Experimentally validated raman Monte Carlo simulation for a cuboid object to obtain raman spectroscopic signatures for hidden material by Periyasamy, Vijitha, Sil, Sanchita, Dhal, Gagan, Ariese, Freek, Umapathy, Siva, Pramanik, Manojit

“…In addition, we demonstrate through simulations the effects of the absorption and scattering coefficients of the layers, and that of the diameter of the excitation beam. The advantage of collecting light from all possible 4π angles, over other collection modes is that this technique is not geometry specific and molecular identification of layers underneath nontransparent surfaces can be obtained with minimal interference from the surface layer. …”

Investigation of soil-structure interaction for deep excavations by Hensman, P

“…The deep excavation was supported by a complex ’combi-wall’ cofferdam, a reinforced concrete (RC) capping beam, and two levels of internal bracing, and its performance was assessed through measured wall deflections, bracing member loads, and site and bunker water levels. …”

Measurement of the background in the CMS muon detector in 𝑝𝑝 -collisions at √𝑠 =13 TeV by Tytgat, M., Muhammad, A., De Lentdecker, G., Jaramillo, J., Moureaux, L., Pétré, L., Yang, Y., Rendón, C., Gokbulut, G., Hong, Y., Samalan, A., Alves, G. A., Marujo da Silva, F., Alves Coelho, E., Barroso Ferreira Filho, M., Da Costa, E. M., De Jesus Damiao, D., Ferreira, B. C., Fonseca De Souza, S., Mota Amarilo, K.

“…While some backgrounds result from natural radioactivity, cosmic rays, and interactions of the circulating protons with residual gas in the beam pipe, the dominant source of background hits in the muon system arises from proton–proton interactions themselves. …”

Enforcing Identification and Authentication Policies at Scale in a Cloud Microservices Architecture by Sinha, Varnika

“…These large numbers of secrets are hard to manage and track in the case of exposure, which leads to a risk of misconfiguration and leaks. We implement a framework that accounts for these secrets by managing the creation, rotation, and deletion in accordance with the existing architecture of the platform with a Kubernetes custom resource and controller and ensure that a secret with the correct permissions is always present when needed.…”
