Watermarking digital images for copyright protection
(IEE, 1996)A watermark is an invisible mark placed on an image that is designed to identify both the source of an image as well as its intended recipient. The authors present an overview of watermarking techniques and demonstrate a ... -
Watermarking digital images for copyright protection
(IEE, 1995)A watermark is all invisible mark placed on an image that can only be detected when the image is compared with the original. This mark is designed to identify both the source of a document as well as its intended recipient. ... -
Wavelet-Bayesian hierarchical stochastic model for short-term traffic flow at noncritical junctions
(2008)In ITS (Intelligent Transportation System) equipped urban transportation systems noncritical junctions are often ignored in short-term traffic condition prediction algorithms as the traffic data collection systems in ... -
What we can't learn from nature
(2011)When attempting to design bio-inspired materials and structures, it is important to remember that Nature employs some strategies for optimising the use of load-bearing materials which we, as engineers, cannot replicate. A ... -
Whispering-gallery modes in photonic tubes
(Society of Photo-optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE), 2007)A new method has been developed to fabricate microtube resonators with strong whispering-gallery-mode emission and quality factors up to 3000. -
Whole-Body Magnetic Resonance Imaging Enables Assessing Spatial Accuracy and Precision of Skeletal Joint Locations Inferred from Motion Capture Systems
(2015)Motion capture systems can be used to infer skeletal joints from three-dimensional surface information for various human poses. However, to-date it remains unclear how well the estimated joint coordinates coincide with ... -
Wide Range Performance Measurement and Low-Fidelity Modelling of Turbocharger Turbines for Optimising Powertrain Efficiency
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Discipline of Mechanical & Manuf. Eng, 2024)Turbochargers have been widely used for many years and have made remarkable contributions in reducing the vehicle emissions by reducing the engine size while maintaining the same power output. They are also needed in designs ... -
Wilting rationalism in technical decision making
(2023)Decision makers in diverse engineering disciplines, ranging from technical risk analysis and design to the development of risk-informed policies that impact on technology and society, benefit from the existence of a solid ... -
Wireless vascular monitoring implants

A wolf in sheep's clothing: Exposing the structural violence of private electric automobility
(2023)The world is running out of time to avoid cataclysmic climate impacts. Therefore, determining which decarbonisation strategies are more effective and inclusive in reducing anthropogenic dependency on fossil fuels is vital ... -
Workflow-induced uncertainty in probabilistic landslide hazard maps
(2023)Increasing complexity and capacity of computational physics-based landslide run-out modelling over the last few years yielded highly efficient model-based decision support tools, e.g. landslide susceptibility or run-out ... -
Yield Behavior of Sand under Generalized Stress Conditions
(2005)The yield behavior of Leighton Buzzard sand was studied for different magnitudes of the three principal stresses and different orientations of the major principal stress using a hollow cylinder apparatus. Stress paths were ...
