Abstract

The article tells about the life and main directions of scientific research of the outstanding Soviet and Russian scientist in the field of mechanics, Academician Gorimir Gorimirovich Cherny (1923–2012); as well as it gives an overview of some of the results obtained to date in the development of his work in the field of analytical study of the dynamics of shock waves in inhomogeneous media, determining the optimal shape of bodies in a supersonic flow, exothermic flows, boundary layer theory, transonic flows. A graduate of Moscow University, G.G. Cherny was a participant in the Great Patriotic War, after its end he played a big role in the development of many areas of science, the organization of scientific research, the education of scientific personnel. He was one of the founders of the Research Institute of Mechanics at Moscow State University, held managerial positions in scientific and educational institutions, and created a scientific school in the field of mechanics. Research by G.G. Cherny, in the main, referred to high-speed gas dynamics. He carried out analytical studies of the subtle issues of calculating flows in various conditions and devices. Many of his results have become classic.
