Khristianovich Institute of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics of the Siberian Branch of the RAS, ITAM SB RAS (Russian: Институт теоретической и прикладной механики имени С. А. Христиановича СО РАН) is a research institute in Akademgorodok of Novosibirsk, Russia. It was founded in 1957.

History

The institute was founded by Sergey Khristianovich in 1957, he also became its first director.[1] In 1957, the institute was located within the territory of SibNIA, where it was engaged in the creation of a supersonic wind tunnel until 1960.[2]

In 1991, the International Center for Aerophysical Research (ICAR) was established at the institute.[3] In 1997, the institute became a member of the International Supersonic Tunnel Association (STAI).[4][3]

In 2005, the institute was named after Sergey Khristianovich.[5]

As of 2023, three scientists at the institute had been arrested on suspicion of treason of sharing hypersonic technology.[6]

Scientific activity

The main directions of scientific research are physical-chemical mechanics, aerogasdynamics, mathematical modeling in mechanics, mechanics of rigid body, deformations, and destructions.[7]
