This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les interactions entre écoulements fluides et ondes acoustiques sont un sujet largement étudié. Or, ces interactions donnent naturellement lieu à des phénomènes non-réciproques. Dans cette thèse de doctorat, nous nous proposons d'exploiter cette propriété dans plusieurs systèmes donnant lieu à des transmissions et réflexions exotiques. Les cas particuliers d'un écoulement linéairement cisaillé entre deux milieux en mouvement uniforme, d'une couche de cisaillement au-dessus d'une paroi admittante et d'un cylindre en rotation entrainant le fluide autour de lui feront l'objet d'études approfondies. À travers des simulations numériques, des études analytiques et des développements asymptotiques l'effet de l'écoulement sera discuté. Celui-ci est en effet susceptible d'agir sur la conservation de l'énergie acoustique dans un système donné, mais aussi sur les caractéristiques (amplitude et direction) du champs acoustique réfléchi. L'ajout d'écoulement jouera en particulier sur plusieurs phénomènes physiques ou applications propres aux systèmes considérés tels que la réfraction négative, l'absorption parfaite, le décalage de Goos-Hänchen, la manipulation de front d'onde, ou encore la présence de modes piégés. Pour chacun de ces phénomènes, les caractéristiques de l'écoulement (nombre de Mach moyen ou épaisseur de couche de cisaillement par exemple) sont variées afin de pouvoir conclure sur leur rôle dans une éventuelle modification, amplification, voire annulation du phénomène.

This book was released on 1995 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CETTE ETUDE EST CONSACREE A L'EXAMEN DES PHENOMENES DE PROPAGATION ET D'ATTENUATION ACOUSTIQUES DANS LES CONDUITS ET LES SILENCIEUX DE SECTION UNIFORME EN PRESENCE DE CHAMPS DE VITESSE ET DE TEMPERATURE MOYENS INHOMOGENES. LA RESOLUTION DES EQUATIONS DECRIVANT LES PHENOMENES EST EFFECTUEE A PARTIR D'UNE METHODE NUMERIQUE DE DIFFERENCES FINIES ET ENVELOPPE D'ONDE. DANS LE CAS D'UNE CONDUITE INFINIE A PAROIS RIGIDES, ON MONTRE L'INFLUENCE DE LA COUCHE LIMITE ET DU GRADIENT DE TEMPERATURE SUR LA REFRACTION DE LA PRESSION ACOUSTIQUE, AINSI QUE LA DISPERSION DU MODE FONDAMENTAL QUI N'EST ALORS PLUS PLAN. ON MET EGALEMENT EN EVIDENCE L'EFFET DES INHOMOGENEITES DU CHAMP MOYEN SUR LES VITESSES DE PHASE ET LES FREQUENCES DE COUPURE ET DE RESONANCE DES MODES DE PROPAGATION. QUAND LES PAROIS SONT ABSORBANTES, ON MONTRE QUE LES PHENOMENES DE REFRACTION INDIQUES PRECEDEMMENT JOUENT UN ROLE TRES IMPORTANT SUR L'ATTENUATION ACOUSTIQUE. EN EFFET, LES ONDES ACOUSTIQUES REFRACTEES VERS LES PAROIS SONT FORTEMENT ATTENUEES ALORS QUE CELLES REFRACTEES VERS LE CENTRE DE LA CONDUITE LE SONT BEAUCOUP MOINS. DANS LE CAS D'UN SILENCIEUX DISSIPATIF DE LONGUEUR FINIE, UN MODELE PERMETTANT DE CALCULER LE COEFFICIENT DE REFLEXION ET LA PERTE PAR TRANSMISSION EST DEVELOPPE. LES RESULTATS NUMERIQUES MONTRENT AINSI QUE LE COEFFICIENT DE REFLEXION RESTE TOUJOURS FAIBLE, CECI ETANT LIE AU CHANGEMENT DE LA NATURE DES PAROIS ABSORBANTES QUI NE CONSTITUE PAS UNE INTERFACE SUSCEPTIBLE DE REFLECHIR LES ONDES ACOUSTIQUES. TOUTEFOIS, L'ABSORPTION EST IMPORTANTE ET LA PRESENCE D'UN ECOULEMENT MOYEN ET D'UN GRADIENT DE TEMPERATURE MODIFIE NOTABLEMENT LES CARACTERISTIQUES ACOUSTIQUES D'UN TEL SILENCIEUX

Download or read book Flexoelectricity in Liquid Crystals written by Agnes Buka and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2013 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book intends to give a state-of-the-art overview of flexoelectricity, a linear physical coupling between mechanical (orientational) deformations and electric polarization, which is specific to systems with orientational order, such as liquid crystals. Chapters written by experts in the field shed light on theoretical as well as experimental aspects of research carried out since the discovery of flexoelectricity. Besides a common macroscopic (continuum) description the microscopic theory of flexoelectricity is also addressed. Electro-optic effects due to or modified by flexoelectricity as well as various (direct and indirect) measurement methods are discussed. Special emphasis is given to the role of flexoelectricity in pattern-forming instabilities. While the main focus of the book lies in flexoelectricity in nematic liquid crystals, peculiarities of other mesophases (bent-core systems, cholesterics, and smectics) are also reviewed. Flexoelectricity has relevance to biological (living) systems and can also offer possibilities for technical applications. The basics of these two interdisciplinary fields are also summarized.

Download or read book Indian Rock Paintings of the Great Lakes written by Selwyn Dewdney and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 1962-12-15 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes in word and illustration the results of an exciting quest on the part of its authors to discover and record Indian rock paintings of Northern Ontario and Minnesota. Numerous drawings were made from these pictographs at a hundred different sites; the originals range in age from four to five hundred years to a thousand, and were done with the simplest materials: fingers for brushes, fine clay impregnated with ferrous oxide giving the characteristic red paint. Where an overhanging rock protected a vertical face from dripping water or on dry, naked rock faces the Indians recorded the forest life with which they lived in intimate association—deer, caribou, rabbit, heron, trout, canoes, animal tracks—and also abstractions which puzzle and intrigue the modern viewer. Many of the paintings could only have been done from a canoe or a convenient rock ledge. Selwyn Dewdney travelled many thousands of miles by canoe to make the drawings of the pictographs which illustrate every page of this fascinating and attractive book. He provides also a general analysis of the materials used by the Indians, of their subject-matter and the artistic rendering given to it, and his artist's journal records in detail the sites he visited, the paintings he found at each, the comparisons among them that came to mind, the references to rock paintings in early literature of the Northwest. Kenneth E. Kidd contributes a valuable essay on the anthropological background of the area, linking the rock paintings with early cave art in, for example, France and Spain, describing the life of the Indians in the Shield country, and commenting on what the pictographs reveal of their makers' attitudes to their external world and of their thinking. This is a book which will appeal to a wide audience: to those interested in primitive art forms and in Canadian art in general, to all students of the early history of North America, to travellers who in increasing numbers follow the canoe trails of the Shield lakes and rivers.
Download or read book Physical Properties of Amorphous Materials written by David Adler and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Institute for Amorphous Studies was founded in 1982 as the international center for the investigation of amorphous mate rials. It has since played an important role in promoting the und er standing of disordered matter in general. An Institute lecture series on "Fundamentals of Amorphous Materials and Devices" was held during 1982-83 with distinguished speakers from universities and industry. These events were free and open to the public ,and were attended by many representatives of the scientific community. The lectures themselves were highly successful inasmuch as they provided not only formal instruction but also an opportunity for vigorous and stimulating debate. That last element could not be captured within the pages of a book I but the lectures concentrated on the latest advances in the field I which is why their essential contents are he re reproduced in collective form. Together they constitute an interdisciplinary status report of the field. The speakers brought many different viewpoints and a variety of back ground experiences io bear on the problems involved I but though language and conventions vary I the essential unity of the concerns is very clear I as indeed are the ultimate benefits of the many-sided approach.
Download or read book Simon Denny written by Simon Denny and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Simon Denny's new body of work for Portikus ranks among the most ambitious the artist has developed to date. Over the period of one year, the artist researched and developed an intricate project that has grown to considerable dimensions -- both physically and in terms of its critical content. For two months, the monumental gallery space is turned into an homage to technology, communication, and the relentless need for innovation. Simon Denny has produced an embracing and multi-faceted installation that functions as a documentary of the South Korean technology giant Samsung and its global success story. The exhibition's title, "New Management", refers to the legendary management philosophy that Lee Kun-hee, Chairman of the Samsung Group, infamously introduced in the early nineties."--Publisher's website.

Download or read book Wim Delvoye written by Wim Delvoye and published by Rectapublishers. This book was released on 2001 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Borrowing its name from the ancient sewer in Rome, Belgian conceptualist Wim Delvoye's new and improved "Cloaca" is a room-sized shit-making machine whose bowels process two meals a day, serving up a mouthful of complex themes: scatalogy and disgust, high and low culture, man as machine and vice-versa, and the inversion of art semiotics. Many of these same concerns are processed in Delvoye's other work, like the life-sized carved walnut replica of a cement truck, the wood cabinet stocked with 32 circular saw blades painted with scenes in Delft China blue, and a herd of pigs tatooed by Antwerp's finest needle-men. Feces and other anal subjects are parsed in accompanying essays by such luminaries as Milan Kundera, Gerardo Mosquera, Dan Cameron, Georges Bataille and Salvador Dali.
