Purpose of this study was to determine the service quality among sport and fitness centers of universities. Participants of the study constituted of 484 (194 female, and 290 male) person who are student, academic and administrative staff attending to sport and fitness centers of seven universities in Ankara. The mean age of the participants was 22.45 ± 5.14. The SQAS-T (The Turkish Version of the Service Quality Assessment Scale) was used as instrument. In the statistical analysis, descriptive statistics was used to identify participants’ demographic profiles and to investigate distribution of mean of the participants’ difference scores (service quality satisfaction scores). Inferential Statistics (MANOVA: Multivariate Analysis of Variance test) was used to investigate if there was any significant difference in the service quality satisfaction scores of the participants according to their demographic profiles. Finally, the Pearson Product-Moment Correlation Coefficient test was used to investigate if any relationship existed between the age and service quality satisfaction scores of the participants. Results indicated that service quality among the sport and fitness centers of the universities did not fulfill their users’ expectations. However, according to mean of total difference scores it was seen this dissatisfaction level was not so huge. Results also indicated that participants’ demographic profiles did not show any significance difference in the service quality satisfaction scores. In addition, there was no strong relationship observed between the age and service quality satisfaction scores of the participants.

Comparison of different yield criteria in various deep drawn cups Cogun, Ferah; Darendeliler, Haluk (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2017-03-01) The aim of the study is to evaluate the performance of three recent yield criteria namely; BBC2008-8p, Yld2003-8p, Hu2003 through the simulation of the hemispherical, cylindrical and square cup drawing processes by comparing the results with the ones obtained by using the von Mises criterion for the isotropic, kinematic and combined hardening and the Hill'48 criterion. For this purpose, two different sheet materials, SS304 stainless steel and DKP6112 steel, and various punch travels were used in the simulat...
Modelling Energy Consumption of the Republic of Serbia using Linear Regression and Artificial Neural Network Technique Protic, Milan; Fathurrahman, Fahman; Raos, Miomir (Mechanical Engineering Faculty in Slavonski Brod, 2019-02-01) The objectives of the study are twofold. First, we aim to examine the most influential socio-economic indicators to explain energy consumption in Republic of Serbia. The second objective is to develop models that are able to predict the future energy consumption in the Republic of Serbia. This could be the first important step towards proper energy management in the country. Several potential socio-economic indicators are selected to be the independent variables. Regression analysis is conducted to select t...
