This paper proposes a robust digital image watermarking techniques by using discrete wavelet transform. The watermark is embedded in 2-level diagonal coefficient to achieve high performance in term of imperceptibility. The watermark is embedded by selecting a seed that generating pseudorandom noise sequence. Then the Watermark is extracted back by

Polypyrrole and other conducting polymers are of interest in actuators, sensors, energy storage devices and organic electronics. The patterning of these polymers can be challenging, particularly polypyrrole due to its insolubility. This paper reports the first micropatterning of polypyrrole using high-frequency pulses of extremely miniaturized elec

The campaign to collect rain attenuation data on terrestrial links had commenced in Malaysian tropical climates for almost two decades. The terrestrial data so far collected have been greatly utilized to derive useful statistics for various microwave applications, such as frequency scaling, rain rate conversion factor, 1-min rain rate contour maps,

tAwareness on the advantages of natural fibers stimulates the interest of researchers to use them asreinforcement in polymer composites for robust application. Therefore, investigation on optimizing theimpact property of durian skin fiber (DSF) reinforced polypropylene (PP) composites was carried outto determine the effect of DSF content, fiber siz

Morphometric analysis was carried out to find out changes in the growth pattern of male and female stomatopod, Harpiosquilla raphidea. Six morphometric relationships were examined on 105 males and 105 females, ranging in size from 103 to 207 mm and from 104 to 222 mm in total length, respectively. In both the sexes, the relative growth of carapace
