Paton in.Kiyev and other in-~ stitutes are collaborating with research centers of member-countries of the Council for Mutual Economic Aid (SEV) in the development and industrial introduction of nondestruc- tive testing methods. NILIN is co- ordinating a SEV project. entitled "Development of Magnetic and Electro magnetic Methods", for example. Fields of specialization are said to differ from country to country. _ Bulgaria, for example, is specializing in magnetic-particle flaw detection equipment. for analyzing various types of cracks in the surfaces of metal products. No such flaw detectors are being produced in the USSR, ac- cording to Klyuyev. He relates that this type of organization of work permitted the implementation. of a program for the development of a monitoring and diagnostic instrument-— complex in the period. 1976-1980. This program included 11 major pro- jects.and more than 100 assignments. Asked about long-range tasks of international cooperation, Klyuyev stresses the importanee of developing . a&@ new generation of nondestructive- testing instruments capable of de- tecting product defects at early’ stages of the production process. They would be compact, high-speed,,. multipurpose instruments. with a wide range of measurements. * x x Title: GROMYKO COMMENTS ON STATUS OF ARMS CONTROL.

Ac- complishments. in this field are said to open up possibilities for the. pur- posefully directed synthesizing of many compounds, including polymers and semiconductors.. , Chemical-assembly technology is’ already being employed in a number of production facilities, Aleskovksiy reports. In one process, iron products are obtained through the reduction of. volatile ferric chloride on a special substrate. Similar processes employ-- ing volatile compounds may be used to synthesize semiconductor materials and materials consisting of. both metallic and nonmetallic compounds. Low-temperature chemical: welding is mentioned as another possible applica- tion of the method. Seamless joints can be obtained by the low-temperature method without. causing thermal stresses in the materials that are being welded, according to Aleskovskiy. & *e * Author: Mathematical Sciences, Professor at Moscow.

He says it. has been determined that the economir cally optimum capacity of such a sta- tion in geostationary orbit is between 5 and 10 million kilowatts. For a 5-million-kw station, the overail area of the solar collectors would have to be about 50 square kilometers. The panels would have to be film photo- cells made of either silicon or gailium (continued next coluy ADDroved or Kele Vanke, V., Doctor of Physical- proved BP ace 2001/03/07 : CIA- aie -00787R000500180024 a4 DB arsenide. The weight. of such a sta- tion would be between 50,000 and 100,000 tons. Rockets capable of. carrying payloads of 200 to 500 tons would be needed to.transport the materials. For the microwave trans~- mission of energy, the author says the transmission efficiency would be nearly 100 percent with a trans- mitting antenna one kilometer in diameter, and a ground receiving system between 7 and. 12 kilometers in. diameter. The transmitter would have to have a large number of micro- wave generators with capacities ranging from hundreds of watts to several tens of kilowatts. The author says the efficiency of reception and reconversion of microwave energy on Earth could be as high. as 90 percent, The microwave beam would be entirely safe for humans, with the. density of its energy flow being less than the intensity of solar radiation on a clear summer day. The author says: that foreign spe- eclalists have estimated that a proto- type of such a station. on a reduced scale could be deployed as early as 10 years from now, and the experience of its operation could make com— mercial orbiting solar power stations a veality in 20 to 30 years. The author. says it would have to be an international project. * k * Kulinich . Cinterviewer) \eenen inich,.s i Title: .

Extract: Polymer composite materials -- new man-made materials -- are moving more and more vigorously to the fore- front in technology. Their use as structural materials holds particular promise. Scientists of the USSR Academy of Sciences' Institute of Chemical Physics are pursuing major work on the study of composites' prop- erties and methods of obtaining them. "The rapid advancement of technol- ogy has confronted scientists and engineers with the extremely complex task of developing materials with fundamentally new properties," related Doctor of Chemical Sciences B. A. ‘Rozenberg. "Composites possess high strength and reliability, good rigidity and lightness, resistance to corrosion and other valuable qualities. They are polymers reinforced with glass, carbon, boron, organic and other fibers which, possessing the necessary strength, bear the main load in the material." Major work on the development of new composites is being pursued at the Institute of Chemical Physics under the direction of academician N. S. Yenikolopov, a Lenin Prize laureate. The manufacturing of composite mater- fals by the method of polymerization filling has acquired particularly large importance in recent years. However, the cost of products made of composites is still very high, owing to the costliness of their source ‘ materials -- polymer binding and rein- forcing fibers. However, these dif- ficulties will also be overcome even- tually.

The generator is -used to simulate high-altitutde temperature and humidity conditions which determine the density of cloud cover and affect the readings of meteorological instru- ments. Sensing devices are placed in the unit's working chamber. The sensors absorb vapor-~-and-air mixture “from a saturation chamber. Different pressures and temperatures are created in the chambers for the purpose of simulating the flight of a radiosonde through different layers of the atmo- sphere. B. P. Zaychikov, a senior science associate of the observatory, demonstrated the use of the chamber to simulate a very high altitude at which clouds form. The humidity generator reportedly has enabled scien- tists to determine a wide range of changes in humidity at any atmospheric temperature, and consequently to eval- uate the precision of relative-humidity calculations made with the aid of radiosonde sensors. The development of industrial humidity-generating units for weather forecasters and aviation meteorological services is planned in the near future, Leninskoye znamya, No. 240 (18460), * r * : Author: it Title: PROGRESS OF HOLOGRAPHY R&D IN OPHTHALMOLOGY REVIEWED Vladimova, I.

One of the problems he notes 4s the fallibility of reliance on ministries to undertake the anti- ‘pollution measures that are assigned to them. -For example, Izrael' explains, when individual ministries in a large city or industrial region implement anti-pollution measures, enterprises that are subordinate to other ministries may continue to pollute, and the average level of Apbidved For Rele column) Approved For Release 2001/03/07 : ClA-RDP96-09787R000500180023-6 ee pollution in the terr significantly reduced. a number of ministries that did not use up the capital allocated for environmental-protection measures in the last. 5-year pian period. They included the pulp and paper industry, farm machinery industry, chemical industry, and ferrous and nonferrous metallurgy. in view of this, Izrael' says there must be a combination of industry and territorial principles of planning environmental-protection measures.

Primary source: 7, 1981, No. 6-8 Abstract: The article is an interview with general aircraft designer Oleg Konstantinovich Antonov on the occa- sion of his 75th birthday. Anticipating a question about the latest achievements of the bureau that he heads in Kiyev, Antonov started talking about the AN~72 and AN-32 transport airplanes and the l7-seat AN-28 passenger plane, all of which were developed in the 10th 5-Year Plan period. The AN-28 is intended to replace the passenger version of the AN-2, which is now 37 years old. Nevertheless, Antonov observed that there are still enough orders for the AN-2 to continue its production through the next five years. Antonov also talked about his pureau'ts AN-24, which he says is the most widely used air- plane in the airline Aeroflot. A decision has been made to increase the service life of the AN-24. This has required extensive calculations and experimental studies of the endurance and durability of the wings, fuselage, aggregates and other parts. Increas- ing the service Life of the AN-24 is expected to yield savings of 88 million rubles annually, according to Antonov. Antonov also responded to questions about his notions of aircraft of the future, and about ideal qualities of leaders of large groups of specialists.
