Research on the developmental trajectory and historical characteristics of metrology in russia

Metrology, as the science of precise measurement, serves as a crucial foundation for technological development and social production. The evolution of metrology in Russia has traversed three distinct stages: the formation of the traditional system of weights and measures in Ancient Rus, the establishment of modern scientific metrology, and the development of a comprehensive modern standardized metrological system. This trajectory reflects a developmental path characterized by both unique national features and robust scientific connotations. By systematically examining the unit systems and application characteristics of ancient Russian weights and measures, analyzing Mendeleev's foundational contributions to modern Russian metrology, and elucidating the institutional framework and current development status of contemporary Russian metrology, this paper explores the historical patterns and core features of Russia's metrological development. This study aims to provide a reference for the advancement of China's metrological endeavors and international metrological exchange.
