[edit] cyrillic 'X'

Folks, JFYI, his name is Russian: Хренников (from Russian: хрен, horse-radish, Cochlearia armoracia) which is (phonetically) transiterated as "Khrennikov"... Well, the "off-for-ov" replacement is quite common. --jno 08:36, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

I wonder if this statement "Works of Alexander Hrennikoff are often considered as an inspiration for the late Stephen Timoshenko who further advanced the applied methods of structural analysis" can be verified, because, IMHO, S. Timoshenko precedes A. Hrennikoff in terms of age, schooling as well as of publications. TVBZ28 04:09, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
My mixup, it is dangerous to do some bug fixing in a FEM code for my employer and research for wikipedia at the same time. I was trying to figure out, when Hrennikoff emigrated. Search on Hrennikoff and emigrated gives, In 1922 he emigrated to the US, first working at the Westinghouse ... influenced by Hrennikoff and McHenry “framework analogy” of the 1940s [20,21].. By brief looking inside one will find that the he is Timoshenko. Of course influenced by Hrennikoff is unrelated to Timoshenko. I am sorry. Still do not know when Timoshenko emigrated.abakharev 06:01, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
