Viktor Lvovich Kirpichev (born September 26 . Jul / 8. October 1845 greg. In St. Petersburg , Russian Empire ; † October 7 jul. / 20th October 1913 greg. ) Was a Russian engineer, physicist, professor and university rector.
Life
Kirpitschow was in the cadet corps in Polatsk and at the artillery school in Saint Petersburg, where he received an engineering training with the degree in 1868. He then taught there until he left the military in 1870. Kirpitschow became a professor at the St. Petersburg Institute of Technology in 1876. In 1885 he founded the second State Polytechnic Institute in the Russian Empire after Saint Petersburg in Kharkiv and headed the institute until 1898. In 1888 he was a member of the investigative commission into the Borki railway accident . In 1898 he was appointed the first rector of the newly founded Kiev Polytechnic Institute in Kiev and held this post, which he gave up ostensibly for health reasons and due to conflicts with the tsarist administration, until 1902 and was then elected honorary director of the university. He spent the last ten years of his life as the first lecturer in applied and structural mechanics at the St. Petersburg Polytechnic Institute. Kirpichev was the author of 40 scientific papers, an honorary member of the Russian Technical Society, and the founder and chairman of the South Russian Society of Technologists.
He was also on study trips abroad (Western Europe, USA).
Stephen Timoshenko praised the representation of the statics of indefinite systems in Kirpichov's 1903 book.
