 "Good people are spiritually rich ," " From a good person breathes good and the bad - evil," so read the winged words of the Kazakh people . One such person was a bright personality Akzhan Zhaksybekovich Mashanov - he tireless researcher subsurface mining engineer and geologist , a pioneer geomechanical research in Kazakhstan , a member of the Academy of Sciences of the Kazakh SSR , advocate scientific and technical knowledge , Professor, Honored Worker of Science and Technology in Kazakhstan. AZ Mashanov born November 2, 1906 at the farm Nurken Karaganda region. With five years of experience seven years of school teachers , AZ Mashanov in 1934 entered the Kazakh Mining and Metallurgical Institute , and in 1939 he graduated with honors as a mining engineer and geologist . AZ Mashanov was the first graduate student KazMMI (supervisor its founder surveying profession in Kazakhstan , professor Ryzhov PA ) in 1943 successfully defended his thesis on "The Structure of Turgay ore field ." In the study of the mechanism of the geological structure of the ore field Turgay AZ Mashanov first uses methods subsurface geometry , which was a scientific discovery for geological and mining sciences . In the future, under the direction of AJ Mashanova young scientists of Kazakhstan held a number of important works for the introduction of subsurface geometry in many deposits of nonferrous metals and , in particular, the Zhezkazgan copper- ore basin . The result of his scientific work was published in 1945 monograph " Foundations of a new methodology for studying the structure of ore fields " and doctoral thesis on " Studies of the structure of ore fields by subsurface geometry " (1946 ) . In their research AZ Mashanov widely used and promoted knowledge of related sciences : geology, mechanics and mining. Deep knowledge of geology, mathematics , geometry, mechanics and mining allowed him to create a new scientific direction - " Geomechanics ." Geomechanics as a scientific direction in the mountainous science has found broad scientific and practical application throughout the CIS and Kazakhstan. Continuing his scientific career . AZ Mashanov publishes a number of scientific papers in the field of geomechanics , " Fundamentals of Geomechanics rock- fractured rock ", "Mechanics of the rock mass ," " Stability benches and pit pool Tau ", etc. He was the initiator of a number of international and national scientific conferences and meetings in Moscow, Leningrad , Almaty, Ust-Kamenogorsk and other cities of the former USSR. His scientific works Geomechanics been approved and recognized abroad and published in German at home surveying science in Germany. In 1946 Mashanov AZ together with other outstanding scientists of Kazakhstan headed by KI Satpayev Establishes the Academy of Sciences of Kazakhstan , and takes an active part in its work throughout his career . AZ Mashanov is a pioneer of several gold deposits of minerals, that in 1978 he was awarded a diploma of the discoverer . With years 1950-97 AZ Mashanov worked KazMMI (now KazNTU ) professor, and since 1959 head of the department "Mine ." Over many years of research and teaching in the native school AZ Mashanov a was prepared more than 1,000 mining engineers, surveyors . During this period, under the supervision of AJ Mashanova defended more than 25 candidates and doctors of technical sciences. AZ Mashanov the rest of his life not only taught at the Kazakh National Technical University . K.I. Satpayev , but also did a lot of research work. The most important achievement for Kazakhstan's science was the discovery of the great scholar Abu Nasir al-Farabi, who was our compatriot and was born in g.Otyrare , at one time being one of the major centers of the ancient culture of Kazakhstan and Central Asia. AZ Mashanov proved that culture and science of Kazakhstan originates works of al-Farabi , so named after the great scholar Abu Nasir al-Farabi forever remain in the history of science in our country. In the home library AZ Mashanova had a lot of books. One day after reading the book "Music Heaven" Johannes Kepler , he was convinced that all the facts and data were given in the book of al-Farabi , " Kitab al - Kabir al music " ( 2nd Great treatise on music ") in connection with this A.ZH . Mashanov in 1972 in the magazine " Al-Farabi" , which was issued in Kubeyte , published his article "Stars culture of Central Asia" and rightly proved their opinion. After that, many reviews devoted to this article , fully confirmed that "Mr. Al'Mashany was right ....... ". Since that time, it is believed that the great scientist for the Kazakh people opened A. Al'Mashany . Akzhanov Zhaksybekovichu definitely liked the new name " Al'Mashany " which was given by Arab scholars , and it is his books : " Geomechanics ", " Ai Arysi " sign as A. Al'Mashany . So AZ Mashanova called " Al-Farabi twentieth century." A. Al'Mashany was the first consultant to study the scientific heritage of al- Farabi and he initiated an international conference devoted to the 1100th anniversary of al-Farabi, was held in his native Kazakhstan (Almaty, 1978 ) . Abdurrahman Al - Mashani is the author of unique scientific and historical works , such as " On the study of heritage of al-Farabi ," " Aristotle East", " Great scholars of Central Asia and Kazakhstan", " Al-Farabi and Abai ", " On the transfer of the Kazakh language works of al-Farabi , "etc. A. Al'Mashany loved and interested in such subjects as history, philosophy , and science fiction and he published science fiction and non-fiction works ," Volcanism "," Earthquake "," secrets of the earth "," the hearth miraculous fire "," Taboo ", etc. In the Kazakh language he translated the works of al- Farabi University, VAObruchev and other eminent scientists. Along with the general problems of science and technology of great importance A. Al'Mashany attached importance to the academic literature in the Kazakh language . During the period of scientific activity of Al'Mashany published more than 200 scientific articles, 10 monographs, textbooks 5 and 8 of popular science publications . Huge contribution he made to the development of the theoretical foundations of mining science and research and teaching activities have been adequately evaluated public and the Government of Kazakhstan. He was awarded the Order of Lenin, the Red Banner, medals and diplomas of the Supreme Soviet of the Kazakh SSR . His name Akzhan Al'Mashany awarded naturally Humanitarian Institute at the Kazakh National Technical University named after KI Satpayev . Date approaches - 100 anniversary of the birth of Al'Mashany that UNESCO's decision included in the calendar of anniversaries worthy of this remarkable man .
