An effective transportation planning and policy making requires a good understanding of the association between mode choice and transportation users as well as non-users costs.Once an individual decides to make a trip to a particular location, travel time and cost are the primary factors...
Asphalt binder is considered as the most expensive part of hot mix asphalt pavement material. Leather industry has been categorized as one of highly polluting industries and it has adverse impact on environment because of its generation of liquid, solid and gaseous wastes. Solid wastes generated...
Production of cellulosic ethanol was investigated in this study. The wood sawdust hasrnlignocelluloses content, which make it suitable as fermentable sugars, when hydrolyzed. Therndried sawdust with uniform particle size was hydrolyzed with sulfuric acid for breaking the bondrnthat binds sugar...
Flooding of urban areas is a worldwide problem as cities grow rapidly. Due to urbanization increases catchment changes strongly to impervious coverage and by decreasing pervious areas. The main objective of the study was focused on the (1) Identifying which critical parts of the drainage area are...
Although several studies were conducted on modeling future land use land cover (LULC) change in Ethiopia, predicting future urban land surface temperature (LST) from LULC dynamics is less common. The objective of the study was to predict the future LST of Addis Ababa city and its surrounding area...
