From 1920 at State Optical Institute. Applied to photometric calculations field force theory and vector analysis methods which made it possible to produce a number of generalized formulas and perform calculations for non-homogeneous and diffuse media. Did much work on practical lighting technique, particularly development of theoretical methods and substantiation of light masking.
Also worked on underwater lighting, economics of natural lighting and development of spccialpurpose iliuminants.
