Paton Eugene Oskarovich
An outstanding Ukrainian scientist in the field of welding processes and bridge construction, Academician of the USSR Academy of Sciences (1929). Honored Scientist of the USSR (1940). Founder and first head of the Institute of Electric Welding of the Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. Є.О. Paton was born on March 5, 1870, in Nice, France, devoted almost all of his mature life to the formation and development of welding, has more than 93 works in the field of welding, made a fundamental contribution to the development of Ukraine as an industrial state.
In 1941-1943, the “father” of welding conducted research on the technology of welding special steels, the physical basis of burning arc under the flux, weldability of metals, creates a new class of welded structures, manages the creation of welded pipes, ships, machines for various purposes. He is the author and project manager of more than 100 welded bridges. Among them is one of the largest in the world – a welded bridge across the Dnieper in Kiev.
WELDING IS A
FUTURE
...I want you to be a serious person, to be needed by someone other than yourself and your parents.
О.P. Paton
... I know that gives the greatest joy. This is the ability to set yourself a small but independent goal and persistently seek to achieve it. Knowing what you want to achieve in life is a great happiness. My choice was made firmly: I will build bridges.
E.О. Paton
I INHERITED FROM MY FATHER:
- Love of independence
- Poorly developed sociability, as a result of which I was little in the company and had a small circle of acquaintances.
- Success in work.
- Persistence in carrying out the planned (outlined, defined) goal.
- Pride incompatible with precaution before superiors. That's why I was always ashamed to ask for myself.
- Highly developed practicality. In any work, I am always primarily interested in its purpose and practical purpose.
- Demanding of subordinates and yourself too.
EDUCATION
1894. I started working at the department of Dresden Polytechnic Institute and quickly got used to my new position at the institute. Participation in the design of a large railway station (in Dresden) opened an invaluable opportunity from the very first independent steps to check in practice, life, consolidate the knowledge gained on the student bench. At the largest bridge-building plant in Gutehofnungschütte in Stekradesne in January 1895, I was entrusted with the working design of the road bridge and other design work on the bridges.
E.О. Paton
Farewell, Germany, you have nothing to keep me, my place is in Russia. In August 1895, I went to St. Petersburg to become a student again for a year ... In eight months I had to prepare for exams in 12 subjects and complete 5 major graduation projects. In one year, the work was done, which normally takes two or three years. I started with the bridge project - the most responsible of all diploma projects, especially since I have already designed bridges in Germany.
Є.О. Paton
Kyiv Polytechnic Institute offered me the newly created Department of Bridges...
Lectures, designing bridges, compiling textbooks ... Years passed for me in this ...
The creation of the Kyiv Pedestrian Bridge at the end of Petrivska Alley, a bridge well known to all Kyivites, brought me a lot of creative joy. The continuation of Petrivska Alley was hindered by the rest of the slope on the mountainous bank of the Dnieper, which had not yet slipped. Initially, a project was put forward to pass this land through the tunnel. This decision seemed to me uninteresting, boring. This beautiful corner of Kiev could be decorated with a light, beautiful bridge. It would look extremely attractive against the backdrop of the boundless Dnieper farther and beautiful Kiev parks. I suggested making a deep excavation on the slope and covering it with a light footbridge with sickle-shaped openwork trusses. This opinion was liked and approved.
Є.О. Paton
The park bridge in Kyiv was built in 1912 according to the project of E.O. Paton
Electric welding
On February 2, 1933, the Presidium of the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences decided to organize the Institute of Electric Welding, and on January 1, 1934, the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR issued a resolution establishing the world's first specialized center for scientific and engineering work in the field of welding. Eugene Oskarovich Paton was the permanent director of the Institute of Electric Welding until August 1953.
The main direction of the Institute's staff in the first years of its existence was the study of the strength of welded joints and the search for rational forms of welded structures. These issues were extremely important at the beginning of the development of welding. Studies of welded joints and structures conducted at the Institute of Electric Welding E.O. Paton and his staff allowed to create a scientific basis for the design, calculation and manufacture of welded structures.
In 1939–1940, I already saw this important problem, I saw and believed that it would completely determine the entire content of our scientific work in the future. This is automatic submerged arc welding.
… In automatic submerged arc welding, I saw the realization of all the goals that I and my employees set for themselves, starting work on mechanization of welding. We persistently went to them through all the searches, mistakes and failures. These goals were: high productivity and quality of seams, the release of welders from hard manual labor.
High-speed submerged arc welding has not only gained general recognition, but has also become the main technological process in armor shops. Tens of thousands of combat vehicles came out of the shops with seams welded under the flux. By the end of the war, there were no hand-made seams on the tank hulls. Production of tanks for the front has increased several times. At the end of the war, their number exceeded 55,000.
Є.О. Paton
At the end of 1941 there were only three auto-welding plants in the country's factories, at the end of 1942 there were already 40 of them, at the end of 1943 - 80, in March 1944 - 99, in December 1944 - 133! At this time, the Institute worked at 52 plants.
On June 9, 1947, the Council of Ministers of the USSR adopted a resolution "On expanding the use of automatic submerged arc welding in industry." The institute was entrusted with scientific and organizational support of all welding works in the country. To discuss this government resolution in October 1947, the All-Union Conference on Automatic Welding was held in Kyiv, at which E.O. Paton with the report "Prospects for further development of automatic welding in the USSR."
Science goes into production
In 1948 he studied in a laboratory car in Ukraine.
For the introduction of new technologies and equipment in the welding industry and the establishment of professional training of welders E.O. Paton created a laboratory car at the Institute of Electric Welding. Thanks to this innovative idea, the specialists of the Institute were able to quickly bring new knowledge to enterprises in the most remote corners of the country.
Farewell, Germany, you have nothing to keep me, my place is in Russia. In August Based on the conclusion of Academician E.O. Paton, based on scientific and practical data, in the case of the use of automatic submerged arc welding in bridge construction will save metal by an average of 20% and labor over 2 million man-hours… In addition, it reduces the need for rolling, increases corrosion resistance of structures, frees transport from unnecessary transportation of metal.
From the note of MS Khrushchev to the Central Committee of the CPSU
I look at our talented youth with hope. Most of his comrades still have a relatively short experience of scientific activity, but they have learned to work collectively, amicably, cohesively, not to experience and critically evaluate their successes, to keep a close connection with life and production. This allows me to hope that the електро Institute of Electric Welding created by us will continue to cope with its great tasks…

Biography
Boris had to defend his diploma on the first day of the war. Given the situation, the graduates were allowed to defend all at once. On the way to the Polytechnic Institute, near the current Victory Square, Boris came under attack by German planes.
"We were young and reckless: I could not find anything better than to hide from the bombs in the entrance of the nearest house. As if it was raining. Fortunately for me, the bomb did not hit that house. Here in these circumstances, I graduated from the institute i got direction in Leningrad, on behalf Zhdanov sudnobudivnyy plant - where I held pre-diploma practice, well known enterprise, also liked me Leninhrad "
B.E. Paton
But the war changed his destination: he was redirected to Gorky, to the Krasnoye Sormovo plant, where he worked until February 1942.year. At that time, at his father’s request, he was transferred to the Electric Welding Institute, which was evacuated from Kyiv and was then based in Nizhny Tagil. They lived where they worked: on the territory of a tank factory. Research work was performed directly in the shops. And in an unprecedentedly short time, it led to outstanding results. Modes, methods, techniques and technology were developed, which provided high speeds and excellent welding quality. The complexity and pioneering nature of these studies is convincingly evidenced by the fact that Hitler’s Germany never managed to use automatic welding of tank armor, and in the United States it appeared only in 1944.years. From day to day, from month to month, the “Paton seam” reliably connected the “legendary T-34” and other combat vehicles into a monolithic whole. He was indeed stronger than the armor itself, and even under direct fire he continued to hold the armor plates mutilated by fire. It was a scientific feat of the institute and its leaders.
It was difficult at first. After all, at that time his knowledge, experience, authority were inferior to his father's. It is one thing to be the father's deputy and quite another to run the institute himself. But there is a saying: "Not holy pots sculpt.".
B.E. Paton
At the age of 35, Borys Yevhenovych Paton became the director of the Institute of Electric Welding and remained in this position until 2021.
The practical implementation of many ideas in the field of astronautics is impossible without the widespread use of welding metals directly in space as one of the most promising and universal technological processes of joining materials.
E.О. Paton
On the eve of May 1, 1975, Volodymyr Vasyliovych Shcherbytsky called me and said: "Suslov called me to appoint you president of the Union Academy." I say, “No. Vladimir Vasilyevich, I will not go there. " “How can you not go! But this is Moscow, the Central Committee of the CPSU. Especially since Brezhnev wants that too. ” I replied that I did not aspire to Moscow. Here I have an institute, the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences ...
B.E. Paton
"This is an unacceptable place to build a nuclear power plant." This conclusion with the corresponding argumentation (proximity of the station to Kyiv, to the rivers Pripyat and Dnieper, the water of which is used by 70% of the population of Ukraine, etc.) was signed by BE Paton and sent to the leadership of Ukraine. It is absolutely clear that this act of BE Paton is an act of a man of great personal courage and high civic principles.
Academician V.G. Baryakhtar
The working day of the President of the Academy in May and throughout the summer began early in the morning and ended late at night. Determination of scientifically substantiated priority measures and recommendations to eliminate the consequences of the reactor explosion required acquaintance with the situation directly at the accident site, close ties with the Government Commission of the USSR, Kyiv City Commission, involvement of many institutes of the Academy, ability to choose the best course of action, coordination many participants in the work. The President has taken over the main part of these complex and responsible affairs. Working daily, including Saturdays and Sundays, he determined the main activities of the Academy, held final meetings of the operational commission of the Presidium, made final decisions on the measures proposed by the commission and sought their implementation.

He did not make a career. He works. This is the natural state of his soul. It is difficult to determine the main motive: "curiosity of the scientist", "need for activity" or "benefit to society". Probably all three take place.
М.М. Amosov
Remember: we were not born to stand still. Do not let the active voltage weaken. Appreciate each day and hour. Even ancient thinkers realized that it is man, human life – the measure of everything. Your own life is no exception …
B.E. PAton
I repeat: youth is everything. There will be no youth, there will be no scientific schools, and scientific schools are what science is based on.
