Représentation et analyse algébriques de système de solides sur-contraints en boucle fermée / Algebraic representation and analysis of over-constrained closed-loop mechanisms

Ali, Anissa 11 July 2016 (has links)
Un système de solides peut être classé suivant trois états de mobilité: l’état non assemblé, l’état assemblé rigide et l’état assemblé mobile. L’étude se focalise sur les systèmes de solides sur-contraints en boucle fermée. Lors de l’étape de conception ou reconception, les dimensions d’un système de solides sur-contraints sont amenées à être modifiées, ce qui peut avoir pour conséquence la perte de son état de mobilité.L’approche présentée dans cette thèse a pour but de proposer une assistance au concepteur lors du redimensionnement, lui permettant de modifier ou conserver l’état de mobilité d’un système de solides. Le redimensionnement de systèmes de solides sur-contraints nécessite la connaissance de relations dépendant de leurs dimensions: les équations d’assemblage et les conditions de mobilité. Ces relations sont obtenues à l’aide d’un outil de résolution algébrique: les bases de Gröbner. La résolution algébrique est parfois coûteuse, voire impossible en un temps raisonnable, c’est ce qui justifie les méthodes décrites dans cette thèse.La solution proposée est composée de deux étapes principales. Tout d’abord, les représentations algébriques d’un système de solides fermé et mobile sont décrites. Les équations de fermeture d’un système de solides composé de plusieurs boucles sont obtenues en utilisant un paramétrage en coordonnées relatives. Les équations de mobilité sont elles générées à partir des équations de fermeture, à l’aide de méthodes directes ou incrémentales. Ensuite, afin de faciliter la génération des équations d’assemblage et de mobilité, une analyse algébrique reposant sur des outils d’analyse numérique est définie. L’état de mobilité du système de solides à redimensionner est déterminé à partir d’un ensemble de valeurs des paramètres le décrivant. Si le concepteur souhaite modifier l’état de mobilité du système de solides, de nouvelles valeurs sont alors générées. Lorsque l’état de mobilité souhaité est obtenu, il est possible de varier les dimensions tout en conservant cet état. Pour cela, certaines dimensions sont spécialisées afin de faciliter la génération des équations d’assemblage et des conditions de mobilité. Si les paramètres choisis sont liés ou trop nombreux, l’analyse mène inéluctablement à une absence de solutions. Des stratégies de partitionnement pour pallier ces problèmes sont aussi proposées. Enfin, les outils développés dans le logiciel Maple® afin d’illustrer les différents concepts proposés sont présentés, et un outil interactif permettant au concepteur de naviguer sur les équations de fermeture, équations d’assemblage et les conditions de mobilité obtenues après spécialisation, est proposé. / An assembly can be partitioned into three mobility states: the impossible state, the rigid state and the mobile state. The study focuses in over-constrained closed-loop assemblies. During the process of design or re-design, the dimensions of the assembly can vary and this can lead to the loss of its mobility state.The method presented in this thesis aims at helping the designer to resize an assembly. There exist relationships between the dimension of the assembly that ensure the closure and the mobility of over-constrained. These relationships called assembly equations and mobility conditions are hence necessary to resize an over-constrained solid assembly. Assembly equations and mobility conditions are computed by a computer algebra tool: Gröbner bases. However, the algebraic solving using Gröbner bases can be costly and may fail because of unreasonable computing time, this is the main reason of the strategies described in this thesis.The approach proposed in this thesis is composed of two main steps. First of all, an algebraic representation of a closed assembly and a mobile assembly is descibed. The closed-loop equations are written by using a coordinate free method and the mobility equations are generated from the closed-loop equations using direct and incremental methods. To simplify the computation of assembly equations and mobility conditions an algebraic analysis that rely on numerical analysis tools is proposed. Starting from a set of values of the parameters that describe the assembly to resize, the mobility state of the assembly is determined. Then, if the designer want to change the mobility state, a new set of values that have the mobility state chosen by the designer is generated. Once the initial set of values has the right mobility state, some dimensions are specialized to ease the computation of assembly equations and mobility conditions. However, if the parameters chosen are linked or its number is to high, there is a high chance that the study lead to no solution. Strategies to avoid these problems are also proposed. Finally, the tools developped in Maple® software that illustrate the methods proposed are described and an interactive tool that permits the designer to visualize the solutions of the closed-loop equations, assembly equations and mobility conditions computed after specialisation is proposed.

Stochastic Geometry Based Analysis of Capacity, Mobility and Energy Efficiency for Dense Heterogeneous Networks

Merwaday, Arvind 29 March 2016 (has links)
In recent years, the increase in the population of mobile users and the advances in computational capabilities of mobile devices have led to an exponentially increasing traffic load on the wireless networks. This trend is foreseen to continue in the future due to the emerging applications such as cellular Internet of things (IoT) and machine type communications (MTC). Since the spectrum resources are limited, the only promising way to keep pace with the future demand is through aggressive spatial reuse of the available spectrum which can be realized in the networks through dense deployment of small cells. There are many challenges associated with such densely deployed heterogeneous networks (HetNets). The main challenges which are considered in this research work are capacity enhancement, velocity estimation of mobile users, and energy efficiency enhancement. We consider different approaches for capacity enhancement of the network. In the first approach, using stochastic geometry we theoretically analyze time domain inter-cell interference coordination techniques in a two-tier HetNet and optimize the parameters to maximize the capacity of the network. In the second approach, we consider optimization of the locations of aerial bases stations carried by the unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to enhance the capacity of the network for public safety and emergency communications, in case of damaged network infrastructure. In the third approach, we introduce a subsidization scheme for the service providers through which the network capacity can be improved by using regulatory power of the government. Finally, we consider the approach of device-to-device communications and multi-hop transmissions for enhancing the capacity of a network. Velocity estimation of high speed mobile users is important for effective mobility management in densely deployed small cell networks. In this research, we introduce two novel methods for the velocity estimation of mobile users: handover-count based velocity estimation, and sojourn time based velocity estimation. Using the tools from stochastic geometry and estimation theory, we theoretically analyze the accuracy of the two velocity estimation methods through Cramer-Rao lower bounds (CRLBs). With the dense deployment of small cells, energy efficiency becomes crucial for the sustained operation of wireless networks. In this research, we jointly study the energy efficiency and the spectral efficiency in a two-tier HetNet. We optimize the parameters of inter-cell interference coordination technique and study the trade-offs between the energy efficiency and spectral efficiency of the HetNet.
