Abstract:
In this pilot study, we used a mixed methods online survey to ask science popularizers how gender harassment influences the way they communicate science to the public. Popularizers reported that gender harassment caused the science popularization field to increasingly strive for gender inclusivity in the creation of content. However, harassment made female popularizers feel they must emphasize their legitimacy, quite conscious of their clothing choices, and wary of engaging the public through mediums or topics that provoke more severe harassment. Implications for science communication and public engagement are discussed.

Abstract:
The article is devoted to the analysis of tools for popularization of technical sciences. The levels of public funding in the leading countries, as well as the number of popular science editions in the different countries of the world are considered. The objective of this article is to identify the factors of science development, taking into account the number of popular science periodicals, the level of English language proficiency as well as the level of research funding in these countries; to analyze the number of popular science editions in general and to single out the periodicals of exactly technical nature in order to have a broader understanding of the ways of science popularization among young audiences; to trace the relationship between promotion of science and science level in general. To achieve this objective, the methods of analysis of documentary information, as well as the method of generalization were used. The dependence of the level of development of science on the level of its state funding and the number of popular science editions has been proved. Popularization is necessary for further development of science in Ukraine and involvement of young people to enter technical educational institutions, which will increase the level of science and economy in the country.

As ferramentas da Web 2.0, como os Weblogs, foram adotadas pelos interagentes de identidade física e/ou jurídica do ambiente da internet para fazer divulgação científica dos resultados desenvolvidos em pesquisas nacionais e internacionais. Nessa ferramenta, pesquisadores, jornalistas e outros divulgadores da ciência assumem a identidade de blogueiro. A comunicação gerada nos Weblogs é caracterizada pelo seu aspecto de fácil publicação e acesso e apropriação por qualquer indivíduo que tem acesso a ferramenta, sendo assim necessário perceber a forma que a ciência tem sido divulgada na blogosfera, identificando seu alcance diante de outros pesquisadores e dos visitantes não letrados cientificamente. Essa pesquisa de método indutivo e de objetivo exploratório adotou como objeto de estudo o Scienceblogs Brasil, condomínio de blogs de ciência formado por blogueiros brasileiros. A proposta teórica da pesquisa fundamentou os blogs a partir do conceito de autopoiese proposto por Niklas Luhmann, sendo o objeto tratado como um subsistema autopoiético da rede mundial de computadores, sendo esta última entendida como ambiente dos blogs. Para estudar as relações sociais que são formadas nos blogs de ciência, foi discutido e aplicado o conceito de capital cientifico de Pierre Bordieu, identificando-o nos processos relacionais existentes entre blogueiro e visitante desse espaço digital, no qual as informações de ciência são vistas como elemento que dá projeção ao trabalho do pesquisador. E ainda, para avaliar a qualidade das informações que são publicadas e circulam na blogosfera cientifica, foram adotados os critérios propostos por Tomáel at al, os quais identificam os elementos necessários para a confiabilidade das informações publicadas. As conclusões obtidas após a análise dos dados apontam a necessidade de se fazer uso da ferramenta em um formato colaborativo, de acordo com sua essência, apropriando-se ainda das possibilidades educativas pertencentes ao blog, no qual a ciência torna-se parte da realidade do visitante leigo nos temas publicados, cumprindo efetivamente a proposta de divulgação da ciência.

Abstract:
In this thesis I will argue that popularized science books should adhere to normative criteria regarding the presentation, interpretation, and understanding of the natural sciences. The increasing popularity of popular science texts (PSTs) - based on sales, critical notice, and scholarly attention - indicates that they can function to interest and partially educate the lay public in scientific principals and practices. I will identify and analyze the narrative, rhetorical features of two popular science texts: Douglas Adams' Last Chance to See and Alan Lightman's Einstein's Dreams. These texts are selected based on a series of normative criteria, criteria constructed for the purpose of enhancing the public understanding of science. Additionally, these criteria are needed to help the lay public develop a proper appreciation of science. A proper appreciation of science, I argue, enables people to make better informed decisions regarding their own personal welfare and also that of the natural world. Finally, a proper appreciation of science, stimulated by PSTs, may help both scientists and the lay public reconceive the possibilities of narrative, public writing, and civic discourse.

Abstract:
There has been relatively little historical analysis of the life and work of Hayim Zelig Slonimski (1810-1904), the foremost popularizer of the sciences in the Eastern European Jewish Enlightenment movement. Initially inspired by the rationalist trend and discussion of scientific matters in the classical Jewish religious sources, he succeeded in linking these traditionally sanctioned modes of thought to the burgeoning field of nineteenth century science.
Slonimski thought that the dissemination of scientific knowledge among the traditionalist Jewish readership would strengthen their commitment to rationalism and the belief in progress, fundamental principles of liberalism, and thus facilitate the secularization and modernization of Eastern European Jewry. He was eminently successful in his strategy of using the holy tongue, Hebrew, to popularize modern science among his traditional readers. His periodical Ha-Tsefirah (The Herald) represents a significant and unique contribution to the advancement of the Jewish Enlightenment's program among Eastern European Jewry.

Abstract:
This thesis explores how the complex interplay between gender and technology significantly shaped the popularization of commercial aviation in the United States during the 1920s and 30s. As technological innovations improved both the safety and efficiency of airplanes during the early part of the twentieth century, commercial aviation industries increasingly worked to position flight as a viable means of mass transportation. In order to win the trust and money of potential passengers, however, industry proponents recognized the need to separate flight from its initial association with danger and masculine strength by convincing the general public of aviation’s safety and reliability. My work examines the efforts made by industry executives, pilots, and popular news sources to remake the public image of flight by specifically positioning women—as pilots, wives, and mothers—as central to the popularization of commercial aviation. More specifically, this thesis investigates the ways in which female popularizers of commercial aviation effectively mediated the boundaries between technologies and society, and how women’s positions as technological boundary workers often required them to redefine the social meanings and expectations of their gender.

Abstract:
Statistical process monitoring and control has been popularized throughout the manufacturing industry as well as various other industries interested in improving product quality and reducing costs. Advances in this field have focused primarily on more efficient ways for diagnosing faults, reducing variation, developing robust design techniques, and increasing sensor capabilities. System level advances are largely dependent on the introduction of new techniques in the listed areas. A unique system level quality control approach is introduced in this paper as a means to integrate rapidly advancing computing technology and analysis methods in manufacturing systems. Inspired by biological systems, the developed framework utilizes immunological principles as a means of developing self-healing algorithms and techniques for manufacturing assembly systems. The principles and techniques attained through this bio-mimicking approach will be used for autonomous monitoring, detection, diagnosis, prognosis, and control of station and system level faults, contrary to traditional systems that largely rely on final product measurements and expert analysis to eliminate process faults.

Abstract:
Nuclear safety law and regulation related to the field of public acceptance and nuclear education of nuclear power (NP) is in blank, which seriously restricts the sustainable development of nuclear energy. In order to make up for nuclear safety legal system in the field of public acceptance of nulcear power plant (NPP) and education of NP and related fields, this paper provides data and gives some advice. The investigation used a random sample survey method to made a field survey of 301 people living near inland NPP. In this survey, 55.48% of people are concerned about NPPs development in their daily life, 73.09% of people support the development of NPPs, 63.79% of people are against NPPs built in the vicinity of their own, 30.90% of people think that NPPs is safe, 76.08% of people worry about the harmful impact on the surrounding residents, 81.06% of people know and learn the knowledge of NP by television and internet, 19.93% of people know the related knowledge of NP by government propaganda. In conclusion, most of people support and pay attention to the development of inland NPP, but they do not have a deep understanding of nuclear safety so they do not fully accept the inland NPP. It is suggested that we should increase information publicity of public network, promote popular science propaganda about NPP by government, improve nuclear safety laws and regulations, and strengthen the study on the psychological mechanism of public NP. If we can do all of this, it will help to improve the development of inland NPP Using the internet and television popularizes the NPP Invite officials from the site of the new NPP station and the relevant people in the surrounding regions to visit the NPP which has been built and participate in nuclear safety related knowledge training. Speeding up the process of “nuclear safety” law and perfecting the laws and regulations for protecting the safety and rights of public.

Abstract:
Condensing boiler for flue gas waste heat recovery is widely used in industries. In order to gain a portion of the sensible heat and latent heat of the vapor in the flue gas, the flue gas is cooled by return water of district heating through a condensation heat exchanger which is located at the end of flue. At low ambient air temperature, some boilers utilize the air pre-heater, which makes air be heated before entering the boiler, and also recovers part of the waste heat of flue gas. However, there are some disadvantages for these technologies. For the former one, the low temperature of the return water is required while the utilization of flue gas heat for the latter one is very limited. A new flue gas condensing heat recovery system is developed, in which direct contact heat exchanger and absorption heat pump are integrated with the gas boiler to recover condensing heat, even the temperature of the return water is so low that the latent heat of vapor in the flue gas could not be recovered directly by the general condensing technologies. Direct contact condensation occurs when vapor in the flue gas contacts and condenses on cold liquid directly. Due to the absence of a solid boundary between the phases, transport processes at the phase interface are much more efficient and quite different from condensation phenomena on a solid surface. Additionally, the surface heat exchanger tends to be more bulky and expensive. In this study, an experimental platform of the new system is built, and a variety of experimental conditions are carried out. Through the analysis of the experimental data and operational state, the total thermal efficiency of the platform will be increased 3.9%, and the system is reliable enough to be popularized.
