Observations et modélisation de la neige soufflée en Antarctique / Observations and modelisation of blowing and drifting snow over AntarcticaTrouvilliez, Alexandre 14 October 2013 (has links)
L'augmentation de l'accumulation de neige simulée en Antarctique de l'Est pour le siècle à venir est une contribution négative à la hausse du niveau moyen des mers. Les modèles climatiques simulant cette augmentation ne possèdent pas de paramétrisation du transport éolien de neige or ce dernier joue un rôle primordial sur l'accumulation d'après les observations. Les modèles climatiques régionaux possédant une paramétrisation du transport éolien permettent d'estimer l'incertitude des modèles climatiques sur la hausse du niveau moyen des mers en ne représentant pas ce processus. Cependant aucune donnée de transport ne permet une validation précise de ces modèles en Antarctique. Dans ce contexte, cette thèse décrit la constitution d'une base de données de transport éolien de neige en Antarctique ainsi qu'une validation d'un modèle climatique régional incluant le transport éolien de neige. Un instrument acoustique, le FlowCapt, a été choisi pour acquérir les données. Une comparaison avec un appareil de mesure optique du transport, le Snow Particle Counter, a été menée dans les Alpes françaises. Cette comparaison a permis de déterminer les limites des deux générations de FlowCapt existantes pour la détection des événements de transport et la quantification du flux de neige. Une base de données de trois années a été acquise en Terre Adélie, Antarctique, pour permettre une comparaison avec un modèle climatique régional. Elle a permis de calculer la hauteur de rugosité et la vitesse de frottement seuil avec leurs incertitudes. Les épisodes de transport éolien de neige et une borne inférieure de la quantité de neige déplacée en un point ont été estimés. Deux comparaisons ont été menées avec le Modèle Atmosphérique Régional, un modèle climatique régional incluant de nombreuses rétroactions du transport sur l'écoulement. Les deux simulations utilisées pour les comparaisons ont été faites sur un petit domaine à fine échelle sur une période d'un mois. Le modèle simule bien les épisodes de transport sauf lorsque de la fonte s'est produite juste avant un épisode ou lorsque les épisodes ont une hauteur maximale de transport inférieure à cinquante centimètres. Le modèle sous-estime les quantités de neige transportée. / Predicted accumulation by global numerical climate models for the next century increases in East Antarctica and negatively contributes to the mean sea level rise. None of the climate models integrates a blowing snow parametrisation. However few smaller scale regional climate models include a blowing snow parametrisation and thus can assess the climate models uncertainty on the mean sea level rise by not representing this process. Yet none of the blowing snow data available in Antarctica allows for a precise validation of a regional climate model. In this context, this PhD described the establishment of an Antarctica blowing snow database and the validation of a regional climate model including a blowing snow parametrisation. An acoustic blowing snow sensor, the FlowCapt, has been chosen to collect data in Antarctica. A comparison with an optic blowing snow sensor, the Snow Particle Counter, has been conducted in the French Alps. The capacity of the two existing FlowCapt generation has been determined on the blowing snow event and the flux quantification. A three years blowing snow model-oriented database is now available in Adélie Land, Antarctica. The threshold friction velocity and the roughness height have been calculated with their uncertainty. Blowing snow variability has been determined as well as the minimum transport rate at one field point. Two comparisons have been done with the Modèle Atmosphérique Regional (MAR), a regional climate model including a blowing snow parametrisation. Both simulations represent a small domain with a high vertical and horizontal resolution over one month. The model is able to reproduce the blowing snow event except when melting occurs or when the blowing snow height is encompassed within the first fifty centimetres above the ground. The model underestimate the snow quantity transported at the field measurement point.

O objetivo deste trabalho foi espacializar as áreas de risco de inundação em Goiânia,
e identificar as causas e consequências das inundações na bacia do córrego Pedreira. A escolha da área de estudo pautou-se nos recorrentes acidentes registrados na bacia e no
número de pessoas vítimas desses eventos, que é significativo em relação a todas as áreas de risco da capital. Buscou-se analisar as características naturais e de ocupação da área por meio do levantamento de dados, pesquisa bibliográfica, trabalho de campo, mapeamento de características morfológicas e morfométricas da bacia, cartografia de uso da terra, entrevistas com os moradores, delimitação das áreas inundáveis/ acidentes e elaboração do mapa de suscetibilidade. Para o mapeamento adotou-se a escala de 1/20.000. Os resultados levaram à conclusão que as inundações ocorrem devido a condicionantes do meio físico, que são intensificados pela ocupação da bacia. Os condicionantes naturais, relacionados ao meio físico, incluem o regime de chuvas da região, a alta declividade nas porções superiores da encosta, a rugosidade do relevo, as variações hipsométricas, a tendência à concentração de fluxo em alguns segmentos côncavos, a forma da bacia hidrográfica e a existência de planície de inundação a partir da meia bacia. A ocupação, por sua vez, provoca a impermeabilização da bacia hidrográfica, o assoreamento e o estrangulamento da drenagem. Na bacia do córrego Pedreira ocorre ainda a ocupação por moradias irregulares de áreas destinadas à preservação, na planície de inundação às margens do córrego Pedreira. A população, incluindo as crianças, fica então sujeita às ocorrências de inundação.

Monitoring and Prognostics for Broaching Processes by Integrating Process KnowledgeTian, Wenmeng 07 August 2017 (has links)
With the advancement of sensor technology and data processing capacities, various types of high volume data are available for process monitoring and prognostics in manufacturing systems. In a broaching process, a multi-toothed broaching tool removes material from the workpiece by sequential engagement and disengagement of multiple cutting edges. The quality of the final part, including the geometric integrity and surface finish, is highly dependent upon the broaching tool condition. Though there has been a considerable amount of research on tool condition monitoring and prognostics for various machining processes, the broaching process is unique in the following aspects: 1) a broaching process involves multiple cutting edges, which jointly contribute to the final part quality; 2) the resharpening and any other process adjustments to the tool can only be performed with the whole broaching tool or at least a whole segment of the tool replaced.
The overarching goal of this research is to explore how engineering knowledge can be used to improve process monitoring and prognostics for a complex manufacturing process like broaching. This dissertation addresses the needs for developing new monitoring and prognostics approaches based on various types of data. Specifically, the research effort focuses on 1) the use of in-situ force profile data for real-time process monitoring and fault diagnosis, 2) degradation characterization for broaching processes on an individual component level based on image processing; and 3) system-level degradation modeling and remaining useful life prediction for broaching processes based on multiple images. / Ph.

Nuclear Safety related Cybersecurity Impact Analysis and Security Posture MonitoringGupta, Deeksha 05 April 2022 (has links)
The Electrical Power Systems (EPS) are indispensable for a Nuclear Power Plant (NPP). The EPS are essential for plant start-up, normal operation, and emergency conditions. Electrical power systems are necessary not only for power generation, transmission, and distribution but also to supply reliable power for plant operation and control system during safe operation, Design Basis Conditions (DBC) and Design Extension Conditions (DEC). According to IAEA Specific Safety Guide SSG-34, EPS are essentially the support systems of many plant equipment. Electrical system, which supply power to plant systems important to nuclear safety, are essential to the safety of an NPP.
In recent years, due to the digitization of Instrumentation and Control (I&C) systems, along with their enhanced accuracy, ease of implementing complex functions and flexibility, have been also exposed to sophisticated cyber threats. Despite physical separation and redundant electrical power supply sources, malicious cyber-attacks performed by insiders or outsiders might disrupt the power flow and result in an interruption in the normal operation of an NPP. Therefore, for the uninterrupted operation of a plant, it is crucial to contemplate cybersecurity in the EPS design and implementation. Considering multiple cyber threats, the main objectives of this research work are finding out security vulnerabilities in electrical power systems, simulating potential cyber-attacks and analyzing the impacts of these attacks on the electrical components to protect the electrical systems against these cyber-attacks.
An EPS testbed at a small scale was set up, which included commercial I&C and electrical equipment significant for the cybersecurity analysis. The testbed equipment comprises of electrical protection relay (IEC 60255), controller, operating panel, engineering workstation computer, simulation model, etc. to monitor and control the power supply of one or more electrical equipment responsible for a regular operation in an NPP. Simulated cybersecurity attacks were performed using this testbed and the outcomes were examined in multiple iterations, after adding or changing security controls (cybersecurity countermeasures). Analyzing the cybersecurity and performing cyber-attacks on these systems are very advantageous for a real power plant to prepare and protect the plant equipment before any malicious attack happens. This research work conclusively presents cybersecurity analysis, including basic and sophisticated cyber-attack scenarios to understand and improve the cybersecurity posture of EPS in an NPP. The approach was completed by considering the process engineering systems (e.g. reactor core cooling systems) as attack targets and investigating the EPS specific security Defense-in-Depth (DiD) design together with the Nuclear Safety DiD concepts.:CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION
