Pyotr Valentinovich Trusov (Пётр Валентинович Трусов; born 7 May 1948) is a Russian physicist whose main contributions are in the field of continuum mechanics. Pyotr Valentinovich Trusov was born in Lviv, Ukraine. In 1972 he graduated from Perm State Technical University (PSTU). On 14 February 1978 he defended dissertation for a Candidate of Science degree. On 27 February 1987, in Moscow State University, he defended dissertation for a degree of Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences. From 1988 to 1993 Trusov was dean of Faculty of Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Perm State Technical University. Since 1989 he was professor on Chair of Mathematical Modeling of Systems and Processes. Since 1992 he is head of chair. Pyotr Valentinovich Trusov was awarded by title of Honoured Scientist of Russian Federation. He is a corresponding member of Russian Academy of Natural Sciences. The main field of scientific interests of Pyotr Valentinovich Trusov is the mathematical modeling of mechanics of big elasto-plastic deformations, residual stress, micro- and mesomechanics of metals, crystallization of metals and alloys, mechanics of plastic processing of metals. The subjects of his scientific works are : “The research on the defining relations of inelastic deformation of metals, alloys, ceramic materials on macro- end mesolevel for complex load and big deformations. Building models of plastic working processes for mentioned material classes.” “Building models for crystallization of metals and alloys on different (micro-, meso- and macro-) scale levels, modeling of technological processes of casting.” On the research results 2 monographs, 14 methodical manuals and more than 110 papers were published. Pyotr Valentinovich Trusov shows teaching activity in PSTU on following branches: classical mechanics; tensor analysis; continuum mechanics; theory of plasticity; theory of defining relations. In 1972—1974 and 1978—1987 Trusov was member of Students Research Efforts Council of PSTU.
