one of considerable hardening mechanisms of wrought semifinished products from aluminum and titanium alloys — structural (subgrain) hardening. V.I.Dobatkin is one of founders of a technology of vacuum arc melting of metals. Under his leadership for the first time in the USSR a manufacture of hollow profiles, thin-wall tubes and large forgings was mastered.
JSC «All-Russian institute of light alloys» (JSC «VILS») is one of the leading enterprises in the Russian Federation on development of new technologies and production of articles from special alloys.
