21st International Scientific Conference Reshetnev Readings-2017

Abstract

21st International Scientific Conference Reshetnev Readings-2017 (8–11 November 2017)Preface to 21st edition of Reshetnev Readings Conference Proceedings.The Russian Academician Mikhail Reshetnev (1924-1996) is one of the pioneers of the Soviet space program. His contributions were especially important to Soviet (later, Russian) satellite communication and navigation systems. As a sign of gratitude for Reshetnev’s achievements, two institutions - our University and a satellite manufacturing company were named in his honor.2017 is the 21st time that the University has organized a scientific conference in memory of Academician Reshetnev. Prior to 2017, the University was named Reshetnev Siberian State Aerospace University. After it merged with the Siberian University of Technology in 2016, its name was changed to Reshetnev Siberian State University of Science and Technology, or Reshetnev University.2017 is, therefore, the first time that the University is holding the Conference in a new status.While the traditions sections of the Conference with the fields of aerospace technology and engineering, computer science and telecommunication systems remain as the nucleus of the Conference, new sections, including a significantly developed section or workshop on Materials Science and Engineering have been added. The scope of the section has been broadened, adding new areas of research such as forestry products and biomaterials in engineering, solid-state physics, composite materials, polymers, and other areas related to the science of developing and producing new materials.The Conference is traditionally held in the Siberian city of Krasnoyarsk. Over 200 participants annually take part in the Conference, making it one of the largest scientific event in the city. The Conference is multidisciplinary. However, the topics of the reports should be relevant to engineering and industry.Pr. Yurii Loginov,Vice Rector for Science and ResearchReshetnev University
