DC-DC converters are non-linear and the most widely used circuits in power electronics. Generally they are used in all situations where there is need of stabilizing a given DC voltage to a desired value. DC-DC buck converter is used in applications for voltage step-down.rnThe output voltage of this...
Norfloxacin is hygroscopic and can under go polymorphic change upon exposure to high relative humidity. Currently, many different brands of norfloxacin tablets are available in local market, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The quality of these brands may vary with time under the influence of a variety of...
In Ethiopia, only 52% and 28% of the population have access to safe water and sanitation coverage, respectively; as a result, 60-80% of the population suffers from waterborne and water-related diseases. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the physico chemical and microbial quality of drinking...
Background: The scarcity of having histopathology laboratory in the nation will cause therndifficulty to diagnose as well as follow up cancer diseases. Besides, the scarcity of professionalsrnalso contributes for the lack of the service in developing countries like Ethiopia. Laboratoryrnlaboratory...
This study was aimed to describe and analyze teachers' involvement in educationalrnresearch in Eastern Gojjam Secondary Schools and to investigate factors that affect theirrninvolvement in educational research. To achieve these purposes, a descriptive surveyrnresearch method was employed. The...
The basic mathematical foundation for the vertical electrical soundingrnmethod has been presented by deriving the formula for the potential distribution atrnthe surface of a horizontally stratified earth. The apparent resistivity and itsrnrelation with resistivity transform function has been shown...
Women are essential to economic growth in developing countries. They play differentrnroles including productive works for earning income and food for the family. Theyrnalso engage in reproductive works which include food reproducing and preparing atrnhomes. In addition to this, they also play the...
Chemometrics-assisted spectrophotometric methods were developed for simultaneousrndeterminations of binary mixtures of (1). benzoic acid and salicylic acid, and (2). resorcinol andrnsalicylic acid mixture. The commercial forms were marketed in Ethiopia and Egypt, such asrnwhitefield ointment, luna...
Brucellosis is an important infectious disease causes significant reproductive losses in sexually mature animals and zoonotic hazard. A cross sectional seroprevalence survey was conducted from November 2015 to March 2016 in Arba Minch Zuria and Mirab Abaya districts of Gamo Gofa zone with the...
Wetlands are one of the crucial natural resources. They provide invaluable biodiversity resources, aid in water quality improvement, support ground water recharge, help in moderating climate change and support flood control. Environment is in the other hand, where we live and something we are very...
Despite a long history of micro hydropower in Ethiopia, locally manufactured low cost frequency controllers are not well developed and are not available off-the-shelf in local market. The frequencies of micro hydropower plants are controlled by electronic load controllers. Unfortunately, these...
Background: Post operative wound infection is hospital acquired infection and it is the majorrncause of morbidity and mortality throughout the world especially in developing countries. Drugrnresistance is the challenge for controlling such bacteria now days. Assessing the prevalentrnbacteria and...
The flexibility and other advantages of mobile ad-hoc networks come with different security flaws,rnand flooding attack is one of the common attacks in reactive routing protocols. In ad-hoc floodingrnattack, the attacker either broadcasts a lot of route request packets or sends a lot of attacking...
During the last decades, constructed wetlands (CW) were very successful when used forrntreatment of wastewater from different sources such as municipal, domestic, industrial,rnagricultural and surface runoff. This new approach is designed based on natural processesrninvolving complex and concerted...
Lamivudine belongs to the class of nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors, and is potent inrnvitro and in vivo inhibitors of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), which is the causativernagent of the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. Various analytical methods have beenrnreported for the...
This study examines the impacts of tax incentives in attracting FDI in Ethiopia from 1992 torn2013. The purpose of this research is to examine the inconsistent empirical evidence on thernuse of tax incentives in attracting FDI. The study adopts a mixed methods research wherernprimary data is...
With the aid of c-number Langevin equations, we have calculated the Q-functions forrnthe two-mode coherent and subharmonic cavity light beams. Applying the input-outputrnrelation, we have obtained the Q-functions for the two-mode coherent and subharmonicrnoutput light beams. We have then determined...
Ethiopia is facing serious land degradation (particularly soil erosion, nutrient depletion and land-use/land cover changes) due to natural and anthropogenic influences. This thesis examines forms and drivers of land degradation and adaptive mechanisms in Northeastern Wollega, Ethiopia. The changes...
