The evaluation of seismic earth pressures is of vital importance for the earthquake resistant design of various retaining walls and infrastructures. It is one of the key research subjects in soil mechanics and geotechnical engineering. In engineering practices, the magnitude and distribution of seismic earth pressures are greatly affected by the mode and amount of wall displacement. However, cl...

A serological survey on bovine brucellosis was carried out 3 times between 2007 and 2009 in 3 districts (Kiboga, Mpigi and Kiruhura) in western Uganda and 2 (Kumi and Mbale) in the east employing the rose bengal test (RBT) for infected-herd screening and an indirect ELISA (iELISA) for testing the serostatus of individual animals. The animal prevalence was significantly higher in the 3 districts...

following the widespread acceptance of multiple intelligences theory, thomas armstrong (1984), in the initiative action, integrated it with bloom's taxonomy and enriched the theory. actually, armstrong helped remarkable by this integration to classify each of multiple intelligences in each of the six levels of cognitive domain, as well as better planning and targeting and designing curricu...

This paper presents a decision-making model which can help public health professionals justify their decision to advocate for a particular intervention. The model is demonstrated by a case study related to advocacy of Random Breath Testing (RBT). For the purpose of this paper advocacy is a "catch-all word for the set of skills used to create a shift in public opinion and mobilise the necessary ...

increasingly important, e.g. Wi-Fi. Performance is a very relevant issue, resulting in more reliable and efficient communications. Laboratory measurements are made about several performance aspects of Wi-Fi (IEEE 802.11a, b, g) point-to-point links using available access points from Enterasys Networks (RBT-4102). Through OSI levels 3, 4 and 7, detailed results are presented and discussed, namel...

The results multiple linear regression 112 respondents stated that orientation, had a significant positive performance, ...

Brucellosis is among the most common bacterial zoonotic diseases worldwide. It estimated that up to 500,000 new human cases occur each year. a priority zoonosis in East African countries. In Tanzania, disease one of six zoonoses, however, little burden information available especially children. Children are particular interest pastoral communities due increased risk exposure their routine activ...

The principal methods for the serological diagnosis of bovine brucellosis are the complement fixation test (CFT), serum agglutination test (SAT), Rose-Bengal test (RBT), indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (iELISA) and more recently the competitive ELISA (cELISA) and the fluorescent polarisation assay (FPA). Guidelines set by the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE) describe method...
