In the early years of ImperialMoscow Technical School (IMTS), the course of Thermodynamics and Steam Engines was lectured by the academic staff of its Applied Mechanics Department. Their research task was to trace Grinevetsky's career as a scientist and his relations with the Department of Applied Mechanics. This article describes the results of such research efforts. © Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2013.
