Reference excerpt

The National Aerospace University "Kharkiv Aviation Institute" (abbr. KhAI, Ukrainian: Національний аерокосмічний університет «Харківський авіаційний інститут», romanized: Natsionalnyi aerokosmichnyi universytet «Kharkivskyi aviatsiinyi instytut», abbr. ХАІ) is a state-sponsored research university in Kharkiv, Ukraine which specializes in aviation and space engineering. The KhAI was founded in 1930.

History The KhAI was founded in 1930 on the basis of aviation division of the Kharkiv Polytechnic Institute. In 1941-44 it was evacuated to Kazan. Its history is closely connected with the development of aircraft engineering and science in the Soviet Union. The university is famous for its creation of the first in Europe high-speed airplane with a retractable landing gear and the creation of the design of the turbojet engine developed by teacher of the KhAI A. M. Liulka who afterwards became the academician and designer of many structures of aircraft engines including the engine of the aircraft Su-27. The KhAI is a unique higher educational institution where the airplanes developed by the Institute Design Bureau under the supervision of professor I. G. Neman were produced serially at the aircraft plants and run on passenger airlines. From 1977 to 1984 the Designer General O.K. Antonov ran the department of airplane structure at the KhAI. In 1978 the KhAI was given the name of N. Ye. Zhukovskiy. In 1980 the institute was awarded with the order of Lenin. In 1998 the N. Ye. Zhukovskiy State Aerospace University “Kharkiv Aviation Institute” was founded on the basis of the KhAI and in 2000 the University got a status of the National higher education institution and was renamed the National Aerospace University ″Kharkiv Aviation Institute″.

Students The university has trained about 53 000 engineers. More than 80% of the specialists with higher education who work in Ukrainian aerospace area are the graduates of the KhAI. At present about 7000 students and 160 post-graduate students are trained at the university; 700 teachers and 2000 employers work here. Among them there are 95 professors and doctors of science, more than 400 associate professors and candidates of sciences. Among the teachers of the university there is 1 USSR State Lenin Prize winner, 3 USSR State Prize winners, 25 Ukraine State Prize winners, 11 USSR Council of Ministers Prize winners. In 1992 the KhAI resumed the training of foreign students. Over 1000 foreign citizens from 40 countries of Asia, Africa and America are trained annually at the university.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with National Aerospace University – Kharkiv Aviation Institute

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what National Aerospace University – Kharkiv Aviation Institute claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In astronomy, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to National Aerospace University – Kharkiv Aviation Institute before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about National Aerospace University – Kharkiv Aviation Institute ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of National Aerospace University – Kharkiv Aviation Institute

In research: National Aerospace University – Kharkiv Aviation Institute appears in astronomy research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses National Aerospace University – Kharkiv Aviation Institute in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: National Aerospace University – Kharkiv Aviation Institute is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1930 establishments in Ukraine, Aerospace engineering organizations, Aviation in the Soviet Union, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for National Aerospace University – Kharkiv Aviation Institute outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
