Physical and Mechanical Properties of Lightweight Expanded Clay Aggregate (LECA)

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
Lightweight aggregate is the generic name of a group of aggregates having a relative density lower than normal aggregates (natural sand, gravel, and crushed stone), sometimes is referred to as low density aggregate. Depending on the source and the method

LECA: A learned approach for efficient cover-agnostic watermarking

open access: yesElectronic Imaging, 2023
In this work, we present an efficient multi-bit deep image watermarking method that is cover-agnostic yet also robust to geometric distortions such as translation and scaling as well as other distortions such as JPEG compression and noise. Our design consists of a light-weight watermark encoder jointly trained with a deep neural network based decoder ...

Integrating Horizontal Gene Transfer and Common Descent to Depict Evolution and Contrast It with ‘‘Common Design [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) and common descent interact in space and time. Because events of HGT co-occur with phylogenetic evolution, it is difficult to depict evolutionary patterns graphically. Tree-like representations of life’s diversification are

Characterization and functional analysis of tandem threonine containing C-type lectin (Thr-Lec) from the ridgetail white prawn Exopalaemon carinicauda

open access: yesFish and Shellfish Immunology Reports, 2021
As an important pattern-recognition receptor (PRR), C-type lectins (CTLs) play significant roles in recognizing microbes and battle against pathogenic microorganism in innate immunity.

Constructed wetlands with light expanded clay aggregates for agricultural wastewater treatment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Constructed wetlands (CWs) are receiving a renewed attention as a viable phytotechnology for treating agricultural wastewaters and for the removal of more specific pollutants, in particular recalcitrant ones. In this work, the performance of CW mesocosms
