Слайд 2
Summing up the achievements of human civilization, «American
Institute of Mining, Metallurgical and Petroleum Engineers»...
... made a
rating of the most significant discoveries made throughout its history.
Слайд 3
The greatest achievement of scientific thought has been
unanimously recognized the periodic table of elements of the
Russian scientist Dmitri Ivanovich Mendeleyev (1869), without which all research in chemistry and nuclear physics would be very difficult.
Слайд 4
Mendeleyev is known for many even more important
than the periodic table: it was he who defined
the "ideal degree for Russian vodka - 40%.
In addition, the great scientist fascinated manufacture of luggage, and was an active member of the Union of Russian People "- better known as the
" Black Hundreds. "
Слайд 5
On the second set AIMMPE discovery of iron
smelting technology - these things important for the development
of the civilization of the future event has occurred, according to the institute in Egypt in 1550 BC Well, in the history of Institute staff understand much worse than in the technologies and materials - otherwise they would know that first began to smelt iron by the Hittites, and it happened 300 years earlier in Asia Minor.
Слайд 6
The third place went to the transistor, invented
in 1948 by the American scientists William Shockley, John
Bardeen and Walter Bratteynom, which earned him the Nobel Prize.
Opening marked the beginning of the miniaturization of electronics, that's just why it is so undeservedly been forgotten radio tubes, from which it started and electronics?
Слайд 7
On the fourth is irreplaceable material, like glass,
which appeared in 2200 BC in the eastern Mediterranean.
For scientists it is special material of construction of laboratory dishes, but for the masses - containers for beer and stronger drinks.
Слайд 8
Microscope, the Dutch scientist and inventor Antony
van Leeuwenhoek (1632- 1723) took the fifth
place. He assembled the instrument by which initially considered the flea, and then looked at a drop of water - and was horrified! Since then, this self-taught genius drank only tea and wine.
Слайд 9
In the sixth place is cement, which began
to be applied to the XVIII century and a
revolution in construction. Incidentally, the newly 57-year-old Berlin architect Friedrich Lantz decided to make a revolution in production technology of the cement, suggesting make it out of the dog shit ...
Слайд 10
The invention of steel, which is believed to
have occurred 300 BC in India, received the seventh
place.
Needless to say - steel blades and armor, and then steel guns, tanks and battleships played a crucial role in bringing together disparate empire into a single modern civilization.
Слайд 11
On the eighth place is the technology of
production of more ancient weapons-grade material - copper.
At
first it was mined in the simplest way by finding nuggets of copper.
When they finished, around 5000 years ago in Asia Minor, someone's brightest minds have learned to smelt it from minerals.
One of the oldest areas of metallurgy was Donbass, where archaeologists have found copper mines and furnaces for smelting.
Слайд 12
On the 10th place is converter for the
smelting steel from iron, which has set up English
engineer Henry Bessemer (1813-1898). The method of obtaining the method martenovsky AIMMPE somehow ignored.
