Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to develop a model that can be used as a guide for the provision, adaptation and management of on-campus student accommodation spaces and services. Design/methodology/approach A phenomenological research strategy was used for the study. Qualitative data were collected by means of focus group discussions (FGDs) and observations. A total of ten FGDs were conducted. The student accommodations were observed to augment the information gathered through the FGDs. The data was analysed thematically. Findings The study found that students perceived some spaces and services as essential, whereas others were perceived as nonessential. Spaces including washroom, sleeping space, kitchen, laundry area and dry line, sick bay, computer area and study area, as well as services such as electricity, water, security, fire safety, internet, study furniture, health care, generators, electric fittings, ventilation, maintenance, pest control, refuse collection and cleaning were perceived as the most essential spaces and services required in student accommodations. It also became evident that apart from the spaces and services aforementioned, a student accommodation should also be provided with spaces and services that promote students’ well-being and leisure. Practical implications The model can be used as a guide by estate, facility, maintenance and hostel managers to effectively manage on-campus university student accommodation spaces and services. Moreover, the model can assist to ensure that all spaces and services perceived as essential are provided when designing, constructing or upgrading student accommodations. Originality/value Although several studies have been conducted on student accommodations, studies that mainly focused on identifying and prioritising the spaces and services required in student accommodations is lacking.

Abstract:
Agritourism is not a new phenomenon; moreover, it has increased significantly over the past decade and is expected to continue growing in the future. Despite this growth, there is no shared understanding of agritourism, which is problematic because it creates confusion and diminishes its appeal among consumers, thereby impeding communication and collaboration between stakeholders. Agritourism activities can be carried out on a microscale in rural areas by families and agricultural practitioners or on a large scale by hotels, restaurants, and catering firms. Despite many developing countries’ agricultural potential, agritourism has not been inserted into development plans in these countries. Only agritourism in small accommodation enterprises is carried out on a microscale by rural families. This study seeks to test the relationship between the positive impacts of peer-to-peer (P2P) accommodation and agritourism performance, with the mediating effects of support for P2P accommodations and organizational citizenship behavior towards P2P accommodations. The data were derived from 300 Airbnb consumers and hosts of agritourism accommodations in the eastern province of the kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). The results of “Structural Equation Modeling” (SEM) via the “Partial least squares” (PLS) showed a positive direct relationship between peer-to-peer accommodation and agritourism performance with a significant mediating role of Organizational Citizenship Behavior and a positive moderating role of information on Agritourism destinations. Several theoretical and practical implications are discussed.

Abstract:
This paper deals with the analysis of data retrieved from a web page for booking accommodation. The main idea of the research is to analyze the relationship between accommodation factors and customer reviews in order to determine the factors that have the greatest influence on customer reviews. Machine learning methods are applied to the collected data and models that can predict the review category for those accommodations that are not evaluated by users are trained. The relationship between certain accommodation factors and classification accuracy of the models is examined in order to get detailed insight into the data used for model training, as well as to make the models more interpretable. The classification accuracy of each model is tested and the precision and recall of the models are examined and compared.

Abstract:
Sensor in-range fault accommodation is a fundamental challenge of dual channel control systems in modern aircraft gas turbine engines. An on-board, real-time engine model can be used to provide an analytical third sensor channel that may be used to detect and isolate sensor faults. A fuzzy-logic-based accommodation approach is proposed that enhances the effectiveness of the analytical third channel in the control system’s fault isolation and accommodation scheme. Simulation studies show the fuzzy accommodation scheme to be superior to current accommodation techniques.

Abstract:
The characteristics of social media and its interactivity propelled it to become an eminent medium of marketing for most business organisations, including SMEs. However, SMEs in the hospitality and tourism industry, such as budget accommodations, hardly utilise social media as their marketing medium. Thus, this study investigates factors influencing budget accommodation owners in utilising social media as their marketing medium since digital promotion remains underexplored in SMEs. The current study adopts an expanded research model consisting of the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and Innovation Diffusion Theory (IDT), where 300 respondents were selected and assessed using the convenience sampling technique. An analysis of Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) was employed to test the research model. Research analysis revealed that the exogenous constructs refer to the internal factor, while external and technology factors jointly explained 71.6% variance of the endogenous construct of social media acceptance. External and technological factors positively and significantly affect social media marketing acceptance among budget accommodation. However, internal factors show insignificant effects. The analysis of mediating effects illustrated that technological factors greatly mediate both internal and external factors on social media marketing acceptance among budget accommodation. In conclusion, the findings of this study provide useful insights into the perspectives of budget accommodation owners in social media marketing, which indirectly contributes to the development of the nation’s tourism industry and economic growth. Keywords: SMEs, budget accommodation, social media acceptance, TAM, IDT.

Abstract:
The goal of this project is to obtain quantitative images of the lens and the ciliary body to validate EVAS-II (Second generation Ex Vivo Accommodation Simulator). To accomplish this goal it was necessary to develop methods, instrumentation and image processing techniques to acquire 3D images in EVAS-II, using UBM (Ultrasound Bio Microscope), and to apply these techniques to non-human primate eyes. The lens studies included measurement of speed of sound in the lens to reconstruct accurate images of the lens, development of instrumentation to measure the un-distorted lens shape and development of a mathematical model to quantify the whole lens shape. Speed measurements showed that the speed of sound exhibits a gradient profile in the equatorial plane, similar to refractive index and protein distributions in the lens. Lens shape measurements showed that the UBM can be used to accurately measure thickness, diameter, cross-sectional area, volume and surface area of the lens. The ciliary body studies included development of instrumentation and algorithms to obtain 3-D images of tissue in EVAS-II and development of methodology to quantify ciliary body movement during stretching. Studies showed that the accommodation process in young baboon eyes in EVAS-II is comparable to the in vivo process in rhesus monkeys. The UBM can be used to obtain reliable quantitative information about the lens and the ciliary body. 3-D UBM enables monitoring of ciliary body motion of the entire accommodative apparatus.

Abstract:
This thesis deals with different types of uncertainty in various macroeconomic contexts and investigates ways in which these can be accommodated by adopting flexible techniques that allow a robust inference in estimation, testing and prediction. This thesis covers a wide range of aspects in macroeconomic analysis, including the choice of an appropriate unit root test, inference when the presence of breaks and the autocorrelation properties of data are unknown, characterisation of inflation dynamics when structural and specification uncertainty are present, as well as model uncertainty in forecasting when real-time data are available. Chapter 1 presents the general motivations and describes the main research objectives and methodology for each chapter, providing a thesis outline at the same time. Chapter 2 examines the behaviour of OLS-demeaned/ detrended and GLS-demeaned/ detrended unit root tests that employ stationary covariates in situations where the magnitude of the initial condition of the time series under consideration may be nonnegligible. We show that the asymptotic power of such tests is very sensitive to the initial condition; OLS- and GLS- based tests achieve relatively high power for large and small magnitudes of the initial condition, respectively. Combining information from both types of test via a simple union of rejections strategy is shown to effectively capture the higher power available across all initial condition magnitudes. In Chapter 3, we consider a two-step procedure for estimating level break size(s) when the presence of the structural break(s) is uncertain and when the order of integration of the data is unknown. In other words, we deal with uncertainty over the appropriate filtering of the data, as well as structural uncertainty over the existence of a break. Our approach is motivated by the well known interplay between the unit roots and structural changes: Evidence in favour of unit roots can be a manifestation of structural changes and vice versa. The proposed procedure is shown to exhibit substantial accuracy gains in estimating the level break-size and breakpoint. Chapter 4 provides a characterisation of U.S. inflation dynamics within a generalised Phillips Curve framework that accommodates uncertainties about the duration a given Phillips Curve holds and the specification of the relationship, in addition to parameter and stochastic uncertainties accommodated within a typical Phillips Curve analysis. Our approach is based on an innovative method to deal with such uncertainties based on Bayesian model averaging techniques. Employing data for the U.S. in the period 1950q1- 2012q4, the estimated version of the "meta" Phillips Curve provides an interesting characterisation of inflation dynamics which is in accordance with a number of distinguished studies. Chapter 5 investigates the extent to which nowcast and forecast performance is enhanced by the use of real-time datasets that incorporate past data vintages and survey data on expectations in addition to the most recent data. The paper proposes a modelling framework and evaluation procedure which allow a real-time assessment and a final assessment of the use of revisions and survey data judged according to a variety of statistical and economic criteria. Both survey data and revisions data are found to be important in calculating density forecasts in forecasting the occurrence of business cycle events. Through a novel "fair bet" exercise, it is shown that models that incorporate survey and/or revisions data achieve higher profits in decision-making. The analysis also highlights the need to focus on future growth and inflation dynamics relevant to decision-makers rather than relying on simple point forecasts.

Abstract:
The vergence and accommodation systems, which are examples of physiological control systems, enable us to acquire and maintain clear single images of objects at a variety of distances in our visual world. Vergence and accommodation systems are interact with one each other and have both visual and non-visual components thus adding to their complexity. This thesis reviews the evolution of control theory models of vergence and accommodation from the 1960's to the present day and has outlined several properties of the systems which require further study. The thesis introduces the concept of Fuzzy Logic Control (FLC) to models of oculomotor control. FLC offers a new approach to modelling natural control systems and produces more realistic models than those obtained using conventional control theory techniques. Several characteristics of the vergence and accommodation systems were investigated with the aim of incorporating experimental data into control theory models using conventional techniques and FLC. The accommodation response to anisometropic stimuli was measured objectively. No evidence of a non-consensual response was found, from which it can be concluded that accommodation is consensual. A control theory model of binocular accommodation was simulated to illustrate the control strategies adopted by the accommodation during anisometropic stimulation. A Virtual Reality (VR) stimulus was used to investigate the possibility of adaptation of the crosslink components of vergence and accommodation by placing different demands on the vergence and accommodation systems. Crosslink behaviour was altered as a result of the VR stimulus which suggests that the links between vergence and accommodation (accommodative vergence and vergence accommodation) are amenable to adaptation. Control theory models were used to illustrate the effects of the VR stimulus on vergence and accommodation. The effect of proximity was investigated by measuring accommodation responses in the presence and absence of proximal cues. The effect of proximal cues under closed loop conditions was found to be minimal which suggests that proximal cues are only effective when visual cues are reduced. The results were extended to include the vergence system and a FLC model of proximal vergence and accommodation was implemented. Simulation of the model produced similar findings to a previous study which supports the use of FLC in models of oculomotor control. Voluntary vergence and accommodation were measured objectively under open loop conditions in a group of naive subjects. All subjects were able to produce voluntary responses corresponding to near and far. The ability of subjects to distinguish intermediate distances was more varied. The results show that voluntary responses can be produced without training and it is suggested that voluntary vergence and accommodation may be an important mode of response. The results were included in a control model of voluntary vergence and accommodation using FLC. The work presented provides support for the use of Fuzzy Logic in models of oculomotor control which can be used to improve models and complement existing models using conventional techniques.

Abstract:
Language use and communicative behaviors are important indicators of sojourners' adjustment. The current research was conducted to understand international students' communication behavior on Facebook during their adjustment period in the US and its relationship to the students' acculturative attitude (identification with heritage and mainstream culture), current psychological adjustment level, socio-cultural adaptation level, and target audience on Facebook. Two main theories provided the theoretical framework of the study: Giles' communication accommodation theory (1973) and Berry's acculturation model (1984). Snowball and convenience samples were used to recruit 178 international students from different universities across the US. A mixed approach of online survey and content analysis was used to test the hypotheses and research questions. The results showed that during the stay in the US, international students accommodate their language and topic choice towards their American peers on Facebook. Particularly, it was found that language accommodation levels increase as the students' length of stay in the US increases. The results also demonstrate that international students use Facebook mainly to communicate with friends who reside in the US. When students had higher levels of mainstream identification, they were likely to target American friends as their audience on Facebook and thus have more language and topic accommodation. Additionally, acculturation attitude (heritage and mainstream identification) predicted the students' language accommodation level. Lastly, the study showed that there is a positive relationship between language accommodation and sociocultural adjustment. The findings of the study not only expand the scope of communication accommodation theory and acculturation model, but also enhance understanding of international students' online communication patterns, their purposes, and practical consequences upon their adjustment in the US. This is important because it can be useful in finding ways to improve the students' experience in the US.

Abstract:
Cette thèse est consacrée à l'étude des écoulements de gaz raréfiés à travers divers micro-conduits de type circulaire et rectangulaire dans des conditions isotherme et stationnaire. L'objectif de la thèse est de contribuer à l'étude de l'interaction gaz-surface notamment en déterminant le coefficient d'accommodation de la quantité de mouvement pour différent matériaux de surface (Or, Silice, Acier inoxydable et Sulfinert) associés à différents types de gaz (hélium, azote, argon et dioxyde-de-carbone). Afin d'atteindre cet objectif, on adopte un triple point de vue : expérimental, théorique et numérique. L'aspect expérimental est réalisé par des mesures de débit massique à travers les micro-conduits, en utilisant la méthode dite « à volume constant ». L'aspect théorique original est développé à travers une nouvelle approche basée sur la résolution de l'équation de Stokes. Cette approche a permis d'écrire une expression analytique de débit massique en régime de glissement, qui prenne en compte les effets bidimensionnels dans une section de conduit rectangulaire. Cette approche complètement explicite, est conduite au deuxième ordre. Enfin l'aspect numérique permet de calculer le débit massique, en régimes transitionnel et moléculaire libre, en résolvant numériquement l'équation cinétique BGK linéarisée. La comparaison des mesures de débit massique avec l'équation analytique, en régime de glissement, ou avec les calculs numériques, en régimes transitionnel et moléculaire libre, nous a permis de déduire des coefficients de glissement et les coefficients d'accommodation correspondant à chaque couple gaz-surface dans tous les régimes de raréfaction
This thesis is devoted to the study of rarefied gas flows through micro-channels of various cross sections (circular and rectangular) under isothermal and stationary conditions. The objective of this thesis is to contribute to the study of gas-surface interaction by determining the tangential momentum accommodation coefficient for different surface materials (gold, silica, stainless steel and Sulfinert) and associated to various gases (helium, nitrogen, argon and carbon-dioxide). To achieve this goal three aspects are considered: experimental, theoretical and numerical. The experimental aspect is considered by measuring the mass flow rate through microchannels using the constant volume technique. The theoretical aspect is considered by the development of a new approach based on the Stokes equations. This approach yields to the analytical expression of the mass flow rate in the slip regime, which takes into account the second order effects. The last aspect, numerical, is considered by the numerical simulations of the mass flow rate in the transitional and free molecular flow regimes by solving the linearized BGK kinetic model. The comparison between the measured mass flow rates and the analytically expressions in the slip regime or with the results of numerical simulations in the transitional and free molecular regimes enabled to deduce the tangential momentum accommodation coefficients corresponding to each pair gas-surface in all flow regimes

Full text
Abstract:
The human crystalline lens is a complex, inhomogeneous and dynamic optical element which enables the eye to adjust focus in a process known as accommodation. Age related changes in the optical and mechanical properties of the lens cause a loss in accommodative ability leading to a condition known as presbyopia. Several experimental surgical techniques are under development for the correction of presbyopia. The goal of this dissertation is to better understand the relationship between the crystalline lens shape, its non-uniform refractive index gradient and its optical power and their changes with age and accommodation. In this study direct lens power and shape measurements were acquired on isolated lenses, and on lenses mounted in a lens stretching system designed to simulate accommodation. Several lens shape and power measurement techniques were developed for this study including a Scheimpflug camera system optimized for imaging the crystalline lens. Direct measurements of lens shape and power were used to develop an age-dependent optical-mechanical model of the lens during accommodation. The study shows that the normal growth of the lens is a major contributor to the progressive loss of accommodation amplitude, independent of changes in the elastic properties of the lens. These findings suggest that accommodation can be restored by refilling the lens with a material having a uniform refractive index.

Abstract:
This thesis is about the customer experience in hotels. The thesis evaluates the customer experience in relation to the antecedents of behavioural loyalty. Behavioural loyalty is evaluated in relation to customer satisfaction, brand trust and brand attitude. Customer satisfaction is also evaluated in relation to the antecedents of hotel performance, service quality and perceived value. The broad research underpinning this research is: How do consumers perceive and relate to luxury and first class hotel brands? The hotel industry is a large and highly diverse industry that includes a wide range of property styles, uses and qualities (Chon & Sparrowe, 2000; Go & Pine, 1995; Olsen, 1996; Powers & Barrows, 1999). The industry covers the spectrum of small, medium and large enterprises (Brotherton, 2003; Jones, 2002) and makes a significant contribution to national and international economies. The research incorporated data collection in three stages. The first stage was a qualitative study of consumers who self selected as first class or luxury consumers. The data from the focus groups were used to develop items for inclusion in a survey instrument. The focus groups data, together with information gathered from a literature review, were used to develop scales across a number of hotel performance dimensions. In addition scales were included in the survey instrument on customer satisfaction, perceived value, brand trust, brand attitude and behavioural loyalty. The second stage of the research was a pilot study with the survey instrument being distributed to a convenience sample. The data collected at this stage were used to purify and refine the survey instrument. The final stage was data collected from consumers in a number of Australian hotels. The resultant data set comprised 693 completed and useable responses. The data were examined using exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses to confirm the hotel performance and other dimensions. The resultant dimensions showed good psychometric properties. A number of hypotheses were proposed in the thesis and examined using structural equation modelling. Although two hypotheses were rejected the resultant structural model showed strong relationships between the dimensions included. The research identified that service quality is a strong contributor to behavioural loyalty. The stronger pathway from service quality to behavioural loyalty was through customer satisfaction ( = 0.63) although the pathway through brand attitude ( = 0.22) was also significant. Both customer satisfaction and service quality had a significant effect on brand trust and service quality also influenced brand attitude. A number of recommendations for further research were made. These included the replication of this study in different geographic and industry contexts.

Abstract:
Sensor in-range fault accommodation is a fundamental challenge of dual channel control systems in modem aircraft gas turbine engines. An on-board real-time engine model can be used to provide an analytical third sensor channel which may be used to detect and isolate sensor faults. A fuzzy logic based accommodation approach is proposed which enhances the effectiveness of the analytical third channel in the control system’s fault isolation and accommodation scheme. Simulation studies show the fuzzy accommodation scheme to be superior to current accommodation techniques.

Abstract:
In-flight fault accommodation of safety-critical faults requires rapid detection and remediation. Indeed, for a class of safety critical faults, detection within a millisecond range is imperative to allow accommodation in time to avert undesired engine behavior. We address these issues with an integrated detection and accommodation scheme. This scheme comprises model-based detection, a bank of binary classifiers, and an accommodation module. The latter biases control signals with pre-defined adjustments to regain operability while staying within established safety limits. The adjustments were developed using evolutionary algorithms to identify optimal biases off-line for multiple faults and points within the flight envelope. These biases are interpolated online for the current flight conditions. High-fidelity simulation results are presented showing accommodation applied to a high-pressure turbine fault on a commercial, high-bypass, twin-spool, turbofan engine throughout the flight envelope.

Abstract:
The primary function of the lens of the eye, termed accommodation, is to precisely focus light onto the retina by changing curvature and corresponding refractive power. Investigators have long sought to understand the mechanism of accommodation in terms of interactions of the constituent tissues, which recently has been aided by biomechanical modeling. Such models depend heavily on accurate measurements of tissue mechanical properties and seek to predict stresses and strains. A critical component of the accommodative apparatus is the lens capsule, a bag-like membrane that encapsulates the lens nucleus and cortex and mediates tractions imposed onto this structure by the ciliary body. In addition to this physiologic process during normalcy, the lens capsule also plays a fundamental role in cataract surgery; a procedure that involves three basic steps: a quarter of the anterior lens capsule is removed via the introduction of a continuous circular capsulorhexis (CCC), the lens is broken up and suctioned out, and an artificial intraocular lens (IOL) is placed within the remnant capsular bag. Although novel IOL designs have decreased post-surgical complications, they currently lack the important feature of accommodation. Therefore, mechanical analysis of the lens capsule will allow for an understanding of its interaction with an implant that may further assist in the design of future accommodating IOLs (AIOLs). Here, we report a novel experimental approach to study in situ the regional, multiaxial mechanical behavior of both normal and diabetic human anterior lens capsules. Furthermore, we use these data to calculate material parameters in a nonlinear stress-strain relation via a custom sub-domain inverse finite element method (FEM). These parameters are then used to predict capsular stresses in response to imposed loads using a forward FEM model.

Abstract:
Recent work has shown that cyclic stresses from accommodation may induce changes in resistance to aqueous outflow through the trabecular meshwork. We developed a finite element model of the whole globe to examine changes in stress due to radial forces produced by the ciliary muscle. The mean equivalent stresses in the trabecular meshwork decreased significantly during accommodation.

Abstract:
Background Early detection and identification of faulty greenhouse operation is essential, if losses are to be minimized by taking immediate corrective actions. Automatic detection and identification would also free the greenhouse manager to tend to his other business. Original objectives The general objective was to develop a method, or methods, for the detection, identification and accommodation of faults in the greenhouse. More specific objectives were as follows: 1. Develop accurate systems models, which will enable the detection of small deviations from normal behavior (of sensors, control, structure and crop). 2. Using these models, develop algorithms for an early detection of deviations from the normal. 3. Develop identifying procedures for the most important faults. 4. Develop accommodation procedures while awaiting a repair. The Technion team focused on the shoot environment and the Cornell University team focused on the root environment. Achievements Models: Accurate models were developed for both shoot and root environment in the greenhouse, utilizing neural networks, sometimes combined with robust physical models (hybrid models). Suitable adaptation methods were also successfully developed. The accuracy was sufficient to allow detection of frequently occurring sensor and equipment faults from common measurements. A large data base, covering a wide range of weather conditions, is required for best results. This data base can be created from in-situ routine measurements. Detection and isolation: A robust detection and isolation (formerly referred to as 'identification') method has been developed, which is capable of separating the effect of faults from model inaccuracies and disturbance effects. Sensor and equipment faults: Good detection capabilities have been demonstrated for sensor and equipment failures in both the shoot and root environment. Water stress detection: An excitation method of the shoot environment has been developed, which successfully detected water stress, as soon as the transpiration rate dropped from its normal level. Due to unavailability of suitable monitoring equipment for the root environment, crop faults could not be detected from measurements in the root zone. Dust: The effect of screen clogging by dust has been quantified. Implications Sensor and equipment fault detection and isolation is at a stage where it could be introduced into well equipped and maintained commercial greenhouses on a trial basis. Detection of crop problems requires further work. Dr. Peleg was primarily responsible for developing and implementing the innovative data analysis tools. The cooperation was particularly enhanced by Dr. Peleg's three summer sabbaticals at the ARS, Northem Plains Agricultural Research Laboratory, in Sidney, Montana. Switching from multi-band to hyperspectral remote sensing technology during the last 2 years of the project was advantageous by expanding the scope of detected plant growth attributes e.g. Yield, Leaf Nitrate, Biomass and Sugar Content of sugar beets. However, it disrupted the continuity of the project which was originally planned on a 2 year crop rotation cycle of sugar beets and multiple crops (com and wheat), as commonly planted in eastern Montana. Consequently, at the end of the second year we submitted a continuation BARD proposal which was turned down for funding. This severely hampered our ability to validate our findings as originally planned in a 4-year crop rotation cycle. Thankfully, BARD consented to our request for a one year extension of the project without additional funding. This enabled us to develop most of the methodology for implementing and running the hyperspectral remote sensing system and develop the new analytical tools for solving the non-repeatability problem and analyzing the huge hyperspectral image cube datasets. However, without validation of these tools over a ful14-year crop rotation cycle this project shall remain essentially unfinished. Should the findings of this report prompt the BARD management to encourage us to resubmit our continuation research proposal, we shall be happy to do so.
