Dabagyan, Areg Vagarshakovich

The son of a Bolshevik, a participant in the Civil War, a party leader Vagarshak Shamirovich Dabagyan (1899-1938). He graduated from high school with a gold medal. In 1936, without entrance exams, he was admitted to the Moscow Aviation Institute (MAI). While studying at the Moscow Aviation Institute, he also attended lectures at the Medical Institute, as well as lectures on mathematics at Moscow University .

After the arrest of his father in 1938, as the son of an “enemy of the people”, he was expelled from the university and the Komsomol, interrupted by casual earnings. From nervous shocks and difficult living conditions, A. V. Dabagyan started pulmonary tuberculosis and spent several months in the hospital.

After the famous “letter from Comrade Stalin to Comrade Ivanov” was published in the Pravda newspaper in 1938, which said that “the son is not responsible for his father,” he asked for restoration to study at the Moscow Aviation Institute, but received renouncement. A. Dabagyan was offered to choose from several universities not in the capital, and he decided to study at the Kharkov Mechanical Engineering Institute (KhMMI). Since September 1939, A. V. Dabagyan is a student of the Faculty of Automotive Engineering with a degree in “Dynamics and Strength of Machines” (PDM).

After the outbreak of World War II, he, along with all classmates in full force, filed an application with the military enlistment office with a request to send him to the front. But he received a referral to study at the Academy of Armored and Mechanized Forces . After a brief, intense training, in September 1941, cadets of the Academy were issued certificates of graduation without the defense of a graduation project. The best graduates were sent by teachers to tank schools. Among them was Areg Vagarshakovich, who was assigned to the Kiev Tank Technical School , then located in the Urals in the city of Kungur . In February 1944 he was appointed lecturer at the Department of Tanks of the Academy of Armored and Mechanized Forces.

In 1945 he was transferred to the Department of Electrical Engineering of the Vladivostok Higher Naval School . The Department of Electrical Engineering was just being created, there was not a single teacher at it, and Areg Vagarshakovich was appointed acting head. He was given the task: to equip the department during the year and be sure to defend his dissertation.

At the Academy of Armored and Mechanized Forces A.V. Dabagyan was engaged in research of tank suspension oscillations and published two works with the heading “For official use” at the Department of Tanks: “Analysis of the work of tank shock absorbers installed on tanks used in World War II” and “Navigation system” tanks (Analysis of tanks used in World War II). ”

In 1947, Mr .. in KhMMI defended his thesis on "Electrical modeling of tank oscillations when driving over rough terrain" and was invited to the Department of Theoretical Mechanics of KhMMI (Kharkov).

In 1964, at the Faculty of Engineering and Physics, based on close cooperation between the Design Bureau of Electrical Appliances and the KhPI, a new specialty was opened - Flight Dynamics and Control of the Movement of Missiles and Spacecraft and the Department of Automatic Motion Control, which was entrusted with the training of specialists in this direction . The head of the department was the doctor of technical sciences, professor A.V. Dabagyan. In the same year, between the Electrical Appliance Design Bureau and the KhPI, an agreement was concluded on the institute's targeted training of research engineers for the design bureau with a specialization in Flight Dynamics and Control.

In 1972, a new specialty was opened at the department of AUD - automated production control systems (ACS). In 1977, this specialty stood out in a separate department, the head of which was Professor Dabagyan. For all these specializations, original curricula and software packages have been created. Dabagyan himself taught the courses “Theory of Oscillations”, “Theory of Management”, “Methods of Experimental Research”, as well as the original courses “Designing Developing Techno-Economic Systems” and “Human Intelligence and Artificial Intelligence”. Professor Dabagyan was a member of the editorial board and the editorial board of the international journal Engineering & automation.

Worked: Head of the Department of Machine Dynamics and Control (1947-1977) and the Department of ASK (1977-1990), professor (since 1990).

A.V.Dabagyan headed the department until 1990, and lectured until 1998. In 1998, as a result of a serious illness, Areg Vagarshakovich lost his leg, but did not leave his scientific work until the end of his days. Already, being confined to a wheelchair, he created a new theory of wave processes in political and economic systems, which he published in a monograph.

He made a great contribution to the study of the dynamic processes of turbogenerator rotors . Studying the dynamic processes taking place in the turbine rotor and blade apparatus, as well as in its control system, he took a fresh look at the problems of the dynamics and strength of turbomachines. Since 1951, the scientist conducted research in the field of electromechanical vibrations of rotors of hydro- and turbogenerator plants.

The doctoral dissertation on the topic “Some oscillatory processes in the rotors of turbo and hydro generator sets under asymmetric and asynchronous modes of generator operation” was defended in January 1961. While working on it, A. V. Dabagyan visited large factories in Kharkov , participated in government commissions, analyzed the causes of accidents at hydraulic and thermal power plants.

He studied the issues of technical cybernetics and its application in various branches of science, education and production.

The author of 12 monographs, 117 articles written without co-authors, he received 10 copyright certificates.

The teacher, among his students 51 candidates of sciences, 10 - doctors of sciences. 24 of his students became teachers of KhPI, five became heads of departments.
