Biography
He was born in the family of a store employee M. M. Davidson (1888-1960) and a dentist R. G. Efrosman (1892-1964). The family had four children, of whom two older ones - Boris and Aron - became famous scientists.
In 1938 A.M. Davidson entered the Dnepropetrovsk Metallurgical Institute, which trained specialists for ferrous metallurgy. With the outbreak of World War II, he volunteered for the front, but in December 1941 he was commissioned due to a serious wound.
Since January 1942 he began to work as an accountant in the village of Studenoyablonevka, Stalingrad Region, on a collective farm named after Lenin.
He worked as an accountant until June 1942, and from July 1942 to March 1944 A.M. Davidson began working on the same collective farm as a school teacher in physics and mathematics. In the same school, he met his future wife Nadezhda Markovna Bovitunenko, a teacher of elementary grades. In the village of Studenoyablonevka in 1943, his first daughter, Valentina, was born.
A.M. Davidson joined the Communist Party in July 1944.
In 1944, he returned to the Dnepropetrovsk Metallurgical Institute and was immediately elected secretary of the Komsomol committee. In 1944, he was appointed Komsomol Central Committee of the Komsomol of the Dnepropetrovsk Metallurgical Institute.
In March 1944, A. M. Davidson was restored as a student at the Dnepropetrovsk Metallurgical Institute and in 1947 he graduated from it, having received the specialty "distributor".
In 1949, A. M. Davidson defended his thesis on the topic "Thermal work of heating wells." The scientific director of his work was the professor of the Department of Metallurgical Furnaces of the Dnepropetrovsk Metallurgical Institute, Noah Yulievich Taits. After defending his dissertation, he was sent to the Zhdanov Metallurgical Institute, where he began to work as a senior lecturer at the Department of Energy and Metallurgical Furnaces.
In August 1950, A.M. Davidson was sent to work at the North Caucasus Mining and Metallurgical Institute, where he began to work as a senior lecturer at the Department of General Metallurgy. He actually had to retrain at SKGMI, because he had previously specialized in ferrous metallurgy, and SKGMI trained specialists in the field of non-ferrous metallurgy. Since November 1951 A.M. Davidson is an assistant professor in his department.
In 1952, his second daughter, Lyudmila, was born in his family. In the same year, he was elected secretary of the party committee of SKGMI, and was in this position until 1960.
He participated in amateur performances of the Institute, sang in the choir.
In 1952-1960 - Secretary of the Party Committee of SKGMI.
In 1960-1963 - Vice-Rector for Academic Affairs at SKGMI.
In 1964 he defended his doctoral dissertation on the theme "Research on some non-ferrous metallurgy furnaces and a methodology for determining their optimal parameters."
In 1968-1991 - Head of the Department of Theory and Automation of Metallurgical Processes and Furnaces, SKGMI.
From 1991 to June 24, 2012 Aron Mikhailovich Davidson continued to work in his department.
Doctor of technical sciences, professor.
The author of 265 scientific papers, 19 copyright certificates and 3 patents.
Honored Worker of Science and Technology of the Russian Federation, Honored Worker of Science and Technology of the Republic of North Ossetia- Alania.
He was awarded the Order of the Red Banner of Labor β(1971),β Badge of Honor β(1980), World War 1 degree (1985), Friendship (2002),β For Merit to the Fatherland β4 degrees (2006) and 20 medals.
Has a daughter and 3 granddaughters.
He obtained the main scientific results in the field of determining the rational temperature of exhaust gases from tubular rotary kilns of calcination processes and in the field of optimizing the temperature of the bodies of electric resistance furnaces.
At the moment, the Pikalevsky Aluminum Plant operates 3 tubular rotary kilns of alumina calcination, working with the temperature of the exhaust gases, calculated on the basis of the doctoral dissertation of A. M. Davidson. At the Bogoslovsky aluminum plant there are 7 such furnaces. The results of scientific activity allowed to obtain a significant economic effect.
