Every year, thousands of Ukrainian scientists make discoveries. Some immediately receive international recognition, while others await funding are difficult path, and ultimately gaining recognition abroad. There are, unfortunately, and those that remain just ideas. Of course, our people are talented and deserve to be proud of them. Their inventions can talk a lot, and even write a whole thesis research.
Editorial Kolobok.ua I selected the 15 most iconic of them that really had an impact on the world of science.
Helicopter
Helicopter invented aircraft Kiev Igor Sikorsky, who emigrated to the United States. In 1931, he patented a machine project with two propellers - horizontal roof and vertical tail. A May 13, 1940 the first reared its first car in the air. After which he received his first order from the US Army. More than half a century (and even today), all US presidents use helicopters Sikorsky.
Vaccine against plague and cholera
The first vaccine against plague and cholera created the Ukrainian scientist Vladimir Khavkin. He worked first in Odessa, and then in Paris. It was in France, he invented a cholera vaccine. In 1896 in India, a scientist has created the first ever vaccine against plague, which in this country has been vaccinated more than 4 million people.
Hawking was appointed chief bacteriologist country and the director of the Bombay anti-plague laboratory, which later was renamed the Institute of Khavkin. It is noteworthy that all his inventions scientist tested primarily on themselves.
Rocket engine
A native of Zhytomyr Sergei Korolyov is the founder of cosmonautics. In 1931 he and colleague Friedrich Zander made the creation of the Research on jet movement, which eventually became the state science and technology laboratory for the development of rocket aircraft vehicles. In 1957, King launched the first ever artificial satellite to orbit the earth.
X-ray
Ukrainian Ivan bullet 14 years before the German Wilhelm Roentgen designed handset, which became the prototype of the modern X-ray machines. It is much deeper than the German scientist has analyzed the nature and mechanism of occurrence of rays, and showed them the essence of the examples. That bullet did the world's first X-ray of a human skeleton.
Kinescope
Joseph Timchenko together with physicist Nikolai Lyubimov, two years before the opening of the Lumiere brothers created a mechanism, the principle of which was the basis for the creation of a kinescope. In 1893, two films shot with the first picture tube was shown in Odessa. Timchenko ahead of western cinema inventors, but the device was not patented.
Postcode
In 1932, a unique system of letters labeling was created in Kharkov. Initially it used the numbers from 1 to 10, and later changed the format of the number-letter-number. With the onset of World War II we abolished this system, but later began to be used in many countries around the world.
The first kidney transplant
Yuri Crow made the world's first kidney transplant. It is extremely important that the clinical scientist proved that the "kidneys of fresh corpses able to revive and function for the transplant to another person and do not give any specific toxicity or anaphylaxis ". Its operation Crow long outstripped development of transplantation.
Kerosene lamp
Lamp kerosene-based combustion has been invented Lvov pharmacists Ignatius Lukasevich and Jan Zehom in 1853 year. With this new invented method for producing kerosene oil by purification
The capsule, which will save passengers at the time of the plane crash
Our compatriot, the engineer from Kiev, Vladimir Taranenko developed a capsule, which is separated from the aircraft for 2-3 seconds, allowing you to save the passengers during an accident.
capsule system works is quite simple - in the beginning of the plane is pushed a little parachute that pulls the big parachute, and he - the capsule itself. Vladimir Taranenko patented his invention, and plans to continue to improve the capsule to introduce it into mass production.
Desalination of sea water
Technology to desalinate sea water for drinking has developed a professor of Odessa State Academy of Leonard Smirnov cold. Frozen specifically seawater is converted into crystals, with the surface which can remove salts, harmful substances, and heavy hydrogen isotopes, which adversely affect the genetics and nervous system person.
Bloodless blood test
In the past decade, PhD from Kharkov Anatoly Malihin created a unique device "Biopromin", thanks to which at one time you can explore more than 100 indicators of blood. Among them is the erythrocyte sedimentation rate, total protein, lymphocytes. Analysis takes only 5 minutes.
The cost of such a device about $ 20 thousand. and in Ukraine it at the moment, unfortunately, do not use. But it is already successfully used in China, UAE, Czech Republic, USA, Belarus.
Ekoavtomobil running on air
48-year-old from Kharkov, Oleg Zbarskiy invented a car that runs on compressed air. However, its rate is still small - only 40 kilometers per hour, but no harmful emissions from it. With some refinement technique can obtain wide application.
Compact disc
Few people know that the prototype of the CD was invented by a graduate student at the Kiev Institute of Cybernetics Vyacheslav Petrov back in 1960th year. Then development was totally scientific in nature and had nothing to do with listening to music or watching movies.
liquid knife
A group of scientists of the National Aviation University of Ukraine and the Institute of Aerospace developed the so-called liquid scalpel. Thanks to this tool the opportunity to remove the cancerous tumor without disturbing the vascular system.
Laser technology has been successfully tested on animals. it will now be applied to humans. Operations will take place with minimal blood loss laser scalpel reusable analog that does not exist in the world.
The device for controlling hurricanes
Unique design to protect the coast from hurricanes developed Associate Professor of Physics and Technology Faculty of the Rivne State University Viktor Bernatsky. The device captures the flow of strong wind and reduces its effect by counteracting the counter flow. For his invention of the Ukrainian won the European scientific and industrial chamber.
