The present study was aimed to investigate word initial and medial voiceless fricatives /f,rns, ʃ, h/ produced by typically developing children between the age of 3 and 6 and adultrnspeakers of Haraghe Oromo dialect. The study investigated whether fricatives wererndistinct as a function of noise...
Magnetic levitation systems are systems which operate based on the principle of magnetic attraction and repulsion to levitate an object and widely used in frictionless bearings, high-speed Maglev passenger trains, levitation of wind tunnel models, and so on. Their attracting feature is that they...
Most practical Boiler systems are characterized by high uncertainty which makes them difficultrnto maintain good stability margins and performance properties for closed loop system. In case ofrnconventional control, if plant parameter changes we cannot assure about the system performance.rnHence it...
Hydro power plant plays an important role in a safe, stable and efficientrnoperation of electric power systems, Performance of hydro power in terms ofrnfrequency and power control increasingly important. This is as a result ofrnsophistication of hydro power plant dynamic modeling.rnIn this thesis,...
