Application of Growth Strata and Detrital-Zircon Geochronology to Stratigraphic Architecture and Kinematic History

Barbeau, David Longfellow Jr. January 2003 (has links)
Growth strata analysis and detrital-zircon geochronology are useful applications of stratigraphy to tectonic problems. Whereas both tools can contribute to kinematic analyses of supracrustal rock bodies, growth strata are also useful for analyzing the influence of tectonics on stratigraphic architecture. This study reports: 1) a conceptual model for growth strata development; 2) stratigraphic and kinematic analyses of growth strata architectures from growth structures in southeastern Utah, the Gulf of Mexico, and northeastern Spain; and 3) the detrital-zircon geochronology of the Salinian block of central coastal California. Kinematic sequence stratigraphy subdivides growth strata into kinematic sequences that are separated by kinematic sequence boundaries. Kinematic sequences can be further partitioned into kinematic domains based on the termination patterns of strata within a kinematic sequence. Salt- related fluvial growth strata from the Gulf of Mexico and southeastern Utah contain stratigraphic architectures that are unique to different kinematic domains. Offlap kinematic domains contain fluvial strata indicative of high slopes, low accommodation rates, and strong structural influence on paleocurrent direction. Onlap kinematic domains contain fluvial strata indicative of moderate slopes, high accommodation rates, and decreased structural influence on paleocurrent direction. The stratigraphic architecture of alluvial -fan thrust -belt growth strata in northeastern Spain does not display a marked correlation with kinematic domain, and is most easily interpreted using existing models for autocyclic alluvial -fan evolution. Detrital- zircon (U -Pb) geochronologic data from basement and cover rocks of Salinia suggest that Salinia originated along the southwestern margin of North America, likely in the vicinity of the Mojave Desert. The presence of Neoproterozoic and Late Archean detrital zircons in Salinian basement rocks also suggest that Salinian sediments were recycled from miogeoclinal sediments of the western margin of North America.

Les isotopes du lithium, traceurs de la zone critique de la Terre : du local au global / Lithium isotopes as tracers of the critical zone of the Earth : from local to global scales

Henchiri, Soufian 22 September 2017 (has links)
La Zone Critique de la Terre désigne la fine pellicule recouvrant sa surface, à l’interface du cycle de l’eau, de lithosphère et de la biosphère. Cette couche est produite à sa base par altération chimique et détruite à son sommet par érosion mécanique. Parce que le lithium et ses isotopes ont la particularité de se partager entre la phase dissoute et la phase solide au cours des réactions d’interactions eaux-roches, nous explorons, dans cette thèse, le potentiel des isotopes du lithium dissous dans les rivières comme traceurs des processus d’altération chimique des continents. Nous nous sommes focalisés, dans un premier temps, sur le Bassin Congolais. Cette étude met en évidence le caractère équivoque de la réponse de la composition isotopique du Li (δ7Li) dissous des rivières aux topographies plates (et aux intensités d’altération élevées). Deux valeurs extrêmes de δ7Li dissous sont, en effet, produites dans le bassin du Congo, qui tracent deux styles d’altération continentale distincts, dans lesquels les processus d’altération chimique sont différents. D’autre part, nous proposons une nouvelle estimation du flux moyen de Li et de sa composition isotopique moyenne exportés à l’océan par les rivières aujourd’hui (5,5×1010 g.an−1 et 19±2‰, respectivement). Nous montrons que le δ7Li dissous dans les grands fleuves est contrôlé, au premier ordre, par la réincorporation du Li dans les minéraux secondaires (dans les sols et les plaines d’inondation) et, d’une manière équivoque, de l’intensité d’altération. En outre, l’étude des δ7Li dissous dans les rivières drainant les îles volcaniques (Islande, Java, Martinique, Sao Miguel et Réunion) montre que l’hydrothermalisme continental, générant des eaux très concentrées en Li avec une valeur basse de δ7Li (car très peu fractionnée par rapport à la roche mère basaltique), influence le δ7Li dissous des rivières des îles volcaniques et peut avoir un impact significatif sur le flux de Li (et son δ7Li) transféré(s) à l’océan à l’échelle globale. Enfin, nous proposons une interprétation de l’augmentation de l’ordre de 9‰ qu’a connue la signature isotopique du Li de l’eau de mer au cours du Cénozoïque à l’aide d’un modèle de boîtes simple de l’océan et au regard de nos résultats. Il émane de ce travail de thèse que les isotopes du Li dissous dans les rivières prouvent là encore leur capacité à être de bons traceurs des régimes d’altération des roches silicatées continentales (et ce, même en contexte anthropisé, comme le montre notre étude du bassin de l’Orgeval, en Seine-et-Marne). Le Li et ses isotopes constituent donc des traceurs prometteurs de la Zone Critique de la Terre et des paléo-processus d’altération chimique ainsi que de l’évolution géodynamique des continents voire des grands mouvements verticaux affectant la lithosphère continentale / The Critical Zone of the Earth is the layer covering its surface, at the interface between the water cycle, the lithosphere and the biosphere. This layer is produced at its base by chemical weathering and destroyed at its top by mechanical erosion. We explore the potential of lithium isotopes dissolved in rivers as tracers of continental chemical weathering processes as lithium and its isotopes are highly fractionated between the dissolved and solid phases during water-rock interaction processes. First, we are focused on the Congo Bassin. This study demonstrates the equivocal response of the isotopic composition of the riverine dissolved Li isotope compositions (δ7Li) to flat topography (and high weathering intensities). Two extreme values of dissolved δ7Li are produced in the Congo Basin, which trace two distinct continental weathering styles in which chemical weathering processes are different. On the other hand, we refined the mean flux of Li and its average isotopic signature exported to the ocean by rivers today (5.5×1010 g. an-1 et 19±2‰, respectively). We show that dissolved δ7Li in large rivers is controlled, at first-order, by the re-incorporation of Li into secondary weathering minerals (in soils and floodplains) and in, an equivocal way, of the weathering intensity. Moreover, the study of dissolved δ7Li in rivers draining volcanic islands (Iceland, Java, Martinique, Sao Miguel and Reunion) shows that continental hydrothermal activity, producing waters with high Li concentration with low value of δ7Li (as low fractionated towards the basaltic bedrock), influences the dissolved δ7Li in rivers of volcanic islands and can have an impact on the Li flux (and its δ7Li) transferred to the ocean on a global scale. Finally, by using a simple box model of the ocean and our results, we suggest an interpretation of the 9‰ increase of seawater δ7Li during the Cenozoic. This thesis highlights that riverine dissolved Li isotopes confirm once again their capacity to be powerful tracers of the weathering regimes of continental silicate rocks (even in anthropized context, as showed by our study of the Orgeval catchment, in Seine-et-Marne). Li and its isotopes are thus promising tracers of the Critical Zone of the Earth and the chemical weathering paleo-processes as well as the long-term geodynamic evolution of the continents or even the large vertical movements affecting the continental lithosphere

Synthèse et caractérisation de silicates de calcium hydratés hybrides

Minet, Jérôme 02 December 2003 (has links) (PDF)
Dans la nature de nombreux organismes tirent bénéfice de l'association au niveau moléculaire de composants organique et inorganique pour développer des propriétés exceptionnelles. Dans cette étude, nous avons voulu reproduire ce type d'association pour réaliser des matériaux hybrides à base d'hydrates de ciment. Les silicates de calcium hydratés (C-S-H) sont des matériaux lamellaires nanocristallisés, produits de façon majoritaire lors de l'hydratation des ciments ordinaires. Pour réaliser des C-S-H hybrides, nous avons employé une approche de synthèse bio-minérale qui consiste à greffer de façon covalente des radicaux organique sur la surface des feuillets de C-S-H. Pour y parvenir, nous avons développé une méthode de synthèse par voie sol-gel qui consiste à faire précipiter le matériau à partir d'un mélange homogène de précurseurs en solution. Nous avons choisi en particulier d'étudier l'influence de la taille, de la teneur et de la nature des radicaux organiques sur la formation des C-S-H hybrides. Nous avons pour cela employé des radicaux aliphatiques allant du méthyle jusqu'à l'octadécyle, ainsi que le vinyle, le phényle et l'aminopropyle. La caractérisation des matériaux hybrides obtenus s'est faite principalement par l'utilisation de la diffraction des rayons X, de la spectrométrie infrarouge et de la résonance magnétique nucléaire. Ces méthodes d'investigation ont eu pour principal objectif de déterminer la nature les phases hybrides observées. Elles nous ont permis en particulier d'observer la formation de phases adoptant une structure de type C-S-H pour des teneurs et des tailles de radicaux organiques peu importantes. Puis la résonance magnétique nucléaire a été employée afin de démontrer qu'il existait bien une association structurale entre les atomes de silicium portant les radicaux organiques et les autres atomes de silicium. Nous avons ainsi pu montrer que les phases ayant une structure de type C-S-H étaient bien des C-S-H hybrides.

Chromophore Catecholderivate

Riedel, Franziska 02 April 2012 (has links) (PDF)
Gegenstand der vorliegenden Arbeit ist die Synthese und Charakterisierung neuer chromophorer Catecholderivate mit ausgeprägten push-pull-pi-Systemen. Die solvatochromen Eigenschaften dieser Verbindungen werden in Abhängigkeit der Wasserstoffbrückenbindungsdonor- und -akzeptorfähigkeit sowie Lösungsmitteldipolarität diskutiert. Mit entsprechenden methoxy- und dimethoxyfunktionalisierten Catecholderivaten ist es möglich, vergleichende Struktur-Eigenschaftsbeziehungen aufzustellen. Durch Untersuchungen zu den Wechselwirkungen der chromophoren Catechole mit Schwermetallionen kann gezeigt werden, dass die synthetisierten Verbindungen als Sensoren eingesetzt werden können. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird des Weiteren die Adsorption der Catecholderivate an Metalloxide beschrieben. Mit Farbstoffen sensibilisierte Oberflächen stellen derzeit ein interessantes Forschunggebiet dar. Ferner wird über die Umsetzung der Catecholderivate mit Trialkoxysilanen zu zwitterionischen, spirozyklischen, pentakoordinierten lambda5Si-Silicaten sowie mit Tetraalkoxysilanen zu dianionischen, hexakoordinierten lambda6Si-Silicaten berichtet. Besonderes Augenmerk lag dabei auf UV/vis-spektroskopischen Untersuchungen.

O uso adequado do protetor solar minimiza tal risco. Atualmente, a tendência é introduzir materiais naturais, orgânicos ou inorgânicos, na composição dos protetores solares (fotoprotetores), no afã de neutralizar possíveis efeitos colaterais dos materiais sintéticos. Estudos mostraram que argilas (silicatos em camadas) incorporadas aos protetores solares podem bloquear radiação ultravioleta no comprimento de onda entre 250 a 400 nm dependendo da composição da argila. Acompanhando essa linha norteadora é que se baseou a elaboração deste trabalho onde duas argilas foram empregadas na preparação de fotoprotetores e aferida a eficácia em laboratório da Universidade Federal de Campina Grande (UFCG) através da avaliação in vitro por espectrofotometria. As argilas testadas foram a montmorilonita sódica comercial (Cloisite® Na + ) e a bentonítica Argel 35. As formulações foram preparadas em três farmácias de manipulação, em três cidades diferentes, Guarabira, João Pessoa e Campina Grande, no Estado da Paraíba. O método escolhido para avaliação do Fator de Proteção Solar (FPS) foi o método in vitro desenvolvido por Mansur em virtude da ótima correlação com método in vivo, além de apresentar outras vantagens a exemplo do baixo custo e o de se evitar exposição do ser humano a experimentos que possam causar danos à saúde. Antes de avaliar o FPS das formulações preparadas com as argilas foi feita a avaliação do FPS de protetores solares comerciais e foi confirmado que o método in vitro utilizado foi adequado na determinação do FPS de protetores solares. A introdução de argilas na composição dos protetores solares, como materiais naturais, em substituição ao material sintético TiO2 foi eficaz, especialmente para a argila bentonita Argel. A legitimidade em se estudar o efeito fotoprotetor dos materiais argilosos na composição dos protetores solares é justificada por grande relevância social, posto que são de baixo custo, e ainda por serem encontradas com facilidade na natureza. / Non-ionizing radiation (UV-A, UV-B and UV-C) of the sun's electromagnetic spectrum cause diseases to human and must be avoided. The proper use of sunscreen minimizes this problem. Currently, the trend is to introduce natural materials, organic or inorganic, in the composition of sunscreens, in order to neutralize possible side effects of synthetic materials. Studies have shown that clays (layered silicates) incorporated in sunscreens can block ultraviolet radiation in 250 to 400 nm wavelength range depending on the clay composition. Following this guideline, in this work, two clays were used in the preparation of sunscreen and its effectiveness was determined at Universidade Federal de Campina Grande (UFCG) laboratory through in vitro evaluation by spectrophotomery. The clays tested were Cloisite® Na + sodium montmorillonite and Argel 35 bentonite. The formulations were prepared in pharmacies in three different cities, Guarabira, Joao Pessoa and Campina Grande, in Paraíba state. The method chosen to evaluate the Sun Protection Factor (SPF) was in vitro method, developed by Mansur, due to the excellent correlation with in vivo method. Besides, there are other advantages like low cost and less damage to health since the volunteer is not exposed to the experiments. Before the evaluation of SPF of prepared formulations with the clay, the SPF of commercial sunscreens was determined and it was confirmed that the in vitro method was proper to define sunscreen SPF. The introduction of clay in the sunscreens composition, as natural materials, replacing TiO2 synthetic material was effective, especially for Argel bentonite clay. The legitimacy of studying the photoprotective effect of clay materials in the composition of sunscreens is justified by great social relevance, since they are inexpensive and found easily in nature.

Medidas de EDS mostram um aumento da concentração dos íons K+ na superfície com o aumento do tempo de exposição aos vapores. Alguns destes íons migraram para o interior dos vidros, conforme mostram as medidas do perfil de concentração. Os coeficientes de difusão foram determinados utilizando a técnica de Bolztzman-Matano. Esta mudança na concentração de K+ provocou modificações estruturais na superfície, alterando algumas de suas propriedades físico-químicas. Espectros de reflexão no infravermelho foram realizadas nestas amostras e mostraram que as alterações mais pronunciadas ocorreram na banda em tono de 950 cm-1. A dureza Vickers aumenta com o tempo de exposição. O índice de refração foi determinado pelos métodos de Brewster e refratometria Abbe. Constatou-se que quanto maior o tempo de exposição aos vapores, maior o valor do índice de refração das amostras. Foi verificado se esta nova técnica de troca iônica, isto é, por exposição a vapores, é propicia na preparação de dispositivos baseados em guias de ondas planares, utilizando a técnica de acoplamento de prisma. Vidros sintetizados também foram submetidos a testes de dilatometria com o intuito de determinar a temperatura de transição vítrea e calcular o coeficiente de expansão térmica. Medidas de densidade foram realizadas utilizando o principio de Arquimedes. Há diversas evidências experimentais que o estanho incorporado à estrutura vítrea atua como cátion formador de vidros, e que inibe a difusão iônica. / Surfaces of commercial plane glass (floated) and glasses synthesized in laboratory with different concentrations of SnO2 were exposed to vapors resulting from the decomposition of molten KNO3 at temperatures somewhat below the glass transitions. EDS measurements show an increase of the K+ concentration at the surfaces during the time of exposition to the vapors. Some of these ions migrate into the near surface layers of the samples, according to the measured concentration profiles. Diffusion coefficients were determined using the Bolztzman-Matano technique. The changes in concentration promote structural modifications at the surfaces, changing some of the physico-chemical properties of the glasses. Reflectance spectra in the infrared were carried out in these samples and one observe that the most pronounced change occurred around 950 cm-1. The Vickers hardness increases with the exposition time. The refractive index was determined by Brewster method and by Abbe refractometry. The longer the time of exposition to the vapors, the higher was the refractive index of the samples. This new technique of ionic exchange, that is, the exposition to vapors, was tested to verify if it is appropriate to prepare planar waveguide devices, and the coupling prism method was employed. Synthesized glasses were also subjected to dilatometric tests in order to determine the glass transition temperature, Tg, and the average thermal expansion coefficient, a. Density measurements were performed using Archimedes principle. There are several experimental evidences that tin is incorporated in the glass structure as a glass former cation, and it hinders ionic diffusion.

Chemo-mechanical characterization of microstructure phases in cementitious systems by a novel NI-QEDS technique / Caractérisation chimico-mécanique des phases microstructurales de systèmes cimentaires avec la technique novatrice NI-QEDS

Wilson, William January 2017 (has links)
Face à la finitude des ressources de la terre et de sa capacité d’absorption de la pollution, le développement d’écobétons pour un futur industrialisé durable représente un défi majeur de la science du béton moderne. En raison de sa nature hétérogène complexe, les propriétés macroscopiques du béton dépendent fortement des constituants de sa microstructure (ex. silicates de calcium hydratés [C–S–H], Portlandite, inclusions anhydres, porosité, agrégats, etc.). De plus, la nécessité d’une exploitation rapide et optimale des matériaux cimentaires émergents dans les applications industrielles demande de nos jours une meilleure compréhension de leurs particularités chimico-mécaniques à l’échelle micrométrique. Cette thèse vise à développer une méthode de pointe de couplage de la nanoindentation et de la spectroscopie quantitative aux rayons X à dispersion d'énergie (NI-QEDS), puis à fournir une caractérisation chimico-mécanique originale des phases microstructurales présentes dans les matrices réelles de ciments mélangés. La combinaison d’analyses NI-QEDS statistiques et déterministes a ainsi permis d’élargir la compréhension des systèmes avec ciment Portland et ajouts cimentaires (ACs) conventionnels ou alternatifs. Plus spécifiquement, l’étude des C–(A)–S–H (C–S–H incluant l’aluminium ou non) dans différents systèmes à base de ciments mélangés a montré des compositions différentes pour cet hydrate (variations dans les taux de Ca, Si, Al, S et Mg), mais ses propriétés mécaniques n’ont pas été significativement affectées par l’incorporation des ACs dans des dosages typiques. Les résultats présentés ont aussi démontré le rôle important des autres phases imbriquées dans la matrice de C–(A)–S–H, soit les inclusions anhydres dures (ex. le clinker et les ACs) et les autres hydrates tels que la Portlandite et les hydrates riches en aluminium (ex. les carboaluminates) avec des propriétés mécaniques plus élevées que celles des C–(A)–S–H. La thèse est basée sur cinq articles couvrant : (1) une analyse NI-EDS de systèmes incorporant des volumes élevés de pouzzolanes naturelles; (2) le développement de la méthode NI-QEDS; des analyses statistiques NI-QEDS (3) de systèmes avec cendres volantes et laitier, et (4) d’un système combinant ciment, calcaire et argile calcinée; et (5) une exploration déterministe NI-QEDS de systèmes conventionnels et alternatifs incorporant la poudre de verre, le métakaolin, le laitier ou la cendre volante. Finalement, en plus d’avancer les derniers modèles et méthodes micromécaniques, l’outil développé a fourni une perception chimico-mécanique originale des phases microstructurales et de leur arrangement. Le dévoilement de la signature chimico-mécanique de ces pâtes de ciments mélangés particulièrement complexes offre un savoir unique pour l’ingénierie des bétons de demain. / Abstract : Facing the limitedness of the earth’s resources and pollution absorption capacity, the development of eco-concrete for a sustainable industrialized future is one of the major challenges of modern concrete science. Due to its complex heterogeneous nature, the macro-scale properties of concrete strongly depend on the microstructure constituents (e.g., calcium-silicate-hydrates [C–S–H], Portlandite, anhydrous inclusions, porosity, aggregates, etc.). Moreover, the need for rapid and optimal exploitation of emerging binding materials in industrial applications urges today a better understanding of their chemo-mechanical features at the micrometer scale. This thesis aims at developing a state-of-the-art method coupling NanoIndentation and Quantitative Energy-Dispersive Spectroscopy (NI-QEDS), and providing an original chemo-mechanical characterization of the microstructure phases in highly heterogeneous matrices of real blended-cement pastes. The combination of statistical and deterministic NI-QEDS analysis approaches opened new research horizons in the understanding of Portland-cement systems incorporating conventional and alternative supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs). More specifically, the investigations of C–(A)–S–H (C–S–H including aluminum or not) in different blended-cement systems showed variable compositions for this hydrate (i.e., Ca, Si, Al, S and Mg contents), but the mechanical properties were not significantly affected by the incorporation of SCMs in typical dosages. The presented results also showed the important role of the other phases embedded in the C–(A)–S–H matrix, i.e., hard anhydrous inclusions (e.g., clinker and SCMs) and other hydrates such as Portlandite and Al-rich hydrates (e.g., carboaluminates) with mechanical properties higher than those of the C–(A)–S–H. The thesis is based on five articles focusing on: (1) the NI-EDS investigation of high-volume natural pozzolan systems; (2) the development of the NI-QEDS method; the statistical NI-QEDS analyses of (3) fly ash and slag blended-cement systems and of (4) a limestone-calcined-clay system; and (5) the deterministic NI-QEDS exploration of alternative and conventional systems incorporating glass powder, metakaolin, slag or fly ash. Finally, the developed tool not only advanced the latest micromechanical methods and models, but also provided original chemo-mechanical insights on the microstructure phases and their arrangement. Unveiling the chemo-mechanical signature of these highly-complex blended cement pastes further provided unique knowledge for engineering concretes for tomorrow.

No. of bitstreams: 0 / Foram estudados as propriedades de absorção ótica, de termoluminescência e de ressonância paramagnética eletrônica do mineral natural de silicato de nome MONTICELITA do grupo Olivina, para caracterização desse mineral, cuja formula química é CaMgSiO4. A absorção ótica mostrou que há três bandas de absorção em 450 nm, 660 nm e 1050 nm. As duas primeiras bandas, a primeira no azul e a segunda no amarelo-vermelho são responsáveis pela cor verde da Monticelita. Essas duas bandas são consequência do elemento cromo contido no mineral absorver fótons do feixe universal no visível de frequências centradas em 450 nm e 660 nm. A banda em 1050 nm é devido ao Fe2+. As curvas de emissão de uma amostra de Monticelita irradiada com raios gama de doses entre 10 e 1000 Gy apresenta três picos em 150 °C , 270 °C e 370 °C . Pelo método da deconvolução e de várias taxas de aquecimento foram obtidos energia E1=1,35 eV e fator de frequência s1=4,98x1011 s-1 para o pico 270 °C e E2=1,70 eV e s2=1,88x1011 s-1 para pico 370 °C . A irradiação com raios gama de doses entre 5 kGy e 50 kGy produziram pico TL de 380 °C com intensidade TL em função da dose linear e crescente. Este resultado e importante para dosimetria da radiação de altas doses. O espectro EPR de uma amostra natural, mostrou um resultado não esperado e interessante. Além dos sinais típicos de interação hiperfina do Mn2+, um sinal avantajado de g =6,34 indica que o ferro formou moléculas de hematita, Fe2O3. Esse sinal desaparece com aquecimento acima de 800 °C de recozimento, dando origem dipolos magnéticos de Fe3+, que dá origem a um sinal típico em g =2. Esta descrição mostra bem a caracterização do mineral Monticelita. / Dissertação (Mestrado em Tecnologia Nuclear) / IPEN/D / Instituto de Pesquisas Energéticas e Nucleares - IPEN-CNEN/SP

No. of bitstreams: 0 / No presente trabalho foram estudados alguns efeitos causados pelo jateamento por granalhas no aço Cr-Si-V, processo que tem por objetivo aumentar a resistência à fadiga. Para este estudo a variação de parâmetros no processo são ferramentas para melhor compreender os mecanismos que influenciam esta propriedade. Os parâmetros utilizados neste trabalho foram a variação da granalha e o pré tensionamento das amostras aplicados em lâminas utilizadas em feixe de molas automobilísticas de aço de liga cromo silício vanádio (SAE 9254+V). Inicialmente foi realizada a avaliação do perfil de tensão residual, efetuada por difração de raios-x pelo método do sen2 ao longo da espessura na região onde a tensão é compressiva. Nos resultados nota-se um efeito anômalo em relação ao perfil característico da distribuição de tensão residual com a perda de compressão nas camadas iniciais em relação à superfície jateada. Com o uso da microscopia eletrônica de varredura foi observado a região afetada pelo jateamento por granalhas notando que as regiões plasticamente deformadas se encontram nas mesmas regiões onde ocorre a diminuição da tensão residual compressiva. O perfil obtido pela difração de raios-x fornece as informações necessárias com o propósito de conjugar os efeitos que a microtensão (microdeformação) influenciam na macrotensão (tensão residual). Esta relação foi comprovada pela sobreposição dos resultados encontrados na distribuição da microdeformação da rede cristalina com a tensão residual ao longo da espessura na região plasticamente deformada. Os resultados dos perfis das difrações de raios-x mostraram a existência de anisotropia de tensões entre os planos, geradas por defeitos de empilhamento e pela densidade de discordâncias. Assim sendo, para obter os valores das microtensões devem ser considerados os fatores das constantes elásticas (conforme o módulo das direções) e dos planos cristalográficos. O método aplicado foi o Williamson-Hall modificado. Além deste método outros também foram utilizados, tais como: método de Warren-Averbach e o método Single Line, este aplicando a série de Fourier, porém, ao observar os resultados, nota-se a diferença entre os valores obtidos nas deformações, tanto aos métodos quanto aos planos cristalográficos, porém a ênfase deste trabalho foi dada às características dos perfis da distribuição e não aos valores absolutos. Somando a isto, foi proporcionado o estudo da distribuição do tamanho médio de cristalito ao longo da espessura no perfil das difrações de raios-x e os resultados mostraram que esta distribuição varia de forma inversa a microdeformação. A relação entre o tamanho médio de cristalito e a variação das distâncias interplanares corresponde diretamente a alterações das densidades de discordâncias ocorridas no material que por sua vez estão ligadas às microdeformações da rede cristalina. Como complemento ao trabalho foram analisados o fator de concentração de tensão e ensaios de fadiga do material. O fator de concentração de tensão não variou conforme a utilização das granalhas S330 e S390, ambas sendo aplicadas no mesmo regime de jateamento. Os ensaios de fadiga indicaram que o pré tensionamento aumenta a vida útil nas tensões cíclicas do material estudado. / Tese (Doutorado em Tecnologia Nuclear) / IPEN/T / Instituto de Pesquisas Energeticas e Nucleares - IPEN-CNEN/SP

Nous avons étudié des magmas ferrifères silicatés magnésiens à la pression du manteau terrestre en utilisant la dynamique moléculaire (First Principles Molecular Dynamics). Les résultats de l’équation d’état que nous avons obtenus à partir de nos simulations ont été utilisés pour créer un modèle chimique et minéralogique pour les zones de très basse vitesse sismique (ULVZ, anomalies régionales dans le manteau proche de la limite noyau-manteau). De plus, nous avons étudié le comportement du Ni, du Co et du Fe dans ces magmas et établi la dépendance du spin en fonction de la concentration, de la pression, de la température et du degré de polymérisation du magma silicaté. Nous avons montré qu’une baisse du spin moyen peut être corrélée au changement de pente (kink) observé précédemment pour les coefficients de partage du Ni et du Co. Nous avons analysé la structure du magma pour toutes les compositions étudiées en fonction de la pression. Nos résultats donnent un nouvel aperçu de la coordination des éléments majeurs et traces dans les magmas silicatés de différents degrés de polymérisation. Nous interprétons l’anomalie de coordination Ni-O en fonction de la pression comme un changement d’état de spin. L’effet de la polymérisation du magma silicaté sur les coefficients de partage du Co, du Ni et du W entre le métal et le magma silicaté a été étudié par expériences multi-enclumes en conditions isobares et isothermes. Nous avons réalisé des simulations FPMD de magmas à des degrés de polymérisation similaires aux expériences afin d’expliquer le caractère de plus en plus lithophile du W lorsque le degré de polymérisation du magma silicaté diminue. Nous proposons une explication structurale pour expliquer l’affinité décroissante apparente du W dans les magmas silicatés dépolymérisés. / We explore Fe-bearing Mg-silicate melts through the pressure regime of the Earth’s mantle using First Principles Molecular Dynamics (FPMD). The equation of state results we obtained from our simulations are used to create a chemical and mineralogical model for Ultra-Low Velocity Zones (anomalous region on the mantle side of the core-mantle boundary). Furthermore we study the behaviour of Ni, Co, and Fe in these melts, and asses their spin-crossover dependencies on their concentration, pressure, temperature, and the degree of polymerization of the silicate melts. We show that a decrease in the average spin can be correlated with the previously observed kink in the partitioning coefficient of Ni and Co. We investigate the melt structure of all the compositions studied as a function of pressure. Our results provide new insight into the coordination of major and trace elements in silicate melts with different degrees of polymerization. We interpret the anomalous Ni-O coordination trend with pressure as the result of the spin state change. The effect of silicate melt polymerization on the partitioning of Co, Ni, and W between a metal and silicate melt, is investigated at isobaric and isothermic conditions using multi-anvil experiments. We have performed FPMD simulations of melts with similar degrees of polymerization as the experiments in order to explain the increasing lithophile character of W with the decrease in polymerization of the silicate melt. We propose a structural explanation for tungsten’s apparent increased affinity for depolymerized silicate melts.
