An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

A team of scientists from the Institute of Civil Engineering and the Institute of Power Engineering at SPbPU, together with the Technological University of Havana "José Antonio Echeverría" (CUJAE), have developed a decision-making model aimed at optimizing the operation of electric power systems during extreme weather events. The project is being implemented with funding from a grant from the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation.

In September 2025, an online meeting of the project teams was held to outline the project's scientific objectives. In October 2025, during a visit to the St. Petersburg Polytechnic University by a delegation from the Technological University of Havana "José Antonio Echeverría," Rector Marta Dunia Delgado Dapena and CUJAE Director General of Information, Communications, and Information Technology Naima Cepero Pérez reviewed the project's interim results. They praised their significant significance for Cuba.

The likelihood of power grid failures increases significantly during extreme weather events. Overhead power line outages can lead to a complete or partial disruption of power supply to consumers. The project aims to minimize the number of consumers without power.

The project's main result is a decision-making model that allows for determining the operating mode of the electric power system that will supply the greatest number of consumers with electricity. This model is presented as a digital solution based on a genetic optimization method. The research team has already received an application for practical implementation from its industrial partner, the RIO Design Bureau.

The scientific and technical results obtained as part of the project determine the optimal operating mode for the electric power system under extreme weather conditions. The proposed approach is intended for use in power system control centers to implement measures aimed at reducing the proportion of consumers without power. This scientific result is of particular value for Russia and the Republic of Cuba, as the problem of climate-related power outages in both countries is particularly acute and has not yet been fully resolved, noted Vyacheslav Burlov, Associate Professor at the Higher School of Technical Biology.

166 years since the birth of Anton Chekhov

Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

Source: Official website of the State –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Anton Pavlovich is a classic of world literature, a writer, and playwright with a medical education. He wrote over 300 works during his lifetime.

Childhood and youth in Taganrog

Chekhov was born in Taganrog into a large merchant family. From childhood, he was accustomed to hard work: he sang in the church choir, studied diligently, helped his father in the grocery store, and even learned to be a tailor. His parents instilled in him not only a hard work ethic but also other important qualities: compassion, respect for people, and a love of nature. While still in high school, he began writing his first short stories and sketches under the pseudonym "Chekhonte," given to him by one of his teachers.

After his family moved to Moscow in 1876, 16-year-old Anton remained alone in Taganrog. To support himself, he tutored and wrote essays. He sent short sketches of Taganrog life, such as "The Stammerer," to his brothers in Moscow. His first play, "Fatherlessness," was also published around that time. It explored spiritual crisis and the loss of moral compass.

The beginning of the journey in Moscow

In 1879, Chekhov moved to Moscow, where he took on the responsibility of caring for his family, living on the modest income from his literary publications. This year proved to be a landmark one for him:

His debut in print: the short story "Letter to a Learned Neighbor" and the humorous piece "What is Most Common in Novels, Stories, etc." His university entrance exams: He enrolled in the medical faculty of Moscow University (now Sechenov University).

While still a student, Chekhov began his medical practice, working as a district doctor and later as the head of a hospital in Zvenigorod.

The development of a writer and mature work

In 1884, Chekhov's first book, "Tales of Melpomene," was published, followed by the well-known collections "Motley Stories" (1886), "In the Twilight" (1887), and "Gloomy People" (1890). In the late 1880s, he actively worked for the theater, creating the plays "Ivanov," "The Wood Goblin," and "The Wedding," as well as the famous vaudevilles "The Bear" and "The Anniversary." Seeking inspiration and new experiences, Chekhov traveled extensively, visiting Nizhny Novgorod, Sakhalin, Yasnaya Polyana, and Western Europe.

In 1892, the writer moved to the Melikhovo estate near Moscow. Here, he actively helped people: as a doctor, he treated peasants, built schools, traveled to areas ravaged by famine, and participated in the general census. It was in Melikhovo that his most famous works were created: the play "The Seagull," the novella "Ward No. 6," and the short stories "The House with a Mezzanine" and "The Man in a Case."

Recent years and recognition

Chekhov spent his last years in Yalta, where he worked on the play The Cherry Orchard and received numerous guests, including Maxim Gorky, Ivan Bunin, and Leo Tolstoy, who called Chekhov "an incomparable artist of life" and "Pushkin in prose."

Chekhov's contemporaries and descendants highly valued him as an innovator. They noted his unique talent for revealing the profound psychology of his characters through everyday details, while the laconicism and radiant humanism of his prose elevated realism to the level of philosophical generalization. He is rightly considered a master whose work enriched not only Russian but also world literature.

Anton Pavlovich Chekhov's work remains relevant because it speaks not of events, but of the eternal: the fragility of the human soul, the search for meaning in everyday life, and the courage to live despite the imperfections of the world. This makes him not just a classic, but our insightful contemporary.

Novosibirsk scientists are helping oil companies safely "package" carbon dioxide underground.

Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

Source: Novosibirsk State University –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Researchers Advanced Engineering School of Novosibirsk State University (AES NSU) Developed mathematical models and monitoring tools that allow assessing the safety of carbon dioxide (CO₂) disposal in geological formations. The work was conducted under a three-year grant from the Russian Ministry of Science and Higher Education, in collaboration with colleagues from Tongji University (Shanghai, China).

We're talking about CO₂ capture and storage technology, which is considered a promising way to reduce the negative effects of greenhouse gas emissions. The approach involves injecting carbon dioxide into well-sealed geological structures, including depleted hydrocarbon deposits, and reliably sequestering it there for decades or even hundreds of years. The key objective is to eliminate the risk of gas leaks to the surface.

As Alexander Valov, a research fellow at the NSU School of Physical Analysis, explained, the project focused on the most vulnerable elements of such systems.

"We studied the wellbore and near-wellbore zone stability—that is, scenarios in which its integrity could be compromised and the injected CO₂ would begin to leak out, damaging the space behind the well casing. Our task is to model such risks in advance and propose ways to prevent them," he explained.

Scientists have developed several mathematical models describing possible mechanisms of well failure due to man-made causes. Particular attention was paid to the cement casing, which seals the well and is considered the weakest link in the structure. The models take into account the mechanical and thermal effects that occur during gas injection, as well as scenarios of cement delamination leading to leakage.

At the same time, the team developed monitoring systems to detect leaks at an early stage. Acoustic methods and distributed temperature sensing (DTS)—sensors that detect characteristic noises and temperature changes in the well—were used. The developed approaches were tested on a special experimental rig, which simulated the CO₂ injection process on a scale.

"Experiments have shown that some sensors perform well, while others require higher sensitivity. Based on the results of these experiments and comparisons with the mathematical models we developed, we have developed specific technological recommendations," noted Alexander Valov.

The work was conducted in collaboration with China's Tongji University. The partners focused on the conditions characteristic of basaltic shelves near Shanghai, while the Novosibirsk scientists focused on the geological features of sedimentary rocks common in Russia. This allowed them to cover a wide range of possible CO₂ storage conditions.

A Russian oil and gas company, which views mature wells as potential carbon dioxide storage facilities, has expressed practical interest in the project's results. Tools have been developed for this company to model injection scenarios for specific field parameters and select the safest modes.

"The model is needed precisely to 'play out' various scenarios in advance and understand which ones minimize risks. Specific parameters always depend on the geology and well design," emphasized Alexander Valov.

According to the scientists, the competencies gained during the project can also be used to assess the risk of cement casing failure in cased boreholes and other technological operations that involve intensive wellbore impacts. The developed approaches not only allow for assessing the safety of CO₂ disposal but also for mitigating environmental risks during the development of oil and gas production technologies.

At the end of the month, a celebratory event dedicated to the memory of the outstanding polytechnician took place at the SPbPU Humanities Institute—the opening of conference hall "Daniil Granin".

The spacious auditorium is located on the second floor of the GI's 6th academic building. Its walls are decorated with a mural featuring a portrait of Daniil Granin, his quotes, and the major milestones of his life. The artist, a Polytechnic University graduate, artist Vasily TsvetkovThe hall smoothly transitions into the Winter Garden.

The famous writer's daughter was present at the opening. Marina Chernysheva-Granina, editor-in-chief of the Neva magazine Alexander Melikhov, students and teachers, directors of institutes, vice-rectors and rector Andrei Rudskoy.

“I considered it an honor to come to such an important event for the university and am grateful for the participation of Marina Danilovna, the daughter of our great writer,” Andrei Rudskoy opened the ceremony. “The gallery of outstanding polytechnicians in the Main Building of our university begins with a portrait Daniil Alexandrovich Granin"That says it all. And when guests come to our university, and we introduce them to the history of the Polytechnic, Daniil Aleksandrovich's name always sounds like a refrain. And today, we're opening not just an auditorium; we're opening a conference hall. And that means a place for lively interaction, discussions, debates on various events, a place where candidate and doctoral dissertation defenses will take place. This will be a powerhouse for our university's humanities education. Farewell!"

Natalya Chicherina, Director of the Humanities Institute, added: "This hall is usually full; graduate students from all of the Polytechnic's institutes come here. Here they study higher education pedagogy and the history of science and technology. Daniil Aleksandrovich once taught the history of technology at the Polytechnic, and today it's a powerful global focus of the Humanities Institute, a scientific specialty. Schoolchildren come here for the Academy of Digital Linguistics and other events. We sincerely hope that the hall will truly become a place of power."

Marina Chernysheva-Granina and Alexander Melikhov shared personal memories of Daniil Alexandrovich. A vivid illustration of the many kind words spoken about this outstanding man was a segment from the 2000 program "Evenings at the Polytechnic," where Daniil Granin answered questions from Polytechnicians from the stage of the White Hall.

Afterwards, Andrei Rudskoy, Marina Chernysheva-Granina, and Natalia Chicherina cut the symbolic green ribbon, signifying the opening. The guests lingered for a long time, chatting and leafing through Daniil Granin's books, which were displayed on the tables. Marina Chernysheva-Granina thanked the Polytechnic University for the invitation and for preserving her father's memory: "I am pleased to be among you, to see your interest, and to be convinced that the Granin Foundation and the Granin Library are doing important work, that the memories of people who loved our city and loved the Polytechnic University are needed. I would like to wish you joy in life. I thank my father every day for passing on to me his ability to enjoy each day."

Denis Orlov, PhD in Engineering: "Grow, work, and develop for the benefit of the scientific community."

Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

Source: Saint Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Denis Sergeevich Orlov

In 2025, Denis Sergeevich Orlov, a senior lecturer at the Department of Transport Systems and Road and Bridge Construction at the Faculty of Automobile and Highway Engineering, successfully defended his dissertation on "A Method for Calculating the Parameters of Hydropneumatic Shock Absorbers for Transport and Technological Machines" in specialty 2.5.11 "Ground Transport and Technological Vehicles and Complexes."

As Denis Sergeevich himself notes, obtaining an academic degree was an important, but not the final, stage of his professional journey:

"This is a certain stage in my life, one that required a lot of effort. But I wouldn't say it's final—more like an interim stage. My goals are to continue growing, working here at the university, and developing for the benefit of the scientific community."

Work on his dissertation spanned several years and included graduate studies, research, and scientific publications. The topic of his research was no accident: Denis Orlov's interest in technical sciences and research developed during his school years and was subsequently nurtured by his professional circle.

This dissertation focuses on developing a method for calculating the parameters of hydropneumatic shock absorbers for transport and technological vehicles. According to the author:

"When the results of a study are accepted by the scientific community, they already carry weight. This provides an opportunity to develop the research further and use it as a basis for subsequent research."

The research results have proven practical value and are already being used in educational settings and in experimental work at the manufacturer's facility. The resulting developments can be used to adapt shock absorbers to various operating conditions, including extreme climatic conditions.

Denis Orlov credits the support of his supervisor, Professor Sergei Vasilyevich Repin, Doctor of Engineering Sciences and Professor of the Department of Ground Transport and Technological Machines, with playing a significant role in preparing and defending his dissertation. Denis Sergeyevich also expressed gratitude to the department and the university as a whole. He noted that the university's scientific environment and interaction with experienced colleagues allowed him to develop a clear understanding of the goals and requirements of his research.

Obtaining an academic degree also impacted her teaching. The professor notes that it became a significant source of trust for students:

"After the order was issued, students became actively interested in research, and already in their junior years, they're thinking about choosing a topic and a supervisor. For them, this is definitely a status symbol."

Student interest in research under Denis Orlov's supervision has grown since he was awarded a PhD: students already in their junior years are showing a desire to choose him as their final theses supervisor.

Now, the senior lecturer in the Department of Transport Systems and Road and Bridge Construction plans to continue his research, develop his chosen field, and participate in the training of young researchers. He also notes the importance of a conscious and consistent approach to a research career, especially for undergraduate and graduate students.

The staff of the Saint Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering congratulates Denis Sergeevich Orlov on receiving his Candidate of Technical Sciences degree and wishes him continued professional and academic success.

Interim results and preparations for the admissions campaign: what was discussed at the SUM Academic Council

Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

Source: Official website of the State –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

On January 28, the State University of Management's Academic Council held its regular meeting. The main items on the agenda were the preliminary results of the two institutes' work for 2025 and plans for 2026.

As usual, the program began with congratulatory remarks. The rector presented letters of gratitude from the Ministry of Science and Higher Education for their assistance in organizing and implementing the "Conductors of Meaning. DNA of Russia" program to the head of the university's press service, Tatyana Sharapova, and press service staff members, Kătălin Grigoriev and Galina Yalysheva. He also congratulated the birthday celebrants of the month.

The meeting was opened by Gennady Azoev, Director of the Institute of Marketing, who presented preliminary results of the Institute's planned performance indicators for 2025 and development prospects for 2026.

"This admissions campaign has successfully enrolled groups across all programs, with the vast majority of students on a contractual basis. In addition, our institute implements network programs with several universities and hosts the Hi-Tech Breakthrough tournament and the Brand Education competition, which are consistently popular, especially among international students," said Gennady Azoev.

The Institute's Director, Fyodor Myshko, reported on the results of its work for 2023-2025.

"Our institute has been steadily enrolling students year after year, and the number of contract students is growing. We have plans to further improve these numbers. In addition to those admitted during the summer, students are transferring throughout the year. I would like to note the increase in the number of our students' publications, including in the Higher Attestation Commission (HAC) system, which is particularly valuable. We understand that higher education needs young professionals, and we are preparing a new generation," shared Fyodor Myshko.

After hearing the reports, Vladimir Stroyev noted that this year will be indicative for many programs, institutes, and universities.

"The higher education system continues to change. We all eagerly await the target figures for fee-based admissions, which are now regulated by the Ministry of Education and Science. At the same time, it is already known that the number of fee-based places in a number of our programs will be reduced nationwide. It is important to adapt to these changes while remaining true to our core mission as a state university—not only the first management university in the country, but also a leader in engineering and economics education, which we continue to actively revive today," Vladimir Stroyev emphasized.

The Academic Council also considered issues related to assigning staff to departments for the preparation of PhD dissertations, assigning endorsement ratings to academic publications, providing discounts on tuition, and other work-related matters.
