During the Great Patriotic War, he was in the ranks of the Soviet Army, participated in battles with the Nazi invaders (1941-1943) and returned to the university in the fall of 1943 after being seriously wounded, in 1944 he defended his thesis on the topic “Heat of Wetting of Soils.” , and in 1952 - a doctoral dissertation on the topic “Genesis and composition of soils as the basis for the classification and study of their properties.” The main scientific directions are soil science, regional engineering geology, protection of the geological environment, theory and methodology of engineering geology.

In the field of soil science, the nature and engineering-geological features of clayey, loess and sand rocks have been studied, the role of bound water in soils has been established, and physicochemical phenomena at the mineral-water interface have been studied; a genetic approach to the study of rocks and soils has been developed, the doctrine of the dependence of the physical, physico-chemical and physicomechanical properties of rocks on their composition, structure and texture, which are formed in the process of lithogenesis, has been developed, the nature of the strength of dispersed soils, swelling, shrinkage and stickiness of clays, subsidence of loess, the concept of “optimal compaction load of clay soils” was introduced, the process of clogging of sandy soils was studied, which served as the basis for the development of one of the methods for artificially reducing their water permeability.

In the field of regional engineering geology, under the leadership of E. M. Sergeev, research was carried out along the route of the Main Turkmen Canal (1951-1953), along the valleys of the Ob, Irtysh, Yenisei, Amur rivers (1954-1961), in Eastern Siberia (1960-1963), ""Western Siberia (1961-1975), Non-Black Earth zone of the European part of the RSFSR (1976-1981). In the process of regional research, a methodology for small-scale engineering-geological mapping of vast territories was developed; A certain stage of work in this direction was the publication under his editorship of the 8-volume monograph "Engineering Geology of the USSR", which received the Lenin Prize of the USSR (1982). The monograph examines the basics of small-scale engineering-geological zoning, applies a unified approach to assessing the regional engineering-geological conditions of the territory of the USSR, gives a comprehensive description of the entire territory, and makes the first attempt to take into account human economic activity when assessing the engineering-geological conditions of large territories.

In the field of theory, history and methodology of engineering geology, he develops the position that engineering geology should be a science about the “noosphere”, studying the earth’s crust as an environment for human life and activity; develops the doctrine of the geological environment, its rational use and protection.

At Moscow University he teaches the course “Soil Science” (since 1946). There he created a scientific school of geological engineers; among his students are V.I. Osipov, S.D. Voronkevich, R.S.

AND ENGINEERING GEOLOGY WITHIN ITS WALLS

V.T. Trofimov, professor of the Faculty of Geology. From an article in the journal “Engineering Geology”. 2014. No. 1

Evgeny Mikhailovich Sergeev for the first time became a member of the corporation of Moscow State University. M.V. Lomonosov (MSU) in 1935 as a first-year student at the Faculty of Soil Geography. For more than 60 years, E.M. Sergeev remained a member of this corporation. Only in 1941–1943. As a participant in the Great Patriotic War, he was outside the walls of the university.

Evgeniy Mikhailovich’s positions in the university community by year are as follows:

1935–1940 – student of the soil-geographical (since 1938 – geological-soil) faculty;

1940–1941 – assistant of the department of soil science;

1941 – secretary of the party committee of Moscow State University;

1943–1944 – postgraduate student of the Department of Soil Science;

Since 1944 – Candidate of Sciences;

1944–1945 – Associate Professor of the Department of Soil Science;

1945–1948 – Secretary of the Moscow State University Party Committee;

1948–1953 – Associate Professor of the Department of Soil Science;

Since 1952 – Doctor of Science;

Since 1953 – Professor of the Department of Soil Science;

1954–1958 – Dean of the Geological Faculty of Moscow State University;

1963–1964 – Dean of the Geological Faculty of Moscow State University;

1964–1969 – Vice-Rector of Moscow State University for educational and scientific work of natural faculties;

1969–1978 – First Vice-Rector of Moscow State University;

1989–1997 – Advisor to the Rector of Moscow State University.

From this purely formal list it follows that E.M. Sergeev was a person whose role in the development of the Department of Engineering Geology, the Faculty of Geology and Moscow University was very great.

Having become the head of the department of soil science and engineering geology, Evgeniy Mikhailovich managed to organize its staff in such a way that it took leading positions in the country's engineering geology. The department turned into a center around which geological engineers from all over the Soviet Union united.

E.M. Sergeev was at the head of the restructuring of the educational and scientific work of the department in 1954, when it was transformed into the Department of Soil Science and Engineering Geology. He treated the selection of personnel with great attention and care. At the department he headed, well-known specialists in the field of engineering geology worked throughout the country and abroad: I.V. Popov, S.S. Morozov, N.V. Ornatsky, G.S. Zolotarev, G.A. Golodkovskaya, V. T. Trofimov, V.I. Osipov, Yu.B. Osipov, R.S. Ziangirov, S.N. Maksimov.

E.M. Sergeev was twice elected to the position of dean of the geological faculty of Moscow State University. He remained in the memory of the faculty members as a progressive dean who did a lot for the development of the faculty, responsible and principled in solving vital issues, strict and decisive in implementing decisions made, and attentive to people.

Evgeniy Mikhailovich played a significant role in the life of Moscow University. From 1964 to 1969 he was vice-rector for educational and scientific work of the natural faculties of Moscow State University, from 1969 to 1978 - first vice-rector. He worked together with rectors I.G. Petrovsky, R.V. Khokhlov, A.A. Logunov. During the years of E.M. Sergeev’s activity in the rector’s office, the Faculty of Soil Science separated from the Faculty of Biology and Soil Science and became independent. He invested a lot of effort and energy in organizing the university-wide faculty of advanced training in 1966, and in establishing training in the evening department.

As a representative of the country's largest university, Evgeniy Mikhailovich headed the Scientific and Methodological Council of the USSR Ministry of Higher Education for Higher Geological Education. In 1965, he was elected a member of the administrative council of the International Association of Universities (IAU). As the first vice-rector of Moscow University, E.M. Sergeev was deputy chairman of the Council of Rectors of Higher Educational Institutions in Moscow.

Despite numerous official and public responsibilities, the main thing for Evgeniy Mikhailovich was still the department he headed. As her assistant in 1940, he began conducting practical classes in soil science. Later, in 1944, E.M. Sergeev began teaching the main department course “Soil Science,” which he taught until 1987. He also supervised students completing coursework and dissertations, and did a lot of work with graduate students and young teachers.

Evgeniy Mikhailovich was the initiator of introducing the course “Engineering Geology” into the curricula of all geological specialties at the Geological Faculty of Moscow State University. He created and taught this course for 5 years. Those who listened to E.M. Sergeev’s lectures constantly recall the richness of their new data and the careful selection of demonstration material.

E.M. Sergeev was able to so interestedly discuss the materials of their work with students and graduate students and so skillfully maintain scientific interest in them that each of them was imbued with respect for the work, doing it with enthusiasm. He also devoted a lot of attention and effort to working with teachers. The department introduced a system of mutual attendance of classes and lectures and exchange of experience. The results of such visits were discussed at department meetings.

Evgeniy Mikhailovich’s special concern was the preparation of textbooks and teaching aids for courses taught by department staff. And in this matter he was very demanding both of himself and of his colleagues. He himself, having started teaching the course “Ground Science”, in 1946 prepared the textbook “Selected Chapters of General Ground Science”, in 1952 – the textbook “General Ground Science”, in 1959 – “Ground Science”.

To prevent the textbook “Soil Science” from becoming outdated, Evgeniy Mikhailovich involved his students in working on it - G.A. Golodkovskaya, R.S. Ziangirov, V.I. Osipov, V.T. Trofimov. It was published in 1971 and then reprinted in revised form in 1973 and 1983. Its last edition was awarded the USSR State Prize in 1988.

Evgeniy Mikhailovich paid great attention to the organization and activities of expeditions in which department staff, graduate students and students worked. He himself went out on field work mainly until 1964. But the teams with whom he worked as a scientific director conducted a huge amount of field research in various regions of the USSR and obtained new material that allowed the department to carry out original scientific engineering-geological work and major generalizations. It was on these expeditions that students completed their practical training, many graduate students collected experimental material, and young employees grew scientifically and methodologically. It was expeditionary work at the turn of the 50s and 60s. XX century transformed the scientific work of the department.

The main areas of research by E.M. Sergeev are related to solving problems of soil science, regional engineering geology, protection of the geological environment, theory and methodology of engineering geology. And Evgeniy Mikhailovich made his own contribution to each of them, which contributed to the further development of engineering geology.

E.M. Sergeev developed a genetic approach to the study of soils, which was first clearly proclaimed by the founder of the department M.M. Filatov. In addition, he developed such issues as the general classification of soils, the relationship between the mineral and granulometric composition of dispersed rocks, the concept of the optimal compaction load of clay deposits, correlations between quantities characterizing certain properties of soils, etc.

Evgeniy Mikhailovich managed to attract a wide range of researchers to study the strength of soils. Together with his students, he studied the nature and engineering-geological features of clayey and loess rocks, established the role of cohesive water in soils, studied physicochemical phenomena at the mineral-water interface, developed the doctrine of the dependence of physical, physicochemical and physico- mechanical properties of rocks from their composition, structure and texture, the nature of the strength of dispersed soils, swelling, shrinkage and stickiness of clays, subsidence of loess was studied.

Success in solving complex problems in the field of genetic soil science was greatly facilitated by the constant search by members of the department staff and Evgeniy Mikhailovich himself for new research paths and the use of the latest equipment. Thus, already in 1954, on the initiative of E.M. Sergeev, an electron microscopy laboratory was created at the Department of Soil Science and Engineering Geology. It soon became one of the world's leading centers for the study of soil microstructure. Employees of the department developed original methods and computer programs for the quantitative analysis of electron microscopic data. The results of these studies were published in two monographs scientifically edited by E.M. Sergeev (“Atlas of microstructures of clayey rocks,” 1984; “Microstructure of clayey soils,” 1989). With the direct participation and support of Evgeniy Mikhailovich, the use of installations for X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetric analysis began, to study the magnetic properties and bonds in soils.

On the initiative and under the editorship of E.M. Sergeev, in 1968, a two-volume “Methodological manual for the engineering-geological study of rocks” was created (revised and republished in 1984), in which everything was covered, incl. and the latest laboratory and field techniques for studying rocks.

E.M. Sergeev also dealt with issues of soil clogging, which stand at the intersection of soil science and technical soil reclamation. Two monographic works were devoted to this issue (1955, 1968).

The second scientific area to which Evgeniy Mikhailovich paid a lot of attention is regional engineering geology. On the initiative and under the direct scientific leadership of E.M. Sergeev, a study of the engineering and geological conditions of various regions of the Soviet Union was carried out. He managed to create a large team of employees at the department who successfully worked in this area. These studies allowed the team headed by Evgeniy Mikhailovich to solve many theoretical and practical issues of regional engineering geology. For solving these problems in relation to the territory of Western Siberia, the team received the USSR State Prize in 1977. The largest result of work in this direction was the compilation and publication of the eight-volume monograph “Engineering Geology of the USSR,” which was awarded the Lenin Prize in 1982.

In the 1980s E.M. Sergeev and his student S.B. Ershova worked on issues of engineering-geological zoning of the Earth. They proposed a new original typification of the engineering-geological conditions of the planet, which was reflected in the international monograph “Engineering Geology of the Earth,” published in 1989 in English.

The materials accumulated in various areas of engineering geology required comprehension and generalization. To achieve this goal, Evgeniy Mikhailovich attracted a powerful team of geological engineers from the university and the country. The result of this work was four volumes of “Theoretical Foundations of Engineering Geology”, published in 1985–1986.

E.M. Sergeev paid much attention to discussing issues of history, current state and prospects for the development of engineering geology at Moscow University and throughout the Soviet Union, covering them in his reports and articles.

Evgeniy Mikhailovich was very attentive to his teachers and their memory. Many of his articles are dedicated to S.S. Morozov, I.V. Popov, V.R. Williams, V.V. Okhotin. He dedicated an entire brochure (1956) to the life and work of his immediate teacher and founder of the Department of Soil Science at Moscow State University, M.M. Filatov.

E.M. Sergeev, with his characteristic energy, looked for new ways to develop engineering geology, and he saw these ways as bringing to life V.I. Vernadsky’s thoughts about the noosphere - the sphere of the mind.

With his students and colleagues, Evgeniy Mikhailovich introduced a new concept - “geological environment”, formulated the tasks of geology in the field of protecting the geological environment, and developed a methodology for compiling maps of its changes under the influence of various types of construction. These issues were reflected in his speeches at the XXVII session of the International Geological Congress (1984), in articles and collections (“Geological activity and environmental protection,” 1979; “Engineering-geological problems of protection and rational use of the geological environment,” 1988)

Editing scientific works occupied a large place in Evgeniy Mikhailovich’s scientific activity. He was the chief or scientific editor of major works in the field of engineering geology, such as “Engineering Geology of the USSR” in 8 volumes, “Theoretical Foundations of Engineering Geology” in 4 volumes. Among the works edited by E.M. Sergeev are monographs and collections of many authors in various areas of engineering geology. Evgeniy Mikhailovich also actively worked in the journal “Bulletin of Moscow University” as deputy editor-in-chief, chairman or member of the editorial board.

E.M. Sergeev had a good sense of what was new in pedagogy and science, skillfully supported the passion of his students and colleagues in the department, and he himself was easily infected with new ideas, helping to bring them to life. Possessing such qualities, he became the founder of his own scientific school and the leader, under whom the school of geological engineers at Moscow State University reached the world level. With his scientific, pedagogical and scientific-organizational activities, Evgeniy Mikhailovich not only contributed to the formation of this school, but also used his high scientific and social status to strengthen domestic engineering geology and its international authority. Among his students are 78 candidates and 12 doctors of geological and mineralogical sciences. Among them are Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences V.I. Osipov, Academician of the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences and the Moscow Academy of Sciences V.T. Trofimov, corresponding members of the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences S.D. Voronkevich, Yu.B. Osipov and V.A. Korolev, professors of Moscow University G.A. Golodkovskaya, R.S. Ziangirov, E.N. Kolomensky, V.N. Sokolov, laureates of the USSR State Prize, candidates of geological and mineralogical sciences A.S. Gerasimova and S.B. Ershova, professor of Voronezh University A.N. Vakhtanova and etc.

In his extensive scientific and organizational work, E.M. Sergeev also relied on the strength of the department and Moscow State University. It was the employees of the Department of Soil Science and Engineering Geology that largely ensured the successful activities of the Scientific Council of the USSR Academy of Sciences on Engineering Geology, the creation of the 8-volume monograph “Engineering Geology of the USSR”, the 4-volume monograph “Theoretical Foundations of Engineering Geology”, etc.

The activities of E.M. Sergeev received worthy public and state recognition. He was awarded many state and international awards and the highest scientific prizes, incl. together with the staff of the department he heads. The USSR Academy of Sciences elected Evgeniy Mikhailovich into its ranks: in 1964 he became a corresponding member, and in 1979 - a full member of the USSR Academy of Sciences.

Evgeniy Mikhailovich Sergeev played an outstanding role in the development of engineering geology, in organizing the community of geological engineers not only at Moscow University, but also in the USSR and throughout the world. Largely thanks to his energy, geological engineers at Moscow State University, together with representatives of other organizations, created a number of unique educational, scientific and cartographic works. We need to continue these traditions and not lose momentum.

Major E.M. Sergeev, 1943

From the first days of the Great Patriotic War, E.M. Sergeev went to the front, in July-August 1941 he was the commander of a platoon of reserve command personnel of the southwest. directions. From September 1941 to July 1942 he served in reconnaissance of the 199th division of the 38th Army and fought on the Southwestern, Southeastern, and 4th Ukrainian fronts. From July to the end of December 1942, he took part in the Battle of Stalingrad and served in the intelligence department of the headquarters of a number of fronts. In June 1943, he was seriously wounded, lost a leg, and was demobilized from the front with the rank of major.

Since 1943, after returning to the department. Soil Science Faculty of Moscow State University, E.M. Sergeev began to actively engage in scientific, pedagogical and scientific-organizational activities and proved himself, first of all, as a soil scientist. In 1944 he defended his Ph.D. diss. “Heat of wetting of soils”, in which, based on the heat of wetting, the adsorption centers of the mineral surface of various soils and the energy characteristics of bound water were studied.

In 1946, he published “Selected Chapters of General Ground Science” - the prototype of the future textbook “Ground Science”, which subsequently became widely known. In the 40s - early 50s. he developed and introduced new methods and approaches to the study of rocks as soils; correlations between some properties of soils were studied (1947); genetic (1948), general (1950, 1957) and specific (1951, 1953) classifications of soils were created; the concept of “optimal compaction load” was introduced (1949); The nature of the strength of dispersed soils (1949, 1951), swelling, shrinkage and stickiness of clays, and subsidence of loess were studied. Under his leadership, geological engineers were studied. features of many genetic types of sandy, loess, clayey, carbonate soils. He developed the doctrine of bound water in soils and its energy forms. His scientific developments are widely used in predicting the behavior of soils as foundations for various structures. In 1952, E.M. Sergeev defended his Ph.D. diss. “Genesis and composition of soils as the basis for classification and study of their properties.”

E.M. Sergeev created a number of engineering and geological expeditions at the department. Under his leadership and with his direct participation, engineering and geological research was carried out along the route of the Main Turkmen Canal (1951-1953), along the valleys of the Ob, Irtysh, Yenisei, Amur (1954-1961) in order to create schemes for the use of hydropower resources of these rivers, engineering -geological study of Eastern Siberia (1960-1963), Western Siberia (1961-1975) and the Non-Black Earth Zone of the RSFSR (1976-1981) in connection with the discovery of the largest oil and gas fields and the economic development of these territories. Cycle of works on engineering geology of the West. Siberia, carried out under the leadership of E.M. Sergeev, was awarded the USSR State Prize (1977).

Russian, Soviet engineer-geologist and soil scientist, a leading scientist in the field of engineering geology, a talented teacher and organizer of geological science, professor of the department

Biography

Born into the family of an employee. After graduating from the Moscow Topographical College (1932), he worked for three years as a topographer in the Far East. In 1935, having returned to Moscow, he entered Moscow University with which his entire future life was connected. At Moscow State University, he went from a student in the department of soil science (1935-1940), an assistant in the same department (1941, 1943-1944), an associate professor (1944-1952) to a professor (since 1953) and head of the department of soil science and engineering geology (1954 -1989). At the same time, he was elected dean of the geological faculty of Moscow State University (1954-1957, 1963-1964), was the vice-rector of Moscow State University for scientific and educational work of natural sciences, and the first vice-rector of Moscow State University (1969-1978). He was one of the initiators of the construction of a new building for Moscow State University on the Lenin Hills. In 1981-1986. was the rector of the Academy of National Economy under the Council of Ministers of the USSR.

From the first days of the Great Patriotic War, E.M. Sergeev went to the front, in July-August 1941 he was the commander of a platoon of reserve command personnel in the southwestern direction. From September 1941 to July 1942 he served in reconnaissance of the 199th division of the 38th Army and fought on the Southwestern, Southeastern, and 4th Ukrainian fronts. From July to the end of December 1942, he took part in the Battle of Stalingrad and served in the intelligence department of the headquarters of a number of fronts. In June 1943, he was seriously wounded, lost a leg, and was demobilized from the front with the rank of major.

Scientific activity

In 1943, after returning to the Department of Soil Science of the Faculty of Geology and Soils of Moscow State University, E. M. Sergeev began to actively engage in scientific, pedagogical and scientific-organizational activities and proved himself, first of all, as a talented soil scientist. In 1944, he defended his Ph.D. thesis on the topic “Heat of Wetting of Soils,” in which, based on the parameters of the heat of wetting, he identified and studied the adsorption centers of the mineral surface of various soils and the energy characteristics of bound water in them. In 1946, he published “Selected Chapters of General Ground Science” - the prototype of the future textbook “Ground Science”, which subsequently became widely known. In addition, in the 1940s - early 1950s. he developed and introduced new methods and approaches to the study of rocks as soils; correlations between some properties of soils were studied (1947); genetic (1948), general (1950, 1957) and specific (1951, 1953) classifications of soils were created; the concept of “optimal compaction load” was introduced (1949); The nature of the strength of dispersed soils (1949, 1951), swelling, shrinkage and stickiness of clays, and subsidence of loess were studied.

In 1952, E. M. Sergeev defended his doctoral dissertation on the topic “Genesis and composition of soils as the basis for the classification and study of their properties.”

Under his leadership, the engineering-geological features of many genetic types of sandy, loess, clayey, carbonate and other soils were studied. He significantly developed the doctrine of bound water in soils and its energy forms.

His scientific developments are widely used in predicting the behavior of soils as foundations for various structures. Under his leadership and with his direct participation, engineering and geological research was carried out along the route of the Main Turkmen Canal (1951-1953), along the valleys of the Ob, Irtysh, Yenisei, Amur (1954-1961) in order to create schemes for the use of hydropower resources of these rivers, engineering -geological study of Eastern Siberia (1960-1963), Western Siberia (1961-1975) and the Non-Black Earth Zone of the RSFSR (1976-1981) in connection with the discovery of the largest oil and gas fields and the economic development of these territories. A series of works on the engineering geology of Western Siberia, carried out under the leadership of E. M. Sergeev, was awarded the USSR State Prize (1977).

Under his leadership, a methodology for engineering geological mapping and mapping of large territories was created. The brilliant conclusion of the work was the 8-volume monograph “Engineering Geology of the USSR”, awarded the Lenin Prize (1982), in the creation of which, under the leadership of E.M. Sergeev, many prominent engineering geologists of the country took part. Since the turn of the 1970-1980s. E. M. Sergeev developed issues of environmental geology, rational use and protection of the geological environment. He laid the foundations for the doctrine of the geological environment, its rational use and protection; defined engineering geology as the science of the geological environment. These works largely predetermined the modern development of geoecology and environmental geology.

Evgeniy Mikhailovich Sergeev(March 23, Moscow - March 23, Moscow) - Soviet engineer-geologist and soil scientist, scientist in the field of engineering geology, professor of the Department of Engineering Geology and Protection of the Geological Environment, Faculty of Geology, Moscow State University.
