Each scientific community is characterized, first of all, by the presence of scientific schools. The main features and essential characteristics of the scientific school are:- the presence of a leader, founder of a scientific school that has been developing “teaching creativity” for many years and carrying out “reproducibility” of the scientific community;- the presence of the author's research program, which carries out scientific work, as well as the formation of the scientific community and the education of like-minded people;- intensive (formal and informal) communication between the plans of the scientific team, the formation on this basis of a special style of interpersonal relations, norms and standards of scientific research. This article is a review of the accumulated material (including the opinions of famous people in the world) about the professional life of scientists. It highlights current issues of cognition of the research method as an important aspect of the culture of thinking of the scientific community. The conditions for successful development of the relationship of the supervisor and the applicant's degree are analyzed. Considerable attention is paid to the problem of expectation and attention in the process of scientific research.

Superplastic forming of a three-sheet structure is considered. The focus is on overcoming the main disadvantages of the process of manufacturing of such structures by means of the SPF/DB technique including high temperatures of treatment and the formation of folds on the outer surface of the article manufactured. The application of ultrafine-grained sheets of titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V has been analyzed in order to avoid these disadvantages. Various combinations of the use of ultrafine-grained and microcrystalline sheets as skin and core sheets are considered by means of the finite element analysis. The standard power law of superplasticity is used for analysis with material constants determined from technological experiments. The conclusion is made that the most attractive way appears to be the usage of ultafine-grained material for the core sheet and microcrystalline material for the skin sheets.
