Social media are acknowledged as an important information source that influences tourists’ travel choices. However, qualitative studies take inductive approach to identify the roles of social by investigating how affect choices limited. By interviewing 21 tourists who had recently taken trips, this article aimed played in six components (destination, transportation, accommodation, food and dining activities, attractions, well shopping leisure activities). Four have been identified: Need...

Purpose The purpose of this study is to explore how hotels evolve their dynamic capabilities adjust technology-based strategy improve performance and gain competitive productivity (CP) during the COVID-19 pandemic in aftermath. Design/methodology/approach In-depth interviews with hoteliers were conducted unveil amid as regard adjustments self-service technology (SST)-based strategies. Thematic analysis was used analyze data. Findings Data revealed four types (i.e. sensing, learning,...

The phase field approach has become a popular tool in modeling interface motion, microstructure evolution, and more recently the shape transformation of vesicle membranes under elastic bending energy. While it is advantageous to employ models numerical simulations automatically handle topological changes microstructures or configurations membranes, detecting events may also important for many applications such as those simulation blood cells. Motivated by considerations, new quantity...

Self-service technologies (SSTs) are becoming a trend and can potentially supplement or replace human services. However, the experiential aspects on which SSTs outperform services remain unclear. This research adopted sequential mixed method (60 in-depth interviews followed by two survey rounds) to evaluate relative advantages of technology over humans. First, commensurate measurement scale (5 dimensions covering 22 items) for customer experience with was developed. Quantitative findings...

Common heuristic search-based multi-peak maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithms, such as a particle swarm optimizer and perturb, observe, check algorithm, can find the global (GMPP) of photovoltaic (PV) characteristic curve improve efficiency under partial shading situation. However, these methods have issues, including sharp fluctuations, poor dynamic performance, low efficiency, unstable environments EN50530 process. As result, they are rarely used in practice. A novel MPPT...

Purpose This study aims to investigate how source attractiveness (including platform credibility, product appeal and streamer attractiveness) information quality impact viewers’ cognition flow state. Additionally, it examines these factors influence the development of consumer attitudes behaviors toward livestreamed tourism shopping, as well moderating roles perceived risk personal characteristics. Design/methodology/approach A sequential mixed-methods research design was used. In addition a...

Purpose Drawn from flow theory, this study aims to explore children’s experiences in virtual reality (VR) by examining the relationships between VR experience length, arousal and (time estimation enjoyment). Design/methodolog/approach A within-subject laboratory experiment was conducted using 9D iMEC 12. total of 47 children participated study. Both survey data physiological were collected. Findings The results revealed that longer videos evoked lower arousal, higher respiratory rates less...

The simulation of microwave absorption and external thermal flow is an essential aspect the vacuum testing process for Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) antenna. This paper proposes a novel integrated method simulating flow, specifically designed testing. employs non-woven fabric square pyramid assembly as primary structure to establish low electromagnetic scattering environment. External heat achieved by arranging carbon fiber heating wires between cones. Through numerical analysis...

This paper investigates the attitude and position tracking control problem for Lead-Wing close formation systems in presence of loss effectiveness lock-in-place or hardover failure. In flight, Wing unmanned aerial vehicle movements are influenced by vortex effects neighbouring Lead vehicle. situation allows modelling aerodynamic coupling vortex-effects linearisation based on optimal geometry. Linearised model is transformed into nominal robust H-infinity models with respect to Mach hold,...

Fortune Global 500 has awarded China Telecom the Most Honored Company, Best Managed Company in Asia Telecommunication Sector, as well by esteemed international institutions for consecutive years. The gap is still large compared to Mobile’s percentage of 80%, thus this research performed understand determining factors Industry achieving customer satisfaction. current study using descriptive design most appropriate kind study. This aimed at collecting primary data. From study, researchers have...

We propose a novel method for recognizing irregular patterns in facades. An pattern is an incomplete 2D grid, representing the placements of repetitive structural architectural objects (e.g., windows), which capable being generalized to variety facade structures. To effectively recognize such pattern, we jointly model and object structures unified Marked Point Process framework, where are abstracted as sparsely populated geometric entities pairwise spatially interactions modeled elliptical...

ABSTRACTABSTRACTStudies have attributed cross-cultural variation in consumer phenomena to cultural effects without considering other factors, likely leading false conclusions. This study seeks clarify whether the of culture on cruising preferences are influenced by elements. First, attributes were identified using a mixed-methods approach. Conjoint analysis was then conducted examine travelers' for data collected China and America. Finally, within-culture comparison performed. Results...

Abstract Enterprise information system may be threatened and attacked at any time from the external internal environment, so how to improve enterprise outside world unknown threat detection is particularly important. This paper based on method that applied detecting identifying threat, as protect system’s safety stability with technical support guarantee. It can avoid impact of security greatest extent.
