From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

VINITI Database RASis a database provided by theAll-Russian Institute for Scientific and Technical Information(VINITI). The database is devoted to scientific publications. It is described as a large abstracting database. In general, it is indexed for thenatural sciences,exact sciences,andtechnical sciences.Included in this database is AJ (Abstract Journal), indexed from 1981 to the present day.[1][2][3]

Thedatabaseis made up of published materials encompassing,conference proceedings,trade publications,thesis,periodicals,books,patents,regulatory documents,and collectedscientific literature.Russian sources make up 30% of the deposited scientific works. The database producesdocumentsthat have abibliographaldescription,keywords,a heading and anabstract.Primary sourceabstracts are mostly inRussian.[1]

Another organizational structure of theVINITI databaseis its divisions into 29thematicfragments. Also, there are over 230 editions of this database. A single Polythematic database was added in 2001, which is able to combine all the thematic fragments, except for "Mathematics".In addition, the thematic fragment,"Chemistry",is updated two times per month.[1]

Deposited scientific works

[edit]

This separate edition contains the "Bibliographic Index".The bibliographic index contains bibliographic descriptions of scientific papers, deposited at VINITI RAS and industry centers.[7]

Thematic fragments

[edit]

The 29 thematic fragments, mentioned above, are broad subject fields (categories) such as the following:

  • Automation and electronics AB 1981
  • Astronomy AU 1989
  • Biology BI 1981
  • Computational Science
  • Engineering MN 1981
  • Medicine MD 1998
  • Metallurgy MT 1981
  • Physics FI 1983[1]

Subcategories

[edit]

These broad subject fields are each further divided into subfields. For example, Astronomy (Au) encompasses:

  • AS01 Astronomy (51)
Retrospective from 1989
This subfield includes ordinary inquiries involvingastronomy.Moreover, this subfield includes theoretical aspects ofastronomyandcelestial mechanics.Methods of astronomical observations, along withobservatories,instruments, and devices are categorized here. This subfield also indexes documents related to the following:Sun,Solar System,Star,Nebulae,Interstellar medium,andCosmology.Also:AstrometryandAstron.[8]
  • AS03 Study of Earth from space (73)
Retrospective from 1989
This subfield includes general issues in Earth observation such as the physical, geometric, geodynamic framework of Earth from space, along with methods and tools for studies of Earth from space. Documents from research programs and papers concerning their objectives are indexed in this subfield. Papers pertaining to the space systems of earth, and documents which place space information under the purview of the Earth Sciences and economic sectors are available in this subfield. Economics and cost-effectiveness studies of the Earth from space are part of this subfield.[8]
  • AS02 Surveying and aerial photography (52)
Retrospective from 1989
This subfield includes ordinary inquiries involvingGeodesyandCartography.Moreover, this subfield includes theoretical studies of Geodesy. The subfield also indexes the following: Geodetic Astronomy, Space geodesy, Gravimetry, and geodetic methods for solving geodynamic problems. The results of geodetic measurements are given mathematical interpretations. Surveying Instruments, and their study are also included.[8]
This subfield also includes documents about studying and mapping the Moon's size, shape, surface topography, and its gravitational and magnetic fields. In other words, determining by observation and measurement, the exact positions of points and the figures and areas of large portions of the Moon's surface, or the shape and size of the Moon, i.e., "Selenodesy".These methods are applied to other planets as well.[8][9]
  • AS04 Space exploration (62)
Retrospective from 1989
This subfield includes ordinary inquiries involving space exploration.[8]
