Schneider, Arnaud. "Comportement et mobilité des éléments traces métalliques dans des sols environnant une usine de seconde fusion du plomb. Approches expérimentales et modélisation." Thesis, Reims, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016REIMS043/document.
Full textThe soil contamination by trace elements (TE) is a major environmental issue which mainly lies in their potential transfers from soils to surface and ground waters and/or to food chain.The main objective of this study was to understand the behaviour of TE in impacted soils located in the vicinity of a lead-acid battery recycling plant (Ardennes, France). In a 17 ha surrounding area, the spatial distribution of TE was performed using portable X-ray fluorescence. It indicated that the soils were mainly contaminated by Pb and, to a lesser degree, by Cd, Cu, Ni, Sb, Sn and Zn. A geostatistical approach enabled to discriminate the natural or anthropogenic sources of most of these TE.Based on the TE mapping, the soil type and the land cover, the behaviour of the TE was studied along six soil profiles. The calculated partition coefficients highlighted a high mobility of the TE which is related to the acidic soil conditions (pH 4-5). Regardless of the studied soil profile, Cd exhibited the highest mobility, followed by Zn, Ni, Pb and Cu. A combined experimental (soil-column Donnan membrane technique) and modelling approach helped to specify that Cd, Ni and Zn occurred as free ions, Pb mainly occurred as free ion and associated to fulvic acids and Cu was mainly associated to fulvic acids in the soil solutions. The distribution of Pb among the soil components of upper soil horizons was also determined using chemical methods (sequential extraction), physical methods (SEM-EDS, Raman microspectroscopy) and modelling. Lead was mainly associated with soil organic matter and to a lesser extent with manganese oxides. None of the Pb-bearing phases potentially emitted by the recycling plant were identified, suggesting a remobilization of Pb in the studied soils after smelter particles deposition. This work emphasizes the importance of studying the soil and its solution to better understand the behaviour of TE, to assess the environmental risks and to suggest remediation strategies
Paganelli, Emanuele. "Melt percolation and stagnation in a cold suboceanic mantle (Andrew Bain transform fault, southwest indian ridge)." Thesis, Lille 1, 2011. http://www.theses.fr/2011LIL10026/document.
Full textAndrew Bain Fracture Zone represents one of the largest transform faults in the ridge system. Located on the South West Indian Ridge, it constitutes part of the plate margin between Africa and Antarctica. In this area, the lithosphere is thick and mainly constituted by ultramafic rocks; the system is characterized by a negative thermal anomaly. During the Italian-Russian expedition S23-AB06, the seafloor in the Southern Ridge Transform Intersection has been sampled and almost only ultramafic material has been recovered. The sampled spinel and plagioclase peridotites show hybrid textures and are characterized by deep spinel-field impregnation assemblages and by plagioclase-field equilibrated patches and mineral trails marked by crystallization of newly formed plagioclase-field equilibrated trails and formation of plagioclase coronas around pristine spinel. Major and trace element data composition have been collected. Both spinel- and plagioclase-peridotite pyroxenes and spinels follow a main melting trend accompanied by a progressive re-equilibration to lower P/T facies. Thin section-scale variability matches inter-site compositional variability. Progressive re-equilibration to lower P/T conditions can be accounted for by the presence of percolating melts and solid diffusion. Major and trace element shows that percolating melts are generated over a wide pressure range and modeling suggests melting started in garnet stability field but stopped early due to the lithospheric cooling. Thus, this mantle seems to be a thermically “normal” mantle cooled down from above by the anomalous thickness of the old lithosphere, similar to those characterizing continent-ocean transition
Syed, Mohammad Imran. "Wireless passive measurements : tool, redundancy, measurements, and analyses." Electronic Thesis or Diss., Sorbonne université, 2023. http://www.theses.fr/2023SORUS265.
Full textUnderstanding wireless traffic is fundamental for improving networks and designing advanced algorithms and protocols. In this context, passive measurements have the edge over active measurements, as there is no requirement for any modification in existing network devices. Passive measurements are often less expensive and easier to deploy than other methods. This approach involves monitoring the wireless medium and collecting data on various network parameters, such as signal strength, channel occupancy, and packet loss. It consists of deploying multiple sniffers throughout the target area (sniffers are devices operating in monitor mode that collect the wireless packets regardless of their nature). However, one of the main challenges with passive measurements is ensuring trace completeness, or the ability to collect a complete and accurate dataset. We know that a single sniffer cannot capture all the traffic due to the inherent characteristics of the wireless medium where the environment can be highly dynamic and unpredictable. Several factors can impact trace completeness in wireless passive measurements. These include environmental factors, such as interference from other wireless devices, changes in the physical environment (such as moving objects), and variations in wireless signal propagation due to changes in atmospheric conditions. Additionally, issues with the measurement equipment itself, such as calibration errors or data processing issues, can also impact trace completeness. The importance of trace completeness in wireless passive measurements cannot be overstated. Inaccurate or incomplete data can lead to incorrect conclusions about network performance, which can have significant implications for network planning, optimization, and troubleshooting. For example, incomplete data can result in missed opportunities to identify and address network issues, and incorrect or incomplete trajectory reconstruction. In this thesis, we study the quality of traces captured by a sniffer and investigate the resulting improvements by introducing redundancy in the number of sniffers. We explore the impact of the following two aspects on the quality of wireless traces: the number of sniffing devices and the type of hardware used. We study the variation in the Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) and its impact on distance estimation. The analysis is helped by the development of a readily-usable and easily-available tool, called PyPal, for the synchronization and merging of Wi-Fi traces collected simultaneously

Phd thesis, Université Blaise Pascal - Clermont-Ferrand II, 2006. http://tel.archives-ouvertes.fr/tel-00155657.
Full textLes inclusions magmatiques piégées dans un échantillon de la zone FAMOUS (ride médio-Atlantique Nord) se caractérisent par une variabilité importante de leurs teneurs en éléments majeurs et traces, qui excède largement la variabilité chimique des laves émises en surface dans la région. Les liquides inclus sont très primitifs (Mg# = 0.70-0.78) et présentent des similitudes de composition avec les liquides expérimentaux issus de la fusion partielle de lherzolites à spinelle à 1 GPa. Les compositions en éléments en traces évoluent depuis des compositions relativement appauvries ((La/Sm)N<0.75) jusqu'à des compositions légèrement enrichies ((La/Sm)N>1.2). Des modélisations géochimiques suggèrent qu'une grande part de la diversité chimique des inclusions résulte du processus de fusion polybare d'une source de composition homogène. Toutefois, une variation locale de la température potentielle et de la teneur en H2O du manteau semble requise pour reproduire certaines variations en éléments majeurs. Nous n'avons pas décelé de modifications chimiques des magmas liées à des interactions magma/roche (dissolution du clinopyroxène) lors de la ségrégation et l'ascension.
L'étude des inclusions magmatiques dans les olivines d'échantillons de l'île Maurice et l'île de la Réunion a mis en évidence une transition entre des liquides alcalins à transitionnels vers des basaltes à affinité tholéiitique. Cette évolution peut vraisemblablement être expliquée par une augmentation du degré de fusion d'une source péridotitique. D'autre part, la composition chimique et isotopique homogène au cours du temps du panache de la Réunion nous a autorisés à calculer la séquence d'incompatibilité des éléments traces lors du processus de fusion partielle à l'origine des liquides inclus. Les résultats indiquent un comportement très incompatible du Pb, alors que celui-ci est généralement considéré comme voisin du celui du Ce lors de la fusion dans un environnement océanique. Cette observation implique l'absence de sulfure résiduel dans la source du panache lors de l'extraction des magmas, ce qui singulariserait la source du panache de la Réunion des autres sources d'îles océaniques. Enfin, une modélisation de la source du panache suggère une composition relativement comparable à celle du manteau primitif, mais toutefois légèrement appauvrie en éléments les plus incompatibles. Ainsi, la source de la Réunion est constituée d'un manteau faiblement appauvri par l'extraction de la croûte continentale, qui, par la suite, n'a pas ou peu été modifié par les processus de différenciation ou de recyclage.

Full textThe main issue of this study is to constrain the fate of subducted sediments variably enriched in sulphur for P-T (pressure – temperature) relevant for the slab at sub-arc depth. Using piston-cylinder apparatus, we performed melting and crystallisation experiments (3 GPa; 650 – 1000°C; ƒO2 ~ NNO) on natural, trace elementundoped and volatile-rich sediments (pelite and marlstone). Experiments were conducted with variable water (5 to 10 wt% H2Oin) and sulphur (0, 1 and 2 wt% Sin) contents. Silicate melts produced by the fluid-present melting of pelite range from trondhjemitic to granitic compositions, are broadly peraluminous and coexist with garnet + kyanite ± phengite ± quartz + rutile. Those produced by the fluid-present melting of marlstone are sodic (granodioritic composition), metaluminous to slightly peraluminous and coexist with garnet ± epidote ± clinopyroxene ± kyanite ± quartz + rutile. Sulphur addition at ƒO2 ~ NNO leads to sulphide precipitation. Thus, iron (Fe2+) contents decrease (Mg# increase) in the system and this strongly impacts phase relationships: garnet, epidote and phengite are consumed in favour of pyroxens, biotite and amphibole. Trace-element distribution between silicate melt and starting bulk for S-doped systems is largely impacted (e.g. rare earth elements fractionation). On the basis of data obtained in mantle xenoliths(Grenada, Lesser Antilles) and from geochemical modelisations, we are suggesting that a contribution in the mantle wedge of 1 to 3 % of trondhjemitic/granitic melts derived from pelitic sediments (≤ 1 wt% Sin) mayaccount for the composition of basalts in the southern part of Lesser Antilles (Grenada and Grenadines)

Full textVisual object tracking is an elementary function of computer vision that has been the subject of numerous studies. Drift over time is one of the most critical phenomena to master because it leads to the permanent loss of the target being tracked. Despite the numerous approaches proposed in the literature to counter this phenomenon, none outperforms another in terms of robustness to the various sources of visual perturbations: variation of illumination, occlusion, sudden movement of camera, change of aspect. The objective of this thesis is to exploit the complementarity of a set of tracking algorithms by developing on-line fusion strategies capable of combining them generically. The proposed fusion chain consists of selecting the trackers from indicators of good functioning, combining their outputs and correcting them. On-line drift prediction was studied as a key element of the selection mechanism. Several methods are proposed for each step of the chain, giving rise to 46 possible fusion configurations. Evaluated on 3 databases, the study highlighted several key findings: effective selection greatly improves robustness; The correction improves the robustness but is sensitive to bad selection, making updating preferable to reinitialization; It is more advantageous to combine a small number of complementary trackers with homogeneous performances than a large number; The robustness of fusion of a small number of trackers is correlated to the incompleteness measure, which makes it possible to select the appropriate combination of trackers to a given application context

Full textA determinação de elementos traços em amostras de rocha por espectrometria de massas, combinada com ablação a laser (LA-ICPMS), tem se tornado uma importante ferramenta nas investigações em petrogênese, metalogênese e na prospecção de minérios. Apesar do surgimento de uma nova geração de lasers com menor duração de pulso (fs) e comprimento de onda (<266 nm), a calibração é ainda um ponto crítico, pois em geral, não há padrões disponíveis com matriz semelhante. Uma das interferências não espectrais mais relevantes em LA-ICPMS é o fracionamento químico, o qual acarreta diferenças entre as composições do alvo (padrão ou amostra) e da massa ablacionada, comprometendo a exatidão e a repetitividade dos resultados. Quando a análise integral é o objetivo principal, o assemelhamento de matriz pode ser alcançado por simples fusão das amostras e padrões em misturas de meta e tetraboratos, de modo similar ao que é feito, rotineiramente, na análise por fluorescência de raios-X (XRFA). Este trabalho relata metodologia para a determinação de elementos traços em amostras de basaltos, provenientes de sítios de exploração de petróleo. Os experimentos foram realizados com um sistema de ablação a laser CETAC LSX-100 em combinação com um espectrômetro ELAN 5000 ICPMS. Uma mistura de argônio-nitrogênio (2 % N2, 98 % Ar) foi utilizada como gás carreador, com o intuito de aumentar a massa ablacionada, e consequentemente, melhorar as intensidades de sinal e reduzir os limites de detecção. Conectou-se uma câmara ciclônica antes da tocha do ICP, com o objetivo de uniformizar o tamanho das partículas de aerossol, e deste modo, melhorar a repetitividade da medição e a robustez do plasma. A título de comparação, análises também foram feitas sem o emprego desta câmara. Padrões de calibração foram preparados a partir de dois materiais de referência certificados, o basalto NIST SRM 688 e a obsidiana NIST SRM 278. Os padrões de rochas pulverizadas foram misturados e homogeneizados com fundente de borato de lítio (CLAISSE, puro, 75 % Li2B4O7, 25 % LiBO2) nas proporções mássicas de rocha: fundente de 1:5, 1:11, 1:23, 1:47, respectivamente, obtendose, deste modo, cada padrão em quatro diferentes concentrações. O padrão interno escolhido foi o In, tendo sido este adicionado antes da fusão, resultando em alvos com a concentração de 100 mg kg(-1) neste elemento. Obtiveram-se os brancos, de modo similar, usando o fundente borato de lítio. A validação metodológica foi feita empregando-se o basalto (GSJ, JB-2) e o granito (NIMG, SARM-1), tendo sido a partir destes, preparados vidros com a proporção mássica (amostra: fundente) de 1:5 e contendo o padrão interno. Todas as fusões foram feitas em um forno de fusão automático (CLAISSE Fluxy). Análises por ICPMS e ICP OES foram feitas após dissolução de fragmentos dos alvos em HNO3, para verificação de possíveis perdas de elementos voláteis. Quarenta elementos foram determinados, a maioria das curvas de calibração apresentou coeficiente de determinação (R2) maiores que 0,995. Limites de detecção variaram de 0,013 mg kg(-1) para Tb, até 0,6 mg kg(-1) para Zn. Estes valores foram melhorados para vários elementos pelo uso da câmara ciclônica (V, Zn, Rb, Y, Nb, Ba, Ce, Sm, Tb, Dy, Ho, Tm). Nas análises do basalto (GSJ, JB-2) e do granito (NIMG, SARM-1), a exatidão foi melhor do que 5 % para V, Sr, Y, Ba, Ce, Nd, Yb e Lu; entre 5-10 % para: Sc, Zn, Rb, Tm, e de 10-20 % para: Co, Zr, La e Tb. A repetitividade foi melhor do que 5% para V, Rb, Sr, La, Nd, Ta; entre 5-10 % para: Sc, Co, Zn, Sr, Y, Zr, Ba, Tb, Yb; e de 10-20 % para: Ce, Tm, Lu e Hf. Foi utilizado ainda o método semiquantitativo TotalQuant II o qual, dentro da incerteza esperada para este tipo de calibração (cerca de 10 % a 20 %), forneceu resultados concordantes com calibração externa quantitat
Determination of trace elements in rock samples by laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICPMS) has become an important tool for investigations in petrogenesis, metallogenesis and ore prospecting. However, despite the availability of new generation lasers with shorter pulse duration (fs) and wave length (<266 nm), calibration remains still a critical issue when matrixmatched standards are not available. One of the most serious non- spectral interference in LA-ICPMS is chemical fractionation, which causes compositions of standard and sample and their respective ablated masses to be different, thus compromising accuracy and precision of the results. When bulk analysis is the main objective, matrix matching can be achieved by the simple fusion of samples and standards with meta/tetraborates fluxes, similar to what is routinely used in XRFA. This work reports on our experience with this procedure in the analysis of basaltic rocks, aiming at the trace element characterization of host rocks from oil exploration sites in Brazil. The experiments were performed with a CETAC LSX- 100 laser ablation system (Nd:YAG, 266 nm, operated in the Q-switched and scanning mode) coupled to an ELAN 5000 ICPMS. An argon- nitrogen mixture (2 % N2, 98 % Ar) was used as carrier gas to enhance the mass of material ablated, thus increasing signal intensities and reducing detection limits. A cyclonic spray chamber was arranged just before the ICP-torch as a tentative to uniform aerosol particle size for improving measurement repeatability and robustness of the plasma. For comparison, the system was also operated without a spray chamber. Calibration samples were prepared from two standard reference materials: NIST SRM 688 basalt and NIST SRM 278 obsidian. The powdered rock standards were mixed and homogenized with a lithium borate flux (CLAISSE, pure, 75 % Li2B4O7, 25 % LiBO2) using rock-to-flux mass ratios of 1:5, 1:11, 1:23 and 1:47, respectively, thus obtaining each standard in four different analyte concentrations. Indium was used as an internal standard (IS) and was added before fusion to achieve targets with IS concentration of 100 mg kg(-1). Blanks from the lithium borate flux were produced in a similar way. Method validation was performed with GSJ basalt JB-2 and NIMG granite SARM-1, prepared at a constant sampleto- flux mass ratio of 1L:5 and containing also the IS. All fusions were performed in an automated furnace (CLAISSE Fluxy). Solution nebulization ICP-MS/OES after dissolution of smaller target pieces in HNO3 was used to assess for volatilization losses. Forty elements were determined and good linearity of the calibration curves was obtained and for most of them the correlation coefficient (R2) was higher than 0.995. Detection limits ranged from 0.013 mg kg(-1) for Tb to 0.6 mg kg(-1) for Zn, and improved for several elements by using a cyclonic spray chamber (e.g. V, Zn, Rb, Y, Nb, Ba, Ce, Sm, Tb, Dy, Ho, Tm). In the analysis of GSJ basalt JB-2 and NIMG granite SARM-1, accuracy was better than 5 % for: V, Sr, Y, Ba, Ce, Nd, Yb, and Lu; between 5-10 % for: Sc, Zn, Rb, Tm, and 10-20 % for: Co, Zr, La and Tb. Repeatability was better than 5 % for: V, Rb, Sr, La, Nd, Ta, between 5-10% for: Sc, Co, Zn, Y, Zr, Ba, Tb, Yb, and 10-20 % for: Ce, Tm, Lu and Hf. Additionally, the semiquantitative TotalQuant II calibration was applied, which gave, within the expected uncertainty for this calibration method (10 % to 20 %), concordant results when compared to the quantitative external calibration procedure. Preliminary results on the application of these methods for the determination of trace elements in basaltic host rocks from oil exploration sites will be shown.

Full textA low dilution fusion technique using a 2:1 flux:sample ratio has been developed for the accurate determination of major, minor and trace elements by x-ray fluorescence spectrometry (XRFS). This method has been used to analyze geological samples of widely varying and unusual composition such as lamproites and kimberlites. The results are shown to be of comparable if not better accuracy than other methods of sample preparation for XRFS. Analytical conditions, including corrections for spectral line interferences are reported for all the elements determined. For major element analysis three methods of calculating appropriate alpha coefficients were investigated, namely (1) multiple regression analysis, (2) Norrish and Hutton method and (3) a computer program, NBSGSC, involving fundamental parameters and the COLA equation. Methods (1) and (2) gave poor results for rock types of widely varying composition. The third method requires that the variation of alpha coefficients with varying weight fraction of the analyte element be taken into account when calculating alpha coefficients if accurate values for major and minor elements are to be obtained on low dilution fusion discs. For trace element analysis the average relative error was less than 5% and there was a decrease in sensitivity by about a factor of 2 compared with XRFS determinations on powder pellets. The elimination of particle size effects in the homogeneous glass fusion discs is a major advantage over the use of powder pellets, especially for the determination of elements such as Ba, Cr and the REEs. A loss on fusion technique has been employed to ensure complete loss of volatiles from the rock samples. Data presented highlight the problems encountered in the determination of the volatile content in geological samples. The oxidation and retention of sulphur in the discs was also investigated.

Full textUn modèle numérique bidimensionnel en éléments finis a été développé afin de déterminer l'influence des paramètres géométriques de la subduction sur cette fusion partielle. Ce modèle intègre de manière couplée la résolution des équations de la mécanique des fluides, le calcul de la fusion partielle et les transferts d'eau entre les différentes phases minéralogiques du manteau et de la croûte. Du point de vue technique, les équations de conservation de l'énergie sont résolues par une méthode de type Galerkin tandis que les équations de conservation de la masse et du moment utilisent une procédure de pénalisation. La prise en compte des transferts de fluides se fait par le biais d'une méthode de traceurs. Chacun d'entre eux porte une information de composition minéralogique et de teneur en eau. En fonction des conditions de pression et de température, nous pouvons déterminer, à partir d'un diagramme de phase, les teneurs maximales en eau que peut accepter un traceur et donc évaluer la migration du fluide.
Les résultats obtenus sont en accord avec les données géochimiques enregistrées en surface dans les laves des arcs
volcaniques. Ainsi, une augmentation de l'épaisseur de la croûte chevauchante est associée à une diminution de la production magmatique totale, tandis qu'une augmentation du taux de convergence des plaques est corrélée avec une augmentation du taux de fusion partielle.

Full textWe 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

Full textTravel time information is easy to be perceived by users and has the potential to reduce congestion on both temporal and spatial scales thanks to traveller assistance systems. This thesis addresses the problem of estimating the travel time in city, where traffic is characterized by variable flow and also significant perturbation from/to mid-link source/sink that are not equipped with traffic sensors. This flow disturbs the equation of conservation of vehicles. The bibliography contains deterministic and stochastic approaches, using, in specific experimental situations, either inductive loops or probe vehicles, or both. We propose a stochastic approach based on unscented Kalman filtering. Its dynamic model is based on the classical analytical procedure that considers the time difference between the total of incoming and outgoing vehicles for each segment of the network. The formulation of this model is not explicit, which justifies the use of an unscented filter. The observations are both loop counters at the exit sections and probe vehicles map-matched to the network. The algorithm is applicable in real time, without prior information on the percentage of turning movements at intersections, and under any condition of perturbation. The variance estimation output by the filter measures the confidence in the estimated travel time and allows the rejection of outliers. The validation was shown based on simulations on a simple network with three intersections, variable entering flows, variable percentage of perturbation, and a variable percentage of probe vehicles

Full textsome other sensors aid the navigation calculations. The aiding or fusion of sensors is accomplished via Kalman filter. In this thesis, a navigation algorithm and a sensor fusion algorithm were written. The sensor fusion algorithm is based on estimation of IMU errors by use of a Kalman filter. The design of Kalman filter is possible after deriving the mathematical model of error propagation of mechanization equations. For the sensor fusion, an IMU, two incremental encoders and a digital compass were utilized. The digital compass outputs the orientation data directly (without integration). In order to find the position, encoder data is calculated in dead reckoning sense. The sensor triplet aids the IMU which calculates position data by integrations. In order to mount these four sensors, an unmanned tracked vehicle prototype was manufactured. For data acquisition, an xPC&ndash
Target system was set. After planning the test procedure, the tests were performed. In the tests, different paths for different sensor fusion algorithms were experimented. The results were recorded in a computer and a number of figures were plotted in order to analyze the results. The results illustrate the benefit of sensor fusion and how much feedback sensor fusion is better than feed forward sensor fusion.
