Previous issue date: 2010-07-22 / CAPES - Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / The dissertation now presented has the objective to accomplish a study about the use of
constructions and demolitions waste (CDW) as coarse aggregate in asphalt concrete,
searching for environmental and technical solution to the historical stony aggregate lack in the
city of Manaus-AM. The research displays peculiar characteristics of the alternative material,
comparing with the pebble, usual element in the asphalt mixtures regionally used. It was
conducted the dosage of a mixture with pebble and another one with CDW, fulfilling the
function of coarse aggregates, keeping the other elements: CAP 50/70 as binder, residual sand
as fine aggregate, Portland cement as filler. The gradation definition was made by the Bailey
Method, enabling the obtainment of a structural skeleton that privileged the grains
interlocking, allowing a study of the form and superficial texture influence in the mixture
mechanical behavior. As performance markers was made tests of Tensile Strength (TS), Loss
of Resistance by Induced Moisture (Lottman Test), Resilient Modulus (RM), Fluency for
Axial Compression (creep), by static and dynamic method. Temperature was varied in all
assays, excepted for the Lottman, objecting to investigate the sensitivity of the mixtures to
this factor. All the procedures had its results considered as for the resistance and
deformability. The viability of the use of the CDW as aggregate in asphalt concrete was
evidenced, in substitution to the pebble, because the alternative material revealed, for the most
part of the tests, more stability under temperatures higher than 25°C. Its tensile strength was
higher than of the pebble, independently of the temperature or the load speed. The Resilient
Modulus and the deformation accumulated in the fluency tests demonstrated that, for the
typical service temperatures of Manaus (around 40°C), the alternative mixture has better
performance than one with natural material. However, CDW showed more susceptibility for
the moisture action. It was concluded, based on the results, which the irregular form and the
rugous superficial texture of the residue aggregate were responsible for an increase in the
friction between particles in the structural skeleton of the mixture collaborating with the shear
strength, especially for the highest temperatures of operation, when the viscous phase
introduce great influence in the mechanical behavior. / A dissertação ora apresentada tem por objetivo realizar estudo sobre a utilização de resíduos
de construções e demolições (RCD) como agregado graúdo em concreto asfáltico, buscando
solução técnica e ambiental para a carência histórica de agregados pétreos no município de
Manaus-AM. A pesquisa expõe características peculiares do material alternativo, comparando
com o seixo rolado, elemento usual nas misturas asfálticas utilizadas regionalmente. Realizouse
a dosagem de uma mistura com seixo e outra com RCD, cumprindo a função de agregado
graúdo, mantendo os demais partícipes constantes: CAP 50/70 como ligante, areia residual
como agregado miúdo, cimento Portland como material de enchimento. A definição da
granulometria foi feita por meio do Método de Bailey, possibilitando definir um esqueleto
estrutural que privilegiasse o intertravamento dos grãos, de modo a estudar a influência da
forma e textura superficial no comportamento mecânico da mistura. Como balizadores do
desempenho foram realizados ensaios de Resistência à Tração (RT), Perda de Resistência por
Umidade Induzida (Ensaio Lottman), Módulo de Resiliência (MR), Fluência por Compressão
Axial (creep) estático e dinâmico. Variou-se a temperatura em todos os ensaios, a exceção do
Lottman, de modo a investigar a sensibilidade das misturas a este fator. Todos os
procedimentos tiveram seus resultados julgados quanto à resistência e deformabilidade. Foi
constatada a viabilidade do uso do RCD em concreto asfáltico, em substituição ao seixo, uma
vez que o material alternativo mostrou-se, na maior parte dos ensaios, mais estável sob
temperaturas maiores que 25°C. Sua resistência à tração foi mais alta que a do seixo,
independentemente da temperatura ou da velocidade de carregamento. O Módulo de
Resiliência e a deformação acumulada nos ensaios de fluência demonstraram que, para as
temperaturas de serviço típicas de Manaus (em torno de 40°C), a mistura alternativa tem
melhor desempenho que aquela contendo material natural. Contudo, o RCD se mostrou mais
susceptível à ação da umidade. Concluiu-se, baseado nos resultados, que forma irregular e a
textura superficial rugosa do agregado de resíduo foi responsável por um aumento no atrito
entre as partículas no esqueleto estrutural da mistura, colaborando com a resistência ao
cisalhamento, especialmente para as temperaturas mais altas de operação, quando a fase
viscosa apresenta grande influência no comportamento mecânico.

Estudo em laboratório e em campo de misturas asfálticas SMA 0/8S. / Study in laboratory and field of asphalt mixtures SMA 0/8S.Patricia Barboza da Silva 29 August 2005 (has links)
Esta pesquisa foi baseada em um projeto de Stone Matrix Asphalt - SMA na faixa 0/8S com asfalto CAP 20, feito para a execução de revestimento delgado em trecho experimental na Rodovia Presidente Dutra, ligando São Paulo ao Rio de Janeiro. A ocorrência de alguns defeitos neste trecho experimental motivou o estudo de misturas SMA 0/8S alternativas empregando dois asfaltos convencionais: CAP 20 e CAP 50/60, e dois modificados por polímeros: um com 3,0% de SBS e outro com 6,5% de SBS. Foram realizados ensaios laboratoriais para a verificação da dosagem das misturas asfálticas e determinação de propriedades mecânicas em laboratório por meio de ensaios de deformação permanente em trilha de roda, de resistência à tração por compressão diametral e de módulo de resiliência. Observou-se que o uso de asfalto modificado por polímero e do asfalto convencional CAP 50/60 acarreta uma redução significativa de afundamentos em trilha de roda. O módulo de resiliência a 25°C também apresenta redução de valor nas amostras com asfalto modificado por polímero e com CAP 50/60, em comparação com o convencional CAP 20. A resistência à tração sofre pouca variação quando se comparam os asfaltos empregados, considerando-se ensaios realizados na mesma temperatura. Foram feitos ensaios em campo para a avaliação funcional e de aderência no trecho experimental da Rodovia Presidente Dutra, tendo sido realizados monitoramentos logo após a execução do trecho e decorridos 2 anos e 7 meses de operação. Os resultados demonstraram que o revestimento do trecho experimental apresenta atualmente poucos defeitos de superfície, com fechamento da macrotextura nas trilhas de roda e pequena diminuição do conforto ao rolamento. / This research was based on a Stone Matrix Asphalt SMA in the band 0/8S design made with asphalt binder AC 20, used as a thin wearing course of a test section on the Presidente Dutra Highway, that connects São Paulo to Rio de Janeiro. The occurrence of some distresses in the test section motivated the study of alternative SMA 0/8S mixtures using two conventional asphalt binders: AC 20 and AC 50/60, and two modified by polymer: one with 3.0% of SBS and other with 6.5% of SBS. Laboratory tests were conducted to verify the mix design and to determine their mechanical behavior such as the resistance against rutting, the indirect tensile strength and the resilient modulus. It was observed that the use of SBS polymer modified binders and asphalt binder AC 50/60 causes a significant reduction of rutting. The resilient modulus at 25°C also presents a reduction in the samples with SBS polymer modified binders and AC 50/60 in comparison with AC 20. The indirect tensile strength suffers little variation across the different types of asphalt binders, tested at the same temperature. Field tests related to functional evaluation and skid-resistance of the test section were carried out. The test section was monitored immediately following the construction and after 2 years and 7 months of continuous use. The results showed that the wearing coarse presented a few distresses in the surface, in particular a reduction of the macrotexture at the wheel tracks and a slight worsening of the riding quality.

Previous issue date: 2011-05-05 / Fundo Mackenzie de Pesquisa / The ballistic-resistant glass is composed of layers of glass, polycarbonate or the like, or a polyurethane and poly(vinyl butyral) resin through an autoclaving process joins materials by obtaining the desired properties. The thickness and the quantity of blades vary with the level of ballistic resistance to be attained. Each manufacturer has its own composition and the Brazilian Army is responsible for certification of glasses. The delamination occurs with aging of the glass with ballistic resistance. Knowledge of the change in mechanical properties due to delamination of the glass is an important data due to use of they. Were compared the properties of glass samples irradiated by gama irradiation with glass samples not irradiated. The tests used were atomic absorption spectrometry, hardness, compression, flexure stress rupture testing, and testing ballistic tunnel test according to standard ballistic - NBR 15000. The data showed that samples irradiated are less resistant in tensile strength and ballistic test. / O vidro com resistência balística é composto por camadas de vidro, policarbonato ou similares, poliuretano e poli(vinil butiral) e uma resina que por meio de um processo de autoclavagem une os materiais obtendo as propriedades desejadas. As espessuras bem como, a quantidade de lâminas variam de acordo com o nível de resistência balística que se deseja alcançar. Cada fabricante possui sua própria composição sendo o Exército Brasileiro o responsável pela certificação dos vidros com resistência balística. A delaminação ocorre com o envelhecimento do vidro com resistência balística. O conhecimento da alteração das propriedades mecânicas relacionado a delaminação do vidro é um importante dado em razão da utilização dos mesmos. Compararam-se as propriedades das amostras de vidro exposto à radiação gama com amostras de vidro não irradiados. Os ensaios utilizados foram espectrometria de absorção atômica, dureza, compressão, tensão de ruptura à flexão em três pontos e o ensaio balístico em túnel de prova segundo a norma de balística - NBR 15000. Os dados mostraram que as amostras irradiadas possuíam menor resistência no ensaio de flexão em três pontos e também apresentaram menor resistência no ensaio balístico.

Caracterização geométrica e mecânica de macrofibras poliméricas. / Geometric and mechanical characterizationn of polymeric macrofibers.Alan Renato Estrada Cáceres 11 November 2015 (has links)
Uma grande diversidade de macrofibras poliméricas para reforço de concreto se encontram disponibilizadas hoje em dia. Por natureza estas fibras apresentam grande diversidade de características e propriedades. Estas variações afetam sua atuação como reforço no concreto. No entanto, não há normas brasileiras sobre o assunto e as metodologias de caracterização de normas estrangeiras apresentam divergências. Algumas normas definem que a caracterização do comportamento mecânico deva ser feita nos fios originais e outras que se devam utilizar métodos definidos para caracterização de materiais metálicos. A norma EN14889-2:2006 apresenta maior abrangência, mas deixa dúvidas quanto à adequação dos critérios de caracterização geométrica das fibras e não define um método de ensaio específico para sua caracterização mecânica. Assim, há a necessidade de estabelecimento de uma metodologia que permita a realização de um programa de controle de qualidade da fibra nas condições de emprego. Esta metodologia também proporcionaria uma forma de caracterização do material para estudos experimentais, o que permitiria maior fundamentação científica desses trabalhos que, frequentemente, fundamentam-se apenas em dados dos fabricantes. Assim, foi desenvolvido um estudo experimental focando a caracterização de duas macrofibras poliméricas disponíveis no mercado brasileiro. Focou-se o estudo na determinação dos parâmetros geométricos e na caracterização mecânica através da determinação da resistência à tração e avaliação do módulo de elasticidade. Na caracterização geométrica foi adotada como referência a norma europeia EN14889-2:2006. As medições do comprimento se efetuaram por dois métodos: o método do paquímetro e o método de análise de imagens digitais, empregando um software para processamento das imagens. Para a medição do diâmetro, além das metodologias mencionadas, foi usado o método da densidade. Conclui-se que o método do paquímetro, com o cuidado de esticar previamente as macrofibras, e o método das imagens digitais podem ser igualmente utilizados para medir o comprimento. Já parar determinar o diâmetro, recomenda-se o método da densidade. Quanto à caracterização mecânica, foi desenvolvida uma metodologia própria a partir de informações obtidas de outros ensaios. Assim, efetuaram-se ensaios de tração direta nas macrofibras coladas em molduras de tecido têxtil. Complementarmente, foi avaliado também o efeito do contato abrasivo das macrofibras com os agregados durante a mistura em betoneira no comportamento mecânico do material. Também se avaliou o efeito do método de determinação da área da seção transversal nos resultados medidos no ensaio de tração da fibra. Conclui-se que o método proposto para o ensaio de tração direta da fibra é viável, especialmente para a determinação da resistência à tração. O valor do módulo de elasticidade, por sua vez, acaba sendo subestimado. A determinação da área da seção da fibra através do método da densidade forneceu também os melhores resultados. Além disso, comprovou-se que o atrito das fibras com o agregado durante a mistura compromete o comportamento mecânico, reduzindo tanto a resistência quanto o módulo de elasticidade. Assim, pode-se afirmar que a metodologia proposta para o controle geométrico e mecânico das macrofibras poliméricas é adequada para a caracterização do material. / A wide variety of synthetic macrofibers for concrete reinforcement are available nowadays. By nature, these fibers exhibit great diversity of properties and characteristics. These variations affect its performance as reinforcement in concrete. However, there are no Brazilian standards on the subject and characterization methodologies available in foreign standards present divergences. Some standards define that the characterization of the mechanical behavior should be made in the original filaments and others that the test should be performed according methods for metallic materials characterization. The standard EN14889-2:2006 provides greater coverage about the subject, but leaves doubts about the suitability of the geometric characterization criteria of the fibers and does not set a specific testing method for its mechanical characterization. Thus, there is a need to establish a methodology that allows to carry out a quality control program of the fiber in the onsite conditions. This approach would also provide a way of materials characterization for experimental studies, which would allow better scientific basis of these works, which often rely exclusively on data taken from manufacturers. Thus, an experimental study focusing on the characterization of two polymer macrofibers available in Brazil was developed. The study aims at the determination of the geometrical and mechanical characteristics, such as the tensile strength and the elastic modulus. The geometric characterization was based on the prescriptions of the European standard EN14889- 2:2006. Measurements of length were made by two methods: the caliper method and digital image analysis method, employing software for image processing. For the measurement of the diameter, besides the aforementioned methodologies, the density method was also used. It is concluded that the caliper method, taking care to stretch the macrofibers previously, and the method of digital images can also be used to measure the length. To determine the diameter, it is recommended the density method. As for the mechanical characterization, a methodology was developed taking in consideration the previous information related to other tests. Thus, the direct tensile test was carried out in macrofibers glued in textile fabric frames. In addition, it was also evaluated the effect of the abrasive contact of macrofibers with the aggregates during mixing on the mechanical behavior of the material. Also, the effect of the method of determining the cross-sectional area in the results measured in fiber tensile test was evaluated. It is concluded that the proposed method for direct tensile test of the fiber is feasible, especially for tensile strength assessment. The value of the modulus of elasticity, in turn, has been underestimated. The determination of the fiber section area through the density method also gave the best results. Furthermore, it was found that the friction of the fibers with aggregate during mixing compromises the mechanical behavior reducing both strength and elastic modulus. Thus, it can be said that the proposed methodology for the geometric and mechanical control of polymer macrofibers is suitable for the material characterization.

Försämrade materialegenskaper i aluminiumkonstruktioner - Liquid Metal Embrittlement inducerat av gallium / Deteriorated material properties of aluminium structures – Liquid Metal Embrittlement induced by galliumTheorin, Anders January 2016 (has links)
Denna studie undersöker möjligheten att påverka fientliga konstruktioner genom användandet av en effektiv metod, som kan medge en liten risk att upptäckas. Den tänkta påverkan uppnås genom fenomenet Liquid Metal Embrittlement (LME), med vilken höghållfasta metaller kan påverkas så mycket att de kollapsar av sin egenvikt. Uppsatsen studerar LME på ett ofta använt konstruktionsmaterial både civilt som militärt. Ett experiment genomfördes i syfte att undersöka effekterna av LME på en aluminiumlegering, där en aluminiumdetalj exponerades för metallen gallium. Förförsök genomfördes i syfte att undersöka inom vilka tidsförhållanden LME uppstod och experimentets exponeringstider planerades därefter. Efter varje exponeringstid genomfördes ett dragprov för att påvisa en minskad hållfasthet och seghet hos aluminiumet. Resultatet blev en stor minskning av hållfasthet och seghet, där hållfastheten sänktes till 20% av referensvärdet och segheten till 1% av referensvärdet, även om resultatet var spritt. / The possibility to damage enemy constructions using an efficient method, which might permit a low risk of detection, is studied in this thesis. This damage is based on the phenomena Liquid Metal Embrittlement (LME) with which high strength metals can be affected so much that they collapse under their own weight. This thesis studies this effect in a material often used for various constructions, both civilian and military. An experiment was conducted in order to evaluate the effects of LME on an aluminium alloy by exposing the aluminium to the metal known as gallium. A pre-experiment was made in order to determine how the time of exposure affected the LME-process and time-periods were decided accordingly. At each of the timeperiods a yield test was conducted in order to measure losses in strength and elasticity of the aluminium. It was shown that a great reduction in strength and elasticity occurred, where the strength was reduced to 20% of the reference sample and elasticity to 1% of the reference sample.

Strength grading of structural timber and EWP laminations of Norway spruce : Development potentialsOscarsson, Jan January 2012 (has links)
Strength grading of structural timber is a process by which value is added to sawn products. It is to the greater part carried out using machine grading based on statistical relationships between so called indicating properties and bending strength. The most frequently applied indicating property (IP) on the European market is the stiffness in terms of average modulus of elasticity (MOE) of a timber piece, although MOE is a material property that varies within timber. A major limitation of today’s grading methods is that the described relationships are relatively poor, which means that there is a potential for more accurate techniques. The main purpose of this research has been to initiate development of more accurate and efficient machine grading methods. Strength of timber is dependent on the occurrence of knots. At the same time, knot measures applied as indicating properties until today have shown to be poor predictors of strength. However, results from this research, and from previous research, has shown that not only size and position of knots but also fibre deviations in surrounding clear wood are of great importance for local stiffness and development of fracture under loading. Thus, development of new indicating properties which take account of knots as well as properties of surrounding fibres, determined on a very local scale, was considered as a possible path towards better strength grading. In the research, results from contact-free deformation measurements were utilized for analysis of structural behaviour of timber on both local and global level. Laser scanning was used for detection of local fibre directions projected on surfaces of pieces. Scanned information, combined with measures of density and average axial dynamic MOE, was applied for calculation of the variation of local MOE in the longitudinal board direction. By integration over cross-sections along a piece, a stiffness profile in edgewise bending was determined and a new IP was defined as the lowest bending MOE along the piece. For a sample of Norway spruce planks, a coefficient of determination of 0.68 was achieved between the new IP and bending strength. For narrow side boards to be used as laminations in wet-glued glulam beams, the relationship between IP and tensile strength was as high as 0.77. Since the intended use of the narrow boards was as laminations in wet-glued beams, the possibility of grading them in a wet state was also investigated. Grading based on axial dynamic excitation and weighing gave just as good results in a wet state as when the same grading procedure was applied after drying. It was also found that the relationship between the new IP and strength was dependent on what scale the IP was determined. Optimum was reached for moving average MOE calculated over lengths corresponding with approximately half the width of investigated pieces. Implementation of the new IP will result in grading that is more accurate than what is achieved by the great majority of today’s grading machines. The new method will probably also be particularly favourable for development of engineered wood products made of narrow laminations. / Hållfasthetssortering av konstruktionsvirke innebär att värdet på sågade produkter ökar. Sorteringen genomförs oftast med maskinella metoder baserade på statistiska samband mellan s.k. indikerande egenskaper och böjhållfasthet. Den indikerande egenskap (indicating property, IP) som är vanligast på den Europeiska marknaden är styvhet uttryckt som ett medelvärde för elasticitetsmodulen (modulus of elasticity, MOE) i ett virkesstycke, trots att MOE är en materialegenskap som varierar i virket. En betydande begränsning med dagens sorteringsmetoder är att de beskrivna sambanden är förhållandevis svaga, vilket innebär att det finns en potential för metoder med högre noggrannhet. Det huvudsakliga syftet med detta doktorandprojekt har varit att initiera en utveckling mot sådana metoder. Hållfasthet hos virke är beroende av förekomst av kvistar. Samtidigt har de kvistmått som fram till idag kommit till användning visat sig vara dåliga prediktorer av hållfasthet. Resultat från såväl denna som tidigare forskning har dock visat att inte bara kvistars storlek och läge, utan också variationen i fiberriktning i omgivande träfibrer, är av stor betydelse för lokal styvhet och brottförlopp under inverkan av last. Utveckling av nya IP som tar hänsyn till såväl kvistar som omgivande träfibrers egenskaper fastställda på mycket lokal nivå bedömdes vara en möjlig väg för att uppnå bättre hållfasthetssortering. I detta doktorandprojekt användes beröringsfri deformationsmätning för analys av det strukturella beteendet hos virkesstycken på såväl lokal som global nivå. Laserskanning utnyttjades för detektering av lokala fiberriktningar projicerade på virkesstyckenas ytor. Med utgångspunkt från skannad information, virkesdensitet och medelvärde för axiell dynamisk elasticitetsmodul kunde variationen i lokal elasticitetsmodul i virkesstyckenas längdriktning bestämmas. Genom integration över tvärsektioner längs ett virkesstycke kunde en profil över hur böjstyvheten i styva riktningen varierade i virkesstyckets längdriktning beräknas. En ny IP definierades som den lägsta elasticitetsmodulen i böjning utmed virkesstyckets längd. För ett urval av granplankor erhölls en förklaringsgrad på 0.68 mellan den nya indikerande egenskapen och böjhållfasthet. För smala sidobrädor avsedda att användas som lameller i våtlimmade limträbalkar var motsvarande förklaringsgrad mellan samma IP och draghållfasthet så hög som 0.77. Eftersom sidobrädorna var avsedda att användas som lameller i våtlimmade balkar genomfördes en studie avseende möjligheten att hållfasthetssortera i vått tillstånd med hjälp av axiell dynamisk excitering och vägning. Det visade sig att sådan sortering gav lika bra resultat som då samma metod användes efter torkning. Sambandet mellan den nya indikerande egenskapen och hållfasthet visade sig också vara beroende av på vilken lokal nivå som egenskapen beräknades. Optimum uppnåddes då den bestämdes som ett glidande medelvärde beräknat över en längd motsvarande ungefär halva virkesstyckets höjd. Implementering av den nya sorteringsmetoden kommer att resultera i sortering som är noggrannare än vad som kan erhållas med det stora flertalet av de sorteringsmetoder som finns idag. Den nya indikerande egenskapen kommer sannolikt att bli särskilt gynnsam att använda för utveckling av ingenjörsmässiga träprodukter bestående av smala lameller.

Suivi par émission acoustique de la compaction de particules fragiles d' UO2 / Acoustic emission during the compaction of brittle UO2 particles.Hegron, Lise 12 November 2014 (has links)
Une option à l'étude pour le recyclage des actinides mineurs consiste à en incorporer environ 10% à une matrice d'UO2. La présence de pores ouverts interconnectés au sein de ce combustible devrait permettre d'évacuer l'hélium et les gaz de fission pour prévenir le gonflement de la pastille et in fine son interaction avec la gaine qui l'entoure. La mise en oeuvre des actinides mineurs oblige à travailler en cellule blindée, à minimiser leur rétention et à proscrire les ajouts de produits organiques. L'emploi de particules fragmentables de quelques centaines de micromètres paraît une solution intéressante pour contrôler la microstructure des comprimés crus et ainsi maîtriser la porosité ouverte après frittage. L'étude consiste à suivre par émission acoustique la compaction de particules fragiles d'UO2 et à relier leurs caractéristiques à la porosité ouverte obtenue après frittage des compacts. Le signal acquis lors d'essais de cisaillement sur des granulés individuels et sur des compacts montre que l'émission acoustique autorise la détection de la fragmentation et permet l'identification d'une forme d'onde caractéristique. Les influences de la contrainte de compaction, de la distribution granulométrique initiale et de la cohésion interne des granulés, sur la tenue mécanique des compacts et sur la microstructure des frittés, en particulier sur la porosité ouverte sont analysées. Moyennant quelques précautions, l'émission acoustique, par sa capacité à déterminer le domaine de fragmentation des granulés pendant la mise en forme, paraît une technique prometteuse pour suivre la compaction de particules fragiles en vue de la fabrication de combustibles à porosité maîtrisée. / One of the options considered for recycling minor actinides is to incorporate about 10% to UO2 matrix. The presence of open pores interconnected within this fuel should allow the evacuation of helium and fission gases to prevent swelling of the pellet and ultimately its interaction with the fuel clad surrounding it.Implementation of minor actinides requires working in shielded cell, reducing their retention and outlawing additions of organic products. The use of fragmentable particles of several hundred micrometers seems a good solution to control the microstructure of the green compacts and thus control the open porosity after sintering.The goal of this study is to monitor the compaction of brittle UO2 particles by acoustic emission and to link the particle characteristics to the open porosity obtained after the compact sintering.The signals acquired during tensile strength tests on individual granules and compacts show that the acoustic emission allows the detection of the mechanism of fragmentation and enables identification of a characteristic waveform of this fragmentation.The influences of compaction stress, of the initial particle size distribution and of the internal cohesion of the granules, on the mechanical strength of the compact and on the microstructure and open porosity of the sintered pellets, are analyzed.By its ability to identify the range of fragmentation of the granules during compaction, acoustic emission appears as a promising technique for monitoring the compaction of brittle particles in the manufacture of a controlled porosity fuel.

Hydro-mechanical analysis of breach processes due to levee failureLiu, Zhenzhen 03 July 2015 (has links)
La rupture des barrages et des digues en terre est susceptible d’avoir des conséquences importantes en aval et dans les zones protégées. Nous avons mené une analyse hydro-mécanique de la formation et du développement de brèche destinée à améliorer la précision des approches actuelles. Dans le cas de l’érosion interne, un modèle d’agrandissement de conduit a été proposé pour modéliser la rupture des digues et barrages en terre par écoulement concentré. Ce modèle tient compte de l’érosion du sol par un écoulement de conduit turbulent. En ce qui concerne l’élargissement de la brèche, un modèle simple d’estimation de la longueur critique d’afouillement par “headcut” est proposé, fonction de la résistance du sol à la traction. Ce modèle est en bon accord avec les résultats numériques obtenus par équilibre limite. Un modèle simplifé pour la contrainte latérale sur les parois de la brèche a ensuite été proposé. Ce modèle tient compte des écoulements secondaires. Il montre que la contrainte latérale peut être plus grande que la contrainte de fond, suivant la situation. Finalement, une expérimentation de grande dimension de rupture de barrage par erosion de conduit a été modélisée avec le modèle d’érosion de conduit proposé, et quelques composantes des modèles d’élargissement de brèche proposés. L’élargissement de la brèche par paliers a été reproduite au début du processus. Les perspectives de validation et d'application des modèles proposés sont discutées. / The failure of embankment dams and levees can have serious consequence in floodplains. Hydro-mechanical analyses of the breach processes were conducted to develop the accurate estimation of the failure of embankment dams and levees. Considering the internal erosion process, a pipe enlargement model was proposed to simulate the failure of embankment dams and levees by concentrated leak erosion. In this model, the turbulent pipe flow with erosion mechanism was employed as well as the soil erosion law. Considering the breach enlargement process, a simple headcut migration model based on the soil tensile strength was presented to simulate the critical length of the headcut. Good agreements were obtained by comparing with the limit equilibrium numerical model. A simple model was eventually proposed to simulate the lateral shear stress on the breach sides, accounting for the secondary flow. The lateral shear stress can be greater than the bottom shear stress, depending on the situation. . Finally, a large-scale test of dam failure was simulated by using the pipe enlargement and some components of the breach widening models proposed. The simulation of the pipe enlargement process had good agreement with the measured data. Both of the pipe diameter and the discharge flow were well simulated. The stepwise enlargement of the breach width was also well simulated at the beginning of the breach widening process. Validation and application prospects of the proposed models are discussed.

Estudo anatômico, radiográfico e biomecânico dos estabilizadores mediais da patela: ligamento patelofemoral medial, ligamento patelotibial medial e ligamento patelomeniscal medial / Anatomic, radiographic and biomechanical study of the medial patellar stabilizers: medial patellofemoral ligament, medial patellotibial ligament and medial patellomeniscal ligamentBetina Bremer Hinckel 26 July 2016 (has links)
INTRODUÇÃO: Os ligamentos mediais responsáveis pela manutenção da estabilidade da articulação patelofemoral (PF) são o ligamento patelofemoral medial (LPFM), o ligamento patelotibial medial (LPTM) e o ligamento patelomeniscal medial (LPMM). Sobre o LPFM, existem vários estudos anatômicos, radiológicos, biomecânicos, e a evolução clínica de sua lesão e reconstrução; no entanto, pouco se sabe sobre o LPTM e o LPMM. MÉTODOS: O LPFM, o LPTM e o LPMM foram dissecados em 9 joelhos. Todos os ligamentos foram enviados para avaliação histológica, corados pelo método de hematoxilina e eosina (HE), após o teste biomecânico. Foram medidos o comprimento e a largura bem como a relação das inserções com referências anatômicas (epicôndilo medial do fêmur, tubérculo dos adutores no fêmur, linha articular, tendão patelar e menisco medial). Esferas metálicas foram introduzidas nas inserções e radiografias em ântero-posterior (AP) e perfil (P) realizadas. Foram medidas as distâncias entre as inserções e as linhas de base (na tíbia, linha do planalto, borda medial do planalto e borda medial da espinha medial; e na patela, linha da cortical posterior e bordas proximal e distal da patela). Os ensaios de tração dos ligamentos foram executados em uma máquina de ensaios mecânicos KRATOS. RESULTADOS: Todos os materiais apresentaram tecido conjuntivo denso característico de tecido ligamentar. Com o estudo anatômico verificamos que o LPFM se encontrou na camada 2, com comprimento de 60.6 mm e largura de 15,3 mm no fêmur e 20,7 mm na patela. Inseriu-se entre o tubérculo dos adutores e o epicôndilo medial no fêmur e no pólo proximal da patela. O LPTM tinha um comprimento de 36,4 mm e largura de 7,1 mm. Sua inserção tibial se encontrou 13,7 mm distal a articulação e 11,6 mm medial ao tendão patelar formando um ângulo de 18,5o com este. A inserção na patela foi 3,6 mm proximal a sua borda distal. O LPMM se encontrou na camada 3 e seu comprimento foi de 33,7 mm e largura de 8,3 mm. Com uma inserção meniscal no corno anterior, 26,6 mm medial ao tendão patelar e formando ângulo com tendão patelar de 42,8o. Sobre os parâmetros radiográficos, a inserção tibial do LPTM se encontrou 9,4 mm, na incidência AP, e 13,5 mm, na incidência P, distal a articulação. Quanto ao posicionamento médio lateral a inserção se encontrou a 30% do comprimento do planalto de medial para lateral e na borda medial da espinha medial. A inserção patelar era 4,8 mm proximal a sua borda distal. Na análise biomecânica verificamos que o LPTM era mais rígido que o LPFM (médias de 17,0 N/mm versus 8,0 N/mm, respectivamente) e apresentou menor deformação no limite de resistência máxima (8,6 mm Resumo Betina Bremer Hinckel versus 19,3 mm). CONCLUSÃO: Os ligamentos foram identificados em todos os joelhos. Os parâmetros anatômicos e radiográficos das inserções foram bem definidos. Os enxertos comumente utilizados para as reconstruções ligamentares do joelho são suficientes para a reconstrução do LPFM e do LPTM / INTRODUCTION: The medial ligaments responsible for maintaining the stability of the patellofemoral (PF) joint are the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL), the medial patellotibial ligament (MPTL) and the medial patellomeniscal ligament (MPML). There are several studies on the anatomical, imaging, and biomechanical characteristics of the MPFL, and clinical outcome of its injury and reconstruction; however, little is known about the MPTL and MPML. METHODS: The MPFL, MPTL and MPML were dissected in 9 knees. All ligaments underwent histological evaluation by hematoxylin eosin stain after the biomechanical test. The length and width and the insertions relationship with anatomical references (medial epicondyle of the femur, adductor tubercle of the femur, joint line, patellar tendon and medial meniscus) were measured. Steel balls were introduced at the insertions and radiographs in anteroposterior (AP) and profile (P) views were performed. The distance between the insertions to baselines were measured (in the tibia, the plateau line, the medial plateau border and the medial border of the medial tibial spine; and in the patella the posterior cortical line and the proximal and distal patellar borders). The tensile tests of the ligaments were performed on a mechanical testing machine KRATOS. RESULTS: All materials showed dense connective tissue characteristic of ligaments. With the anatomical study we found that the MPFL was in layer 2, it has length of 60.6 mm and width of 15,3 mm in the femur and 20,7 mm in the patella. Inserting between the adductor tubercle and the medial epicondyle on the femur and in the inferior pole of the patella. The MPTL was found in layer 2, its length was 36.4 mm and width of 7.1 mm. Its tibial insertion was found 13.7 mm distal to the joint line and 11.6 mm medial to the patellar tendon at an angle of 18,5o with it. On the patella it was 3.6 mm proximal to its distal border. The MPML was in layer 3 and its length was 33.7 mm and width of 8.3 mm. The meniscal insertion was in the anterior horn, 26.6 mm medial to the patellar tendon and a 42,8o angle with it. In regards to the radiographic parameters the tibial insertion of LPTM was 9.4 mm, in the AP, and 13.5 mm, in the P, distal to the joint line. The medial lateral position was at 30% from medial to lateral on the tibial plateau and on the medial edge of the medial spine. The patellar insertion was 4.8 mm proximal to the distal border of the patella. In the biomechanical analysis we verified that the MPTL was more rigid then the MPFL (average of 17.0 N / mm versus 8.0 N / mm, respectively) and showed less deformation in the maximum tensile strength (8,6 mm versus 19,3 mm). CONCLUSION: The ligaments were identified in all knees. The anatomical and radiographic insertion parameters were well
