Nikita Nikolayevich Moiseyev (Russian: Никита Николаевич Моисеев) (23 August 1917 – 29 February 2000) was aSoviet andRussianmathematician, full member of theSoviet and Russian Academies of Sciences and of the International Academy of Science, Munich.
Moiseyev studied inMoscow State University, and received his doctor's degree from theSteklov Institute. He taught inBauman Moscow State Technical University andRostov State University after the war, and was appointed professor inMoscow Institute of Physics and Technology (1956) and became its dean in the department of applied mathematics. His fields of study includedapplied mathematics, solid state dynamics in liquids, systems analysis, control of the artificial space objects, dynamics of biosphere and its stability (including consequences of nuclear war — "nuclear winter"). Since 1956 till his death he also worked at theDorodnicyn Computing Centre. He organized the Russian Section ofGreen Cross International and became its first President. Nominating him for the 1994 Global 500 Roll of HonourUNEP stated: "He is a member of theRussian Academy of Sciences, whose spectrum of interests and activities brought him from computing military missile trajectories tomathematical modelling of the pernicious effects of a large scalenuclear war, to his current involvement in environmental activities aimed at protecting future generations."
