Abstract:

Purpose This quantitative study aims to examine the impact of accumulated knowledge of accounting on the academic performance of Cost Accounting students. Design/methodology/approach The sample consisted of 89 students enrolled in the Accounting program run by a business college in Kuwait during 2015. Correlation and linear least squares regression analyses tested the study’s hypothesis. Findings Results indicated significant impact of accumulated knowledge on academic performance, with and without controls for other factors. Practical implications The findings provide administrators, academic advisors, accounting educators and researchers with a useful benchmark for the development of accounting curriculum, teaching plans and strategies and future academic research, and it forms the basis for comparative work aimed at the harmonization of international accounting education. Originality/value The study provides empirical support for the theoretical prediction that quantitative accumulated knowledge in accounting has an impact on the academic performance of students, especially in Cost Accounting. Internationally, it provides a foundation for future comparative studies, potentially leading to the harmonization of international accounting education. Regionally, it attempts to fill some of the gaps in the regional accounting education literature. Locally, the study seeks to improve the performance of the accounting students in Cost Accounting within the college where data were collected.

Abstract:

A Solar panel is rated such that it can yield optimum output under Standard Testing Conditions (STC). But due to different environmental factors the efficiency of the panel is reduced gradually after installation. Accumulation of dust on solar PV panel is one such natural phenomenon. When dust accumulates on the PV panel, the temperature of the cells increases which subsequently decreases the open circuit voltage. The short circuit current is also reduced as deposition of dust causes shading on the panel surface. As a result, the output power of the module decreases. In this paper, the effect of dust on the performance of the photovoltaic module has been studied. The increase in temperature due to dust accumulation has been visualized through the thermal camera and the reduction in power has been analyzed through PSpice simulation and experimental data for the different amount of dust accumulated.

Abstract:

To determine the effects of response–reinforcer arrangements on task performance and preference, participants completed tasks on accumulated and distributed response–reinforcer arrangements. Three males diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder completed tasks before receiving 5-min or 30-seconds access to a preferred stimulus. To enhance discrimination between the two arrangements, color-coded token boards were used to represent each arrangement. Responding was evaluated within a multielement design to compare the response rate across conditions for each participant. A preference assessment was conducted after the comparison to determine whether a preference for one of the arrangements emerged. All participants produced a higher rate of responding in the accumulated schedule of reinforcement.

Abstract:

The mediators underlying the putative benefits of remote ischemic preconditioning (IPC) on dynamic whole body exercise performance have not been widely investigated. Our objective was to test the hypothesis that remote IPC improves supramaximal exercise performance in National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I middle-distance runners by increasing accumulated oxygen deficit (AOD), an indicator of glycolytic capacity. A randomized sham-controlled crossover study was employed. Ten NCAA Division I middle-distance athletes [age: 21 ± 1 yr; maximal oxygen uptake (V̇o2max): 65 ± 7 ml·kg−1·min−1] completed three supramaximal running trials (baseline, after mock IPC, and with remote IPC) at 110% V̇o2max to exhaustion. Remote IPC was induced in the right arm with 4 × 5 min cycles of brachial artery ischemia with 5 min of reperfusion. Supramaximal AOD (ml/kg) was calculated as the difference between the theoretical oxygen demand required for the supramaximal running bout (linear regression extrapolated from ~12 × 5 min submaximal running stages) and the actual oxygen demand for these bouts. Remote IPC [122 ± 38 s, 95% confidence interval (CI): 94–150] increased ( P < 0.001) time to exhaustion 22% compared with baseline (99 ± 23 s, 95% CI: 82–116, P = 0.014) and sham (101 ± 30 s, 95% CI: 80–123, P = 0.001). In the presence of IPC, AOD was 47 ± 36 ml/kg (95% CI: 20.8–73.9), a 29% increase compared with baseline (36 ± 28 ml/kg, 95% CI: 16.3–56.9, P = 0.008) and sham (38 ± 32 ml/kg, 95% CI: 16.2–63.0, P = 0.024). Remote IPC considerably improved supramaximal exercise performance in NCAA Division I middle-distance athletes. Greater glycolytic capacity, as estimated by increased AOD, is a potential mediator for these performance improvements. NEW & NOTEWORTHY Our novel findings indicate that ischemic preconditioning enhanced glycolytic exercise capacity, enabling National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) middle-distance track athletes to run ~22 s longer before exhaustion compared with baseline and mock ischemic preconditioning. The increase in “all-out” performance appears to be due to increased accumulated oxygen deficit, an index of better supramaximal capacity. Of note, enhanced exercise performance was demonstrated in a specific group of in-competition NCAA elite athletes that has already undergone substantial training of the glycolytic energy systems.

Abstract:

[3H]Serotonin is accumulated by a specific set of amacrine cells in the rabbit retina. These cells also accumulate the neurotoxin, 5,7-dihydroxytryptamine, and show signs of necrosis within 4 h of in vivo exposure to the drug. Biochemical analysis of [3H]serotonin uptake reveal a sodium- and temperature-dependent, high affinity uptake system with a Km of 0.94 microM and Vmax of 1.08 pmol/mg protein/min. [3H]Tryptophan is also accumulated in rabbit retinal homogenates by a high affinity process. Accumulated [3H]serotonin is released in response to potassium-induced depolarization of intact, isolated retinas. In vitro binding studies of rabbit retinal homogenate membranes demonstrate specific sets of binding sites with characteristics of the postsynaptic serotonin receptor. These data strongly suggest that rabbit retina contains virtually all of the molecular components required for a functional serotonergic neurotransmitter system. The only significant difference between the serotonin system in rabbit retina and that in the well-established serotonin transmitter systems in nonmammalin retinas and in brains of most species is the relatively low concentration of endogenous serotonin in rabbit retinas, as demonstrated by high-performance liquid chromatography, histofluorescence, or immunocytochemistry.

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that ingestion of creatine monohydrate increases anaerobic exercise capacity, as reflected by the maximal accumulated oxygen deficit (MAOD). Subjects were assigned, double-blind, to placebo (PL, n = 12) or creatine (CR, n = 14) groups and ingested 5-g doses 4 times daily of artificial sweetener or artificially sweetened creatine monohydrate, respectively, for 5 days. On a separate day subjects exercised to exhaustion at 125%[Formula: see text]. After two familiarization trials, MAOD was again determined before treatment, after 5 days of PL or CR treatment, and 7 days later. MAOD increased after CR treatment from 4.04 ± 0.31 to 4.41 ± 034 L(p < .001) and remained elevated for another 7 days (4.31 ± 0.33, p < .001). Time to exhaustion also increased in CR from 130 ± 7 to 141 ± 7 s(p < .01) and remained increased for another 7 days (139 ± 8 s, p < .01). These data demonstrate that ingesting creatine monohydrate for 5 days increases the MAOD, and is likely to have an ergogenic effect on supramaximal exercise performance that persists for at least a week after treatment.

Abstract:

To reveal the succession procedure of microbial community in hybrid biological reactor (HBR), the molecular biological techniques of polymerase chain reaction-denaturing gel gradient electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE), cloning and sequencing and ﬂuorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) were applied. PCR-DGGE results showed that the microbial community accumulated in both suspended-growth and attached-growth biomasses. Proteobacteria was found to be the dominant genera of bacteria in the sludge. Denitrifying bacteria was found accumulated in the biofilms. FISH results showed that there were more nitrifying bacteria in the suspended-growth biomass than the attached-growth biomass, but less denitrifying bacteria in the former biomass.

Abstract:

In the late 1970s, Chinese industry was on the verge of collapse. Its high but erratic rate of growth since 1949 had been achieved by using ever-increasing amounts of labour and capital. Not only was industry operating inefficiently, but the output mix was inappropriate and inventories had accumulated to very high levels. However, the true state of affairs had been obscured by the political turmoil of the Cultural Revolution (1966–76) and the virtual disbanding of the State Statistical Bureau (SSB).

Full text

Abstract:

Since the pioneering work by Borgman, (for vertical walls), and Paape, (for rubble mound breakwaters) in the 50Â´s of the last century, the design of new breakwaters and rehabilitation of existing breakwaters can be based on lifecycle analysis targeting the optimum investment costs, including the construction costs, maintenance, repairs and demolition, costs, and downtime costs. The estimation of these costs is based on the performance criteria of each failure mode for the structural and hydraulic responses related to the design limit stages SLS and ULS, including both a physical measure and a probability of occurrence, ROM 0.0 and 1.0 (2000 and 2007) and PIANC 2017. To evaluate these costs including their uncertainty it is necessary to apply, (1) a spatial and temporal damage evolution model of each failure mode, (2) to define the interdependence between modes including the decision criteria when start to repair, and (3) to compute the costs depending on the real sea conditions, the strategy of construction and the available construction power. The main objective of this work is to present a methodology to estimate the probability distribution function of the investment costs in the useful life of the structure.

Abstract:

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to analyse the effect of an entrepreneur’s accumulated knowledge and firm’s innovation on the development of reputation in the early years of a new venture from a knowledge-based approach. Design/methodology/approach – The study proposes a model that is tested with a sample of 130 firms in non-high-tech industries from the Canary Islands (Spain) using structural equation modelling. Data were collected through a survey. Findings – This study provide interesting insights on the effect of reputation on the performance in new ventures, along with antecedents of the new firm’s reputation from the knowledge-based view. The findings confirm that innovation and prior knowledge play important roles in the development of reputation in the early years of a new venture and that reputation has a significant effect on the performance of a new firm. The entrepreneur’s stock of knowledge does not reveal itself as a significant determinant of innovation and knowledge creation in this context. Research limitations/implications – The entrepreneur’s accumulated knowledge should be seen as a valuable existing asset for a new venture, and innovation and knowledge creation can be used to develop core competencies in orientating the strategic direction of a new venture. Both elements become fundamental despite addressing non-high-tech industries. Practical implications – Entrepreneurs should be aware of the key role that the creation and the stock of knowledge play in the first years of company life and this research shows how significant this relationship with the initial reputation and performance of new venture in non-high-technology industries is. Originality/value – There is a relative scarcity of studies on reputation-building strategies in new entrepreneurial ventures, and the present study adopts an original knowledge-based perspective to shed new light on the analysis of reputation.

Abstract:

Most gas turbine performance analysis based diagnostic methods use the information from steady state measurements. Unfortunately, steady state measurement may not be obtained easily in some situations, and some types of gas turbine fault contribute little to performance deviation at steady state operating conditions but significantly during transient processes. Therefore, gas turbine diagnostics with transient measurement is superior to that with steady state measurement. In this paper, an accumulated deviation is defined for gas turbine performance parameters in order to measure the level of performance deviation during transient processes. The features of the accumulated deviation are analysed and compared with traditionally defined performance deviation at a steady state condition. A non-linear model based diagnostic method, combined with a genetic algorithm (GA), is developed and applied to a model gas turbine engine to diagnose engine faults by using the accumulated deviation obtained from transient measurement. Typical transient measurable parameters of gas turbine engines are used for fault diagnostics, and a typical slam acceleration process from idle to maximum power is chosen in the analysis. The developed diagnostic approach is applied to the model engine implanted with three typical single-component faults and is shown to be very successful.

Full text

Abstract:

This paper presents an overlapping block selection method to determine the dominant macroblock (MB) in multi-frame skipping transcoding to improve picture quality. A non-intra MB in a non-skipped frame should be predicted by a block in another non-skipped frame. The re-constructed motion vector (MV) between two non-skipped frames accumulates prediction error. As the number of frames between two non-skipped frames is increased, such prediction error, or called mismatch error, is also increased. To reduce the impact on the transcoding quality caused by the prediction error, we improve the traditional overlapping block selection method, and propose a most approximate overlapping block to help to determine a dominant MB. In the proposed method, the location of an overlapping block is calculated by adding the accumulated MVs and the position of the current MB. The accumulated MVs are not the real MVs for MBs but the approximate vectors for 16 × 16 overlapping blocks. Simulation shows that the proposed method has a higher performance than the traditional method.

The hysteretic behaviors of concrete filled steel tube columns under low cyclic loads were analyzed for verification the accumulated energy dissipation performance. The accumulated ductility coefficient influencing factors, such as slenderness ratio, axial compression ratio and sectional steel ratio, were analyzed. It is indicated that these columns have a better energy dissipation capacity. The energy dissipation capacity decreases with the axial compression ratio increasing, but the influence of slenderness ratio and steel ratio to accumulated ductility coefficient is not clear, this is because the influence of difference loading system.

Abstract:

Enduro mountain bike racing is composed of several timed predominantly downhill race stages linked by time restricted, non-competitive transition stages. This study aimed to 1) detail and compare the laboratory assessed physiological characteristics of elite and non-elite enduro mountain bike riders, and 2) evaluate the use of 10Hz global positioning systems (GPS) unit including a 100Hz triaxial accelerometer to define the demands of enduro mountain bike racing and identify components of successful performance. Eleven (n=11) male enduro mountain bike riders completed laboratory protocols for peak aerobic capacity (VO2peak), onset of blood lactate accumulation at 2 and 4 mmol/L (OBLA2 and OBLA4 respectively), intermittent sprint test (EST), and anthropometry measures. Participants were divided into elite (n=5) and non-elite (n=6) groups for analysis. Nine (n=9) elite enduro mountain bike athletes participated in field data collection at an international enduro mountain bike race. Two race stages were used for analysis of velocity, accumulated load, heart rate and time to complete specific sections of track calculated from GPS units placed on the bicycle seat mast and the rider’s torso. Elite athletes produced greater power during the EST and at VO2peak, OBLA2, OBLA4 when compared to non-elite riders (all p<0.05) with no significant differences in anthropometry (p>0.05). Accumulated load was significantly greater on the bicycle than the rider on both stages (p<0.05) and accumulated load in both locations was significantly higher during stage two compared to stage 1 reflecting differences in terrain (p<0.05). GPS analysis allowed detailed analysis of performance showing winning performances were characterised by reduced time to complete technical downhill and non-technical climbing sections during stage one and technical downhill sections only during stage two. In conclusion, successful performance in enduro mountain bike racing requires adequate skill and technique to sustain high velocities over technical terrain coupled with large aerobic and anaerobic capacities.

Abstract:

Potassium (K) is an essential nutrient in plant metabolism, ionic balance, and stress resistance. In this study, the effects of K on agronomic attributes and on mineral and primary metabolite content in African potato were determined. K was administered hydroponically at four concentrations (4.00, 6.00, 8.00, and 10.00 meq·L−1) using Steiner’s universal nutrient solution. Chlorophyll content (CHL), leaf area (LA), fresh corm mass (FCM), number of roots (NR), root fresh weight (RFM), and root dry mass (RDM) were measured 18, 32, and 40 weeks after transplanting. Mineral analysis data were collected at 18 weeks, and primary metabolite data were collected at 32 weeks. Significant effects of K were observed after 18 weeks, and all test concentrations had a positive effect on yield. Calcium and boron significantly accumulated in the corm at 4.00 meq·L−1 K. Alanine and malic acid were the only metabolites affected by K concentrations. More minerals accumulated in the corm at 4.00 meq·L−1 K, whereas at 10.00 meq·L−1 K, more minerals clustered in the leaf. K applied at 4.00 meq·L−1 is recommended when growing African potato using a nutrient solution to improve corm mineral and metabolite accumulation.

Abstract:

In this paper, we present an approach to improve estimation performance of GM(1,1) model. It consists of three stages in the GM(1,1) modeling: the preprocessing 1-AGO (first-order accumulated generating operation), first-order difference equation, and 1-IAGO (first-order inverse accumulated generating operation). Note that the solution of first-order difference equation is of exponential form. Therefore, it is assumed that the data after 1-AGO is of exponential-like form. However, in many cases the 1-AGO preprocessed data may not have an exponential-like form. Consequently, an inaccurate modeling results and thus poor performance for GM(1,1) model. Based on the observation, we replace the first-order difference equation in the GM(1,1) modeling with a polynomial to relieve the requirement of exponential-like form in the 1-AGO preprocessed data. By this doing, the estimation performance of GM(1,1) model is improved. Through examples, the proposed approach is justified. As expected, the simulation results indicate that the proposed approach outperforms the conventional GM(1,1) model in the given fitting and forecasting examples.

Abstract:

Abstract In this study, the contribution of pre-treatment basins of low impact development (LID) technologies to nutrient reduction performance was evaluated by understanding the distribution of nutrient in sediments accumulated in each system. The captured sediments were mostly silt to medium sand ranging from 9% to 92% of the sediments collected. Greater average N and P concentrations were found in silt particles amounting to 345 mg/kg and 696 mg/kg, respectively compared to sand and gravel. Although, N concentrations in accumulated sediments were found to be highly variable at different particle sizes (CV: 0.24 to 0.77) compared to P concentration (CV: 0.08 to 0.36) attributed to effective P treatment mechanism through deposition compared to complex nitrogen removal mechanisms. In addition, the difference between N and P concentrations of sediments collected in the pre-treatment basins of LID technologies and in-situ soil was attributed to the continuous pollutant input to the LID technologies during storm events. The study proved that pre-treatment basins of stormwater LID technologies reinforced the nutrient removal performances through sediment retention. The findings of this research may be used to design pre-treatment basins of LID technologies considering nutrients as a limiting factor.

Abstract:

<span>Photovoltaic (PV) modules have been becoming well-spread recently as alternative clean energy sources to traditional energy sources due to their efficiency and sustainability benefits. This paper applied various water temperatures and artificial dust levels to a couple of monocrystalline PV modules under outdoor conditions to observe their performance. Two different IV tracers were connected separately to each module for comparison purposes. Two temperature sensors were installed at the back of the panels to observe the cell temperatures. Besides, a temperature sensor was specified for ambient readings. Water flowed through an adjustable water-flow sensor to cool the overheated PV module using specific mass flow rates. The results indicate that the efficiency of the PV module starts to reduce when the panel temperature begins to surpass 49.1°C. It was discovered that cooling the PV module increases its efficiency from 0.97 percent at the lowest rate to 4.70 percent at the highest rate. Furthermore, accumulated dust on the PV module top surface can be reduced up to 3-fold under 110 g/m2 of dust, and up to 29.30% under 10 g/m<sup>2</sup> of 100% of its generated energy. Improvement techniques and future work on PV module performance are also discussed.</span>

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of acute caffeine ingestion on the maximal accumulated oxygen deficit (MAOD) and short-term running performance. Nine well-trained males performed a preliminary assessment and. at least 4 days later, a supramaximal run to exhaustion. Their VO2max values were determined, and the MAOD test at an exercise intensity equivalent to 125% VO2max was performed. Caffeine (5 mg ⋅ kg−1) or placebo was administered 1 hr prior to the MAOD in a double-blind, randomized cross-over study. In comparison to the placebo condition, subjects in the caffeine condition developed a significantly greater MAOD and increased their run lime to exhaustion. However, posl-MAOD blood lactate concentration ([HLa]) was not different between trials for caffeine and placebo. Caffeine ingestion can be an effective ergogenic aid for short-term, supramaximal running performance and can increase MAOD. However, these results do not appear to be related to an increased [HLa).

Abstract:

This paper describes a recent research study that examined how changes in design life affected the pavement life-cycle cost and ultimately how the reduction in or addition to life-cycle cost attributed to superior or inferior in-service performance could be used as a basis for establishing a pay factor for a performance-based specification. Previous models were developed with data from the Canadian Long-Term Pavement Performance Program, which indicated that overlay thickness, total prior cracking, annual freezing index, annual days with precipitation, and accumulated equivalent single-axle loads (ESALs) after 8 years affected the slope of pavement deterioration for asphalt overlay pavements. One of these models, as well as data from the U.S. Long-Term Pavement Performance test sites, is used to determine the service life of asphalt overlay pavements. This paper examines how the variability associated with overlay thickness, total prior cracking, and accumulated ESALs after 8 years affects the service life of asphalt overlay pavements. Furthermore, this paper considers the variability associated with the discount rate and incorporates all associated variability into the life-cycle cost analysis (LCCA). LCCA is performed by using Monte Carlo techniques. On the basis of a recent study, distributions for service life and life-cycle costs are developed by using both normal and lognormal distributions for overlay thickness. With the LCCA values for typical design lives, a sensitivity analysis is subsequently performed to evaluate the impact of 10%, 20%, and 30% differences in the in-service performance as compared to the design life. These LCCA differences are then used as a basis for establishing pay factors. Overall the paper attempts to relate design to in-service performance life-cycle cost and the ultimate use of pay factors.

Abstract:

The paper dwells on the tragic personality, the scapegoat, whose role is tied to the redemption of the people and cleansing of the land by metaphorically sacrificing himself during “““Olofun”gbogho””. This is another act in the fertility drama and it is instrumental in the regeneration of the land. The tragic hero is central to the cleansing, fertility and other allied ceremonies. The paper attempts an examination of the functions of the scapegoat during ““Olofun”gbogho”” and situates the tragic hero within a selfless desire to redeem the land from accumulated sins. The tool of analysis is aesthetics and the paper uncovers the underlying imperatives in the performance and situates them within art and the fulfilment of the people’s desire for entertainment.

Abstract:

This paper presents an analysis of the impact of delays, information management and type of demand, on the performance of a three echelons supply chain, based on the "beer game". Four scenarios of access to information on final demand for different members of the chain were developed over a system dynamics model. For each of these scenarios delivery delay times and type of demand were changed and four indicators were used to measure the supply chain performance: return on assets, accumulated income, accumulated value of inventory and service level. The results show that the location (echelon) of the access to information is critical to the performance and in contrast to previous studies, this effect is independent of the type of demand. Moreover, the results are consistent with previous studies on the positive effect of the reduction in delays on the overall performance of the chain, regardless of the type of demand.
