This paper presents a local audio watermarking method based on the dual-tree complex wavelet transform (DT CWT) and distortion-compensated dither modulation (DC-DM).Specifically, we perform DT CWT on extracted audio segment, and embed the watermark signal in the decomposed low-pass coefficients.During the embedding process, the selected coefficient

We propose a dislocation adsorption-based mechanism for void growth in metals, wherein a void grows as dislocations from the bulk annihilate at its surface.The basic process is governed by glide and cross-slip of pantaloni bianchi neonato dislocations at the surface of a void.Using molecular dynamics simulations we show that when dislocations are p

Background: In rare cases, isolated hypoglossal palsy may arise from dissection and/or pseudoaneurysm of either the internal carotid artery (ICA) or the vertebral artery (VA).However, the mechanism of this pathology has not been elucidated, and no high-quality randomized cirque colors lavender sky data exist to guide its management.Case Description

Ozizza community is one outstanding heritage site, which straddles the East of Ugwuegu and Ukpa rock shelters and has a total area of 24.32km2.Ozizza is situated on a hill, with undulating plain, and lies between N900E north of Upper Afikpo.It is endowed with both archaeological and ethnographic resources; interestingly, uri ease paw gel for cats t

The recent seismic code SNI 1726-2012 is significantly different compared to the older code SNI 1726-2002.The seismic hazard map was significantly changed and the level of maximum considered earthquake was significantly increased.Therefore, buildings designed according to outdated code may not resist the higher demand required by newer code.In this
