Digital asset management systems (DAMS) handle different media data in a compressed and encrypted form. It is essential to watermark these compressed encrypted media items in the compressed-encrypted domain itself for tamper detection or ownership declaration or copyright management purposes. Attempting steganography technique is such a randomized bit stream can cause a poor degradation of the media quality. Thus it is important to choose an encryption scheme that is both secure and will allow watermarking in a predictable manner in the compressed encrypted domain. we propose a rainbow algorit

Abstract:
The coalification rank of the coal blend components and their caking properties initially impact the coke’s quality. In part, the quality of coke depends on the technological parameters of the coke production technology, such as the method of blend preparation, the coking condition, the design features of the coke ovens, and the technique used for post-oven treatment. Therefore, to improve the coke quality, the main attention is paid to the quality of the coal blend. The petrographic analysis is the simplest and most reliable way to control coal quality indicators under industrial conditions.

Rational conditions for orientational drawing of PETg/PET polyester blend during processing into tape products are established. Tensile strength and elongation at break for all test specimens were determined according to ISO 527-2: 2012. Tensile modulus - ISO 527-1: 2019, specimen density - PN-EN ISO 1183-1, change of linear dimensions of specimens - ISO 16012: 2015. It was found that the introduction of PET into PETg leads to an increase in tensile strength of the blend, which is probably due to the process of orientational crystallization of PET.

Abstract:
Abstract Hydrogen addition in ammonia is one attractive solution to manage all operating conditions of future ammonia engine. But even if ammonia is strongly resistive to auto-ignition, the presence of hydrogen can as a function of the thermodynamic conditions related to the compression ration induce the knock occurrence. So far, only one recent study is focused on this phenomenon based only on simulations without any experimental data. Even if the kinetics of ammonia oxidation is more and more understood, for example about 40 kinetic mechanisms are now available, there is still a lack of expe

Abstract:
In June 2023, the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Board of Pressure Technology Codes and Standards approved a plan to modify the location and content of hydrogen pipelines within their code. The decision was made to relocate the hydrogen pipeline sections of ASME B31.12 Hydrogen Piping and Pipelines to a new exception chapter within ASME B31.8 Gas Transmission and Distribution Piping Systems. Along with this move, the technical content was also to be updated to reflect current best practices. The Pipeline Research Council International (PRCI) established the Emerging Fuels Inst

Abstract:
The idea of conflict economies is a broad concept encompassing several research angles. Definitions differ according to these focuses. Some of the main uses of the concept are to understand: • economic analysis of the motives for and likelihood of war • financing of state and non-state belligerents • how the continuation of conflicts can be explained by rational motives including economic ones • how conflict affects economic activity, and how conflict parties and citizens adapt Some distinctive characteristics of war economies are (Ballentine & Nitzschke, 2005, p. 12): • They involve the d

Abstract:
Moths constitute a major group of pest insects in agriculture. Pheromone blends are utilised by a variety of moth species to attract conspecific mates, which is under circadian control by the neurohormone, PBAN (pheromone-biosynthesis-activating neuropeptide). Our working hypothesis was that, since the emission of sex-pheromone is necessary to attract a mate, then failure to produce and emit pheromone is a potential strategy for manipulating adult moth behavior. The project aimed at identifying, characterising and determining the sequence of specific receptors responsible for the interaction w
