dans la littérature africaine où on rencontre assez fréquemment la thématique de la
campagne et de la ville (voir Mohamadou Kane, Roman africain et tradition, et Roger
Chemain, La Ville dans le roman africain).
La particularité ici, c’est le fait qu’on s’intéres(...)

Forecasted Changes in West Africa Photovoltaic Energy Output by 2045
Serge Dimitri Yikwe Buri Bazyomo , Emmanuel Agnidé Lawin , Ousmane Coulibaly and Abdoulaye Ouedraogo
The impacts of climate change on photovoltaic (PV) output in the fifteen countries of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) was analyzed in this paper. Using a set of eight climate models, the trends of solar radiation and temperature between 2006–2100 were examined. Assuming a lifetime of 40 years, the future changes of photov(...)

Impact of Small-World Effect on the ip-level Routing Dynamics
Frédéric Tounwendyam Ouédraogo, Tegawendé Bissyandé, Sawadogo Daouda, Didier Bassolé, Abdoulaye Séré, Oumarou Sié
Running periodically traceroute-like measurements at suite frequency from a given monitor towards a fixed set of destinations allows observing a dynamics of routing topology around the monitor. This observed dynamics has revealed two main characteristics: the topology evolves at a pace much higher than expected and the occurrence of observed i(...)

Densification behaviour of chamotte grog for refractory bricks : mineralogy and microstructure
Moustapha Sawadogo, Mohamed Seynou, Lamine Zerbo, Brahima Sorgho, Adama Yameogo, Younoussa Millogo, Raguilnaba Ouedraogo
The paper deal with the densification behaviour of chamotte grog made with raw clay material at
high temperature. The sintering conditions as temperature (1100, 1200, 1300 and 1400°C) temperature time (0.5;
1 and 2hours) have been varied to check the optimal condition to produce grog with better characteristics. The
relationship between(...)

Distribution of High-Risk Human Papillomavirus Genotypes in Precancerous Cervical Lesions in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso
Diagbouga S, Salah FD, Sadji AY, Dabire AM, Nadembega C, Kere AB, Soubeiga ST, Ouattara AK, Zohoncon T, Belemgnegre M, Karou S, Simpore J
Aims: We aimed at identifying the high-risk HPV genotypes associated with high-grade dysplastic cervical lesions in Burkina Faso. The available vaccines to Burkina Faso only protect against two high risk HPV genotypes: HPV 16 and 18. Are the genotypes identified in the high-grade precan-cerous lesions in this survey covered by the available va(...)

Detection of High Prevalence of TEM/SHV/CTX-M Genes in ESBL Producing and Multidrug Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae and Klebsiella oxytoca
Diagbouga S, Salah F D, Sadji A Y, Dabire A M, Nadembega C, Kere A B, Soubeiga S T, Ouattara A K, Zohoncon T, Belemgnegre M, Karou S, Simpore J
Background: Klebsiella spp. are Enterobacteriaceae frequently isolated from pathological specimens during
urinary tract infections, bloodstream infection, and pus. They are becoming more and more resistant to antibiotics
and challenging treatment options. β-lactamases are a great variety of enzymes capable of inducing resistance to βlactams.(...)

Methanol Extract from Anogeissus leiocarpus (DC) Guill. et Perr. (Combretaceae) Stem Bark Quenches the Quorum Sensing of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1
Vincent OUEDRAOGO, Martin KIENDREBEOGO
En raison de son vaste arsenal de facteurs de virulence et de sa résistance aux antibiotiques, Pseudomonas aeruginosa constitue une menace, notamment chez les patients immunodéprimés. Compte tenu du rôle central du quorum sensing dans la production des facteurs de virulence, l'inhibition du mécanisme de communication bactérienne constitue une(...)

« Literatures of Inculturation: Achebe, Jumbam and Adichie »
André Kaboré
Most African writers have been brought up as Christians. But some of them publicly rebelled against Christianity by dropping their Christian names: Chinua Achebe (formerly Albert C. Achebe), Kofi Awoonor of Ghana (formerly George Awoonor-Williams), Ama Ata Aidoo of Ghana (formerly Christiana Aidoo), Ngugi Wa Thiong'o of Kenya (formerly James N(...)

« Reading Aloud as Interface between Written and Oral Literatures in Britain, Ireland and Kenya »
André Kaboré
Literary criticism, especially in Europe, has not sufficiently shown and acknowledged the reciprocal interaction between oral and written traditions. Though it is easy to believe, with the theory of new historicism, that early written literature
took over material from oral literature, the passage from print literature to the oral tradition(...)

Les enjeux de la périurbanisation en Afrique subsaharienne : regards croisés sur les agglomérations de Maputo et Ouagadougou
KIETTYETTA Jean Yves & MACABA Adélaïde
La croissance urbaine en Afrique subsaharienne s’est opérée selon les formes classiques : une densification ou un étalement des agglomérations existantes, l'émergence de nouvelles agglomérations, soit à partir de noyaux villageois existants, soit sous la forme de villes nouvelles spécialement crées, soit encore sous la forme de rassemble(...)

Evaluation de l'efficacité d'un modèle pluie/débit a simuler les écoulements dans un contexte de variabilité climatique : cas du bassin versant du Sourou au Burkina Faso
KARAMBIRI Bienvenue Lawankilea Chantal Noumpoa, DIPAMA Jean-Marie, VISSIN Expédit W.
Les ressources en eau font face à l’effet de la variabilité climatique. L’Afrique de L’Ouest est caractérisée par l'insuffisance des pluies et leur mauvaise répartition dans le temps et dans l’espace. Cette insuffisance pluviométrique entraîne une fluctuation des écoulements soit à la baisse pour la plus part des bassins versant de cette parti(...)
