Anticipating Knowledge Applicability in Open Science Through Recycling, Mimicking, and Shortcutting
ABSTRACT Open science literature scrutinizes how organizations provide access to knowledge. Yet, much less is known about how organizations pursuing open science for societal impact anticipate knowledge applicability—that shared knowledge is reusable for other organizations and individuals, and enables open social innovation.

The Martyrdom of Nadezhda Kurchenko: Soviet Hero Cults and the Spiritual Turn in Late Socialism
Abstract This article argues that the spiritual turn in Soviet atheism under Brezhnev provided a meaningful solution to the problems of producing heroes when self‐sacrificing martyrs were losing their appeal. To support this claim, I examine the story of Nadezhda Kurchenko, a nineteen‐year‐old flight attendant killed by two hijackers on an Aeroflot ...

Efficient Temperature Control of Lithium‐Ion Battery Through an Ambient Cooling Model
There exists a long‐standing challenge on how to cool down the heat released from a lithium‐ion battery. Usually researchers adopted expensive techniques for battery cooling. This study attempts to propose an ambient cooling model using electrochemical and thermodynamic principles to address this issue. A standard lithium‐ion battery is used.
