Two cultivars of taro (Boloso I and Acc.236000) which were grown in Wollaita zone of Sothern Nations, Nationalities and People Ethiopia were analyzed for their proximate composition,rnmineral composition, functional properties, and physicochemical properties and antinutritional factors composition....
Ethiopia provides a well-known example of a severely degraded African environment withrnconsequent implications for food insecurity and famine. Physical land degradation after roadrnbuilding has been observed in Central Ethiopian highlands through gully erosion. In thisrnresearch work by using a...
Soft sensors are key solutions in predicting importance process variables. In process industries,rnimportant parameters which are difficult or cost a lot to measure online can be predicted usingrnsoft sensors. In this thesis a data driven soft sensor is developed using neural network to...
This research project was designed and conducted to provide students with strategy training in order to ensure more effective communicative interaction during group work carried out in the language classroom. The assumption is that appropriate classroom organization and detailed task definition,...
In this thesis, the number density and vapor pressure of a sodium atom in therntemperature ranges 337 K, close to room temperature, up to 511 K arerndetermined from the measurement of the transmittance and temperature of thernsample. The broadening parameters at different temperatures are...
An integrated geophysical exploration using Magnetic, Induced Polarization (IP) and Gamm-RayrnSpectrometry methods were conducted for iron ore exploration in Meti Segeda locality, OmornBeyem woreda, Jimma zone Southwest Ethiopia. Geologically, the area is situated by volcanicrnrocks represented by...
Wedecha River is one of floriculture industry sites in Debrezeit. Wedecha River is importantrnfor agriculture and domestic activities (eg, drinking, washing etc.) of the surrounding people.rnIt is exposed to waste water discharge of the floriculture industries and disturbance of thernaquatic...
In the advancement of digital computer it is becoming common to model a certain system to get a deep insight of the existing conditions. In this thesis Kirchoff's thin plate theory is considered to study static behaviour of a plate. Based on the assumption of the theory a finite element computer...
Public enterprises are organizations established and owned by government to provide differentrnservices to the public. Most of the time these enterprises give their services to the public byrncollecting some amount of money which is less than the market price of the goods or servicesrnprovided by...
The study is aims at understanding the link between inflation rate, national saving rate and per capita income growth rate in Ethiopia. To achieve this objective co-integrated VAR approach was employed. The estimated models enable to understand the long run and short run relationship of the...

LULC change is conversion of one cover type to another and/or modification a changernwithin one land use category and it is an undeniable global trend. This study wasrnconducted in Legedadi reservoir watershed in North Western Shoa Zone Aleltu andrnBereh district where there is high soil erosion...
Electrical energy is essentially required for industrial as well as all-round development ofrnany country. The growing demand of electrical power for different activities has forcedrnscientists and researchers to develop alternate sources of power generation from differentrnsources of renewable...
BACKGROUND- Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is the most common nosocomialrninfection, with the prevalence rates ranging from 10% to 70% in critical/ Intensive care units. It isrna sub-type of hospital-acquired pneumonia which occurs in people who are on intubation orrnmechanical ventilation...
Geophysical surveys were carried out around Addis Ababa namely on the Ada’a plain, the Becho plain and different traverses with different orientations in the Abay plateau by Water Works Design and Supervision Enterprise (WWDSE). The methods employed were electrical resistivity sounding,...
This research thesis deployed a predominantly qualitative approach using arncombination of survey and interviews in addition to an extensive literature review,rnpublically available report and documents on dispute settlement mechanismrnbetween the government and its employees.rnThe thesis presents...
In this work we have examined the formation of neutron stars (NSs) in the core of arnsupernova explosion during the death of massive stars, neutrino emission mechanismsrnin the interior of NSs under di erent assumptions on their internal structure, and thernthermal history of NSs by determining...
The high frequency (HF) band is a cost effective medium for a long distance transmissionrnbeyond the horizon, for limited bandwidth of up to 3 kHz. However, the HF channel isrnsimultaneously a time and frequency dispersive environment. Time spread is two fold and resultsrnfrom multiple reflections...
Energy is one of the basic things needed to satisfy basic human needs. The primaryrnsource of almost all forms of energies is the sun. Ethiopia is among the countries situated inrnthe Sunbelt and is endowed with abundant solar radiation, yet it suffers from cooking energyrnshortage. Inability of...
Urban population growth together with the development of new industries and commercial centresrngenerate huge amount of solid waste daily. Like in many developing world cities a rapid populationrngrowth and high rural-urban migration posses many environmental challenges for the Addis Ababarncity....
