R&D in Institutions of the Division for Physics and Technology Problems of Power Engineering of the NAS of Ukraine in 2010—2015: Results of Monitoring

Abstract

Results of monitoring of finished R&D in research institutions of the Division for Physics and Technology Problems of Power Engineering of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) of Ukraine, covering 2010–2015, are given for 10 R&D fields in comparison with previous periods, by indicators of R&D themes, financing, publications. The sources of data from monitoring are reports of the research institutions incorporated in the above Division. The principal objective of the monitoring is collection and grouping of data required for elaborating the acceptable criteria for evaluating R&D results in institutions of the NAS of Ukrain, and analysis of their change in the period under study. The monitoring shows that although reduction in the R&D financing cut the number of R&D themes performed in the period under study, the R&D effectiveness measured by numbers of scientific publications so far remained unaffected.
