Similitude généralisée et modélisation géométrique à complexité réduiteGeneral similitude solutions and low-complexity geometric models

We present low complexity models for the transport of passive scalars for environmental applications. The model uses partial observations assimilation. Similitude solutions are proposed in a non symmetric metric based on travel times. The approach does not require the solution of any PDE and is mesh free. Also, the solution can be computed in one point only without computing the whole solution. To cite this article: B. Mohammadi, J.-M. Brun, C. R. Mecanique 334 (2006).

Measuring stress intensity factors with a camera: Integrated digital image correlation (I-DIC)Mesure de facteurs d'intensité des contraintes avec une caméra : corrélation d'images numériques intégrée (CINI)

A novel ‘integrated’ approach coupling image correlation and elastic displacement field identification provides a powerful and accurate tool to evaluate mode I and II stress intensity factors. This technique is applied to silicon carbide subjected to a sandwiched three-point bend test, using digital pictures obtained in optical microscopy where the pixel physical scale is about 2 μm. A crack whose maximum opening is 500 nm can be detected and its geometry identified. The toughness is determined well within a 10%uncertainty. To cite this article: F. Hild, S. Roux, C. R.

Résolution des équations de dispersion–diffusion en présence de forts gradientsResolution of advection–diffusion equation in presence of sharp gradient

In order to resolve the convection terms in the simulation of coastal flows, we propose a numerical method based on the Total Variation Diminishing scheme completed with the Artificial Compression Method to reduce the artificial diffusion and to sharpen the tracer profile in strong gradient regions. This method was applied successfully at discontinuous regions, but out of these regions a limitation of its application is necessary. An application is made to estimate the width of the fresh water band in the Eastern English Channel. To cite this article: C. Sart et al., C. R. Mecanique 330 (2002) 159–165.     

Effets des forces de Coriolis sur le seuil convectif stationnaire d'une couche liquide confinée en cellule de Hele–Shaw annulaire en rotationEffects of the Coriolis forces on the stationary convectif threshold of a liquid layer confined in an annular Hele–Shaw Cell in rotation

The convective instability of a horizontal liquid layer confined in an annular Hele–Shaw cell subject to a constant rotation and submitted to a centrifugal gradient of temperature is investigated. Using a linear stability analysis, we study the effects of both Coriolis forces and curvature aspect on the stationary convective threshold when the Prandtl number is of the order of unity or larger than unity. We show that the Coriolis forces have a stabilizing effect, and the wave number is independent of these forces. However, a multicellular regime in the radial direction is observed for small Ekman numbers. The results related to the influence of the curvature are also shown.

Simulation numérique directe de l'influence de la forme aval d'une plaque séparatrice sur une couche de mélangeDirect-numerical simulation of the splitting-plate downstream-shape influence upon a mixing layer

In this Note, we present direct numerical simulation results of a spatial mixing layer generated behind an upstream plate separating two boundary layers. The effect of the shape of the trailing edge of the plate is considered through comparisons between flows obtained from a bevelled or a blunt plate. In the former case, a spatial mixing layer consistent with previous experimental and numerical observations is obtained. In the latter case, the self-excited state that establishes in the near wake region dominates primary and secondary instability mechanisms while understating the importance of inflow perturbations. This behaviour is interpreted in terms of convective or absolute instability. The effects on turbulent statistics are also discussed. To cite this article: S. Laizet, E. Lamballais, C. R.

Interaction soliton–sable dans un canal en eau peu profonde

Interaction between solitons and a sandy bed in shallow water is investigated. In our experiments, solitons are generated on the background of a harmonic wave, in a wave flume used in resonant mode. It is found that the sand ripples formed by the solitons propagation induce a significant decrease of solitons amplitude and of the phase shift between the soliton and the harmonic wave. However, the amplitude of the harmonic wave is approximately constant. The possible physical processes of such behaviour for the soliton amplitude and for the harmonic wave amplitude are discussed.

Apparent viscosity of a mixture of a Newtonian fluid and interacting particles

We investigate the behavior of fluid–particle mixtures subject to shear stress, by mean of direct simulation. This approach is meant to give some hints to explain the influence of interacting red cells on the global behavior of the blood. We concentrate on the apparent viscosity, which we define as a macroscopic quantity which characterizes the resistance of a mixture against externally imposed shear motion. Our main purpose is to explain the non-monotonous variations of this apparent viscosity when a mixture of fluid and interacting particles is submitted to shear stress during a certain time interval. Our analysis of these variations is based on preliminary theoretical remarks, and some computations for some well-chosen static configurations. To cite this article: A. Lefebvre, B. Maury, C. R.

Ondes adhérence–glissement–décollement sous contact unilatéral frottantStick–slip–separation waves in unilateral and frictional contact

A numerical study on the dynamic response of a mechanical system composed of two coaxial cylinders in relative rotation and unilateral contact with Coulomb friction is presented. This discussion complements the semi-analytical results on stick–slip waves given in Moirot, Nguyen, C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris Sér. IIb 328 (2000) 663–669, by some numerical simulations on the dynamic transition of the system from a given initial state to a surface wave. The case of stick–slip–separation waves is considered.
