Vladimir Raizer

 

Vladimir Raizer received his MS in Structural Engineering in 1958 from Moscow State Engineering University (MISI), PhD degree in 1962, and Dr. of Technical Science (1972) in Structural Mechanics at the Central Research Institute for Building Structures (former USSR). He was a Scientist, then Senior Scientist at the same Institute from 1962 to 1975, and from 1975 to 1999 he served as Director of the Department of Strength and Reliability of Structures. During the time from 1982 to 1999, he was simultaneously Full Professor in the Department of Structural Mechanics of the Moscow State Engineering University. From 1999 to 2003 he had been a Technical Consultant for the FC&T Corp in San Diego, CA. From 2003 till present time he continues consulting for some companies in US and Russia.

 

Raizer is the author of more than 100 scientific papers and reports published in Russian and International Journals and Proceedings. He is the author of seven books (in Russian) on the problems of the theory of shell structures, reliability analysis and probabilistic methods in design. Also he was an Editorial Board member of the Russian journal ‘‘Structural Mechanics and Analysis of Structures.’’ From1976 to 1999, Raizer was the Chairman of the Coordinating Council on Structural Safety and was responsible for elaboration of the National Codes of Practice. During of 1978–1991 he was a representative in ISO TK98 Bases for Design of Structures, Chairman of ISO TK98, SK3 Loads, Forces and Other Actions and took part in elaboration of the Standards of the International Standardization Organization (ISO).

 

For many years, Raizer was a member of the International Association for Shells and Spatial Structures (IASS) and took an active part in its work. In 1996 Raizer was appointed as Honorary Scientist of Russia and in 1998 he was elected as Honorary Member of the Russian Academy of Architecture and Construction Science.
