                         rarefied hypersonic flow over cavities by employing the Direct 
                         Simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method. The work focuses on the 
                         effects in the aerodynamic surface quantities due to variations in 
                         the cavity length-to-depth (L/H) ratio. The results presented 
                         highlight the sensitivity of the heat transfer, pressure and skin 
                         friction coefficients due to changes on the cavity L/H ratio. The 
                         L/H ratio ranged from 1 to 4, which corresponded to overall 
                         Knudsen numbers in the transition flow regime. The analysis showed 
                         that the aerodynamic quantities acting on the cavity surface rely 
                         on the L/H ratio. It was found that the pressure load and the 
                         heating load to the cavity surfaces presented peak values along 
                         the downstream face, i.e., at the cavity shoulder. Moreover, these 
                         loads are much higher than those found in a smooth surface .",
