SECURITY OF SUCCESS — IN CLOSE TIES WITH SCIENCE AND PRODUCTION PLANTS Approaching 75th anniversary of the journal “Ferrous Metallurgy. Bulletin of Scientific, Technical and Economic Information”

Abstract

Scientific and technical journals are related to editions, which make considerableinfluence on equipment and technology of industrial production development. Under modern conditions, when a production science intensity becomes one of main factors of scientific and technical progress, the need in such editions becomes rather important. Facts of the history of the journal “Ferrous Metallurgy. Bulletin of Scientific, Technical and Economic Information” creation and formation shown, as one of most competent industry journals. Its input into forming of the scientific and technical information of domestic ferrous metallurgy system as well as into provision of ties between science and production plants shown. Main purpose of the journal is encouragement of innovation, fundamental and application investigations in the areas of improving ofmetallurgical equipment and technologies, provision of scientists and specialists of plants and organizations of steel industry and adjacent industries, professors, teachers and post-graduators of high schools by proved and reliable information about results of most promising and original investigations in areas of steel industry and metallurgical machine-building, by technical, economic and statistical information about results of domestic and world steel industries, knowledge on publications in the foreign periodic on scientific and technical subjects of the industry. The most important tasks of the journal are as follows: publication on the journal pages results of original scientific investigations and research and technical developments in the area of improving equipment and technology of metallurgical  production in the main stages of domestic and foreign steel industry; summarizing of results of scientific investigations and practical achievements at their implementation at plants of domestic and foreign steel industry; identification and promotion of perspective directions of scientific investigations; forming of atmosphere of open scientific discussion, stimulation of discussions; assistance to propagation of achievements of different scientific schools, publication of information about forthcoming scientific conferences, symposia, seminars and about their results. During the past 75 years from the Bulletin“Ferrous metallurgy” creation time, total 1432 issues of it were published.
