Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dans ce mémoire deux principaux axes sont développés : - Dans un premier temps, on s'intéresse à la modélisation numérique du comportement thermo-mécanique des élastomères. Pour ce faire un modèle mécanique en grandes déformations est proposé et discuté. Il est basé sur les hypothèses classiques de l'état local et des matériaux standards généralisés, et s'appuie sur la notion d'états intermédiaires. On applique alors la méthode des éléments finis à ces équations. Le modèle éléments finis mécanique ainsi obtenu est alors associé, via un algorithme de couplage séquentiel à une formulation éléments finis des équations de la thermique écrites en configuration lagrangienne. Diverses simulations numériques, visant à valider d'une part le comportement écanique, et d'autre part thermo-mécanique, sont présentées et confrontées à des résultats expérimentaux. - Dans un second temps, l'objet du travail concerne la modélisation d'un assemblage de structures composites à matrise élastomère, une à une invariantes dans une direction. La forte hétérogénéité des composantes, rendant impossible la modélisation par homogénéisation périodique, contraint à user du couplage d'une technique de sous structuration classique et d'une méthode de sous structuration multiniveau. La taille des calculs oblige à adopter pour les différents constituants un comportement élastique linéaire. Cependant, une première approche d'un terme de dissipation mécanique, dans le cas de sollicitations périodiques, est proposée en vue d'une éventuel couplage thermo-mécanique

This book was released on 2003 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce travail a pour but la mise au point d'une méthodologie de formage virtuel qui consiste à simuler numériquement tous procédés de mise en forme de pièces minces ou massives avec la prise en compte d'un couplage thermo-mécanique-endommagement. Ceci permettra de prévoir l'apparition de l'endommagement ductile au cours du formage des pièces. On pourra ainsi agir sur les paramètres technologiques pertinents du procédé afin soit de retarder cet endommagement pour obtenir des pièces saines, soit au contraire de favoriser celui-ci afin de simuler des opérations de coupe. Une formulation théorique générale du couplage " fort " thermo-élasto-visco-plastique-endommagement est introduite, prenant en compte une loi d'évolution de l'endommagement ductile isotrope. Sur le plan numérique, un soin particulier a été apporté à l'intégration locale des équations d'évolution couplées. Pour résoudre le système global couplé, deux schémas ont été utilisés : (1) un schéma itératif statique implicite associé au calcul analytique de la matrice tangente consistante, (2) un schéma dynamique explicite associé à un contrôle automatique du pas de temps. Une procédure de remaillage adaptatif en grandes déformations a été utilisée en connexion avec le code de calcul par éléments finis ABAQUS. Après une validation sur des essais de traction, une large gamme de procédés, dont certains sont issus de l'industrie, tels que le découpage de tôle, la compression de cylindres, la coupe orthogonale par enlèvement de copeaux est présentée et comparée avec des essais expérimentaux quand cela est possible. La capacité de cette méthodologie de formage virtuel à prédire correctement l'initiation et la propagation de l'endommagement en mise en forme est clairement démontrée

This book was released on 2000 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dans ce travail, nous présentons la formulation d'une théorie covariante de la plasticité et de la viscoplasticité en grandes déformations, sous une base unifiée, qui tient compte des effets d'écrouissage isotrope et cinématique, ainsi que la généralisation de ces modèles aux problèmes couplés thermomécaniques. Nous montrons, par la suite, l'intérêt principal de tels modèles pour traiter les problèmes de localisation de déformations, ainsi que les problèmes tridimensionnels rencontrés dans les applications industrielles. La formulation de tels modèles (visco)plastiques et thermo(visco)plastiques en grandes déformations, incluant la décomposition multiplicative du gradient de déformations, est effectuée dans le repère d'axes principaux, ce qui permet de séparer les effets non-linéaires géométriques des matériels. L'utilisation des axes principaux nous a aussi fourni l'idée clé pour l'introduction du modèle d'écrouissage cinématique en supposant que les variables contrôlant l'écrouissage partagent les mêmes vecteurs propres que le tenseur de déformations. De plus, cette méthodologie d'axes principaux conduit à un calcul très efficace en réduisant les calculs tensoriels en de simples calculs scalaires. En remplaçant les déformations de Green-Lagrange par des déformations logarithmiques, les équations gouvernant le calcul de l'écoulement viscoplastique deviennent formellement les mêmes que celles utilisées pour le cas des petites déformations. La résolution des problèmes couplés thermomécaniques est basée sur une procédure de résolution simultanée qui s'avère très efficace par rapport à une procédure de résolution séquentielle, que ce soit du point de vue de la stabilité de la solution dans le temps ou de la capacité à traiter des problèmes impliquant un transfert de stabilité où la connaissance du module tangent thermomécanique couplé est nécessaire pour une analyse de bifurcation. En outre, nous pallions les problèmes de blocage numérique apparentés aux limitations de quasi-incompressibilité Imposés sur le champ de déformations (visco)plastiques en enrichissant les interpolations isoparamétriques standards par des modes incompatibles. Nous exploitons aussi la méthode d'Operator Split pour éliminer un stockage secondaire associé aux modes incompatibles.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using plant material as raw materials for construction is a relatively recent and original topic of research. This book presents an overview of the current knowledge on the material properties and environmental impact of construction materials made from plant particles, which are renewable, recyclable and easily available. It focuses on particles and as well on fibers issued from hemp plant, as well as discussing hemp concretes. The book begins by setting the environmental, economic and social context of agro-concretes, before discussing the nature of plant-based aggregates and binders. The formulation, implementation and mechanical behavior of such building materials are the subject of the following chapters. The focus is then put upon the hygrothermal behavior and acoustical properties of hempcrete, followed by the use of plant-based concretes in structures. The book concludes with the study of life-cycle analysis (LCA) of the environmental characteristics of a banked hempcrete wall on a wooden skeleton. Contents 1.

This book was released on 1986 with total page 792 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preface Adhesion is a phenomenon architects and civil engineers are not very familiar with. In other disciplines knowledge about surface properties and the background of bonding energies is also far from satisfactory; nevertheless there are many important· applications in concrete engineering, where adhesion is necessary for success and durability. These include: - coating and painting - repair of concrete surfaces - bonding of fresh to old concrete - crack injection - glueing of precast elements - glueing of steel to concrete, etc. In 1981 RILEM established the technical committee 52-RAC 'Resin Adherence to Concrete'. The main aims of the committee's work were - to collect research results and practical experiences - to initiate and coordinate research programs - to develop, on a scientific base, test methods for field and for laboratory purposes. One of the results of the committee's work is a state-of-the-art report, which will be presented orally as a General Report at the International Symposium ISAP '86, and will be printed either in the RILEM journal Materials and Structures or separately. Several test recommendations have been elaborated and will be prepared as drafts for the participants ofISAP '86. These are: - direct tensile test - pull-off test - direct shear test - slant shear test - four-point bending test - dynamic loading test - thermal compatibility test (two versions) - injectibility test.
