Abstract

Dr. Bekker reports on his in-depth study of the evolution of Russian research on terrain-vehicle systems. After reviewing some 3000 references to literature on the subject in the past 35 years, he selected about 450 books and papers for further study. He traces the evolution of Russian work, analyzes the methods and results, and discusses the influence that research in other countries had on these Russian efforts. He informs the reader of the current status of Russian research in this field, and compares it with the status of U. S. research.
