This thread of detection will deter users from releasing unauthorized copies. A problem arises when the seller is dishonesty, he has a chance to use the digital watermarking with the buyer ID maliciously and make the buyer receive false-accusation. In this paper, an improved digital watermarking scheme is introduced to prevent false-accusation to an honest buyer, which is combined with the advantage of PKC(public key certificate) so that it fits the on-line transaction and helps to realize secure e-commerce. In addition, the extended application of this scheme is discussed.展开更多

The experimental model is scaled according to a full size platform by matching its dynamic properties. Rectangular and circular TLDs of various sizes and water depths are examined. The experiments were performed in a 2-D wave flume. The effectiveness of TLDs is evaluated based on their response reduction. By observing the performance and the behavior of TLDs through laboratory experiments, the effects of a number of parameters including container shape, container size, number of dampers, frequency ratio, mass ratio, and incident wave characteristics are investigated.展开更多
