Full textFor better constraining the structure of the Earth's interior, new theoretical developments on seismic wave propagation have emerged in recent years, and received increasing attention in tomography. One of these new methods is the multiple-frequency tomography, which aims at exploiting the frequency-dependency of body wave travel times related to diffraction effects. In this thesis, we have applied this method in order to obtain a ``high-resolution'' 3-D shear-wave tomographic model of the mantle, that could contribute to a better understanding of the Earth's dynamics

This thesis describes the development of Global Maxwell Tomography, a global inverse scattering algorithm. This algorithm is based on Volume Integral Equation formulations and operates on Magnetic Resonance data. The algorithm is framed as an optimization problem with box constraints, whereby guesses of material properties are successfully refined until convergence criteria have been met. The algorithm is assessed with a number of numerical examples, and future steps and improvements are proposed herein.

Full textThis work concerns the experimental and numerical study of coaxial jets with outer to inner velocity ratio lower than unity, presenting a rotation in the annular jet. At first, flow visualizations by tomography laser were used in the meridian and transverse plans in order to provide a spatial description of the flow. For various values of the nondimensional parameters : numbers of Reynolds, outer to inner velocity ratio and Swirl number, an inventory of the dominant modes was be established. Instantaneous velocity fields were then measured by Particle lmaging Velocimetry (PIV). The results of longitudinal and azimuthal time-averaged Velocity fields are presented. A comparison with the structures observed by tomography is proposed. A Fourier decomposition was made allowing to identify the dominant modes as well as their position in the radial direction. Experimental investigation was followed by a linear stability analysis. Special attention is paid to the steady base-flow solution reconstructed from the velocity profiles measured by PIV at the end of the nozzle. Given that the is not parallel, a global approach was used. Study of the stability is based on the numerical solution of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with pseudo-spectral methods. The objective of this analysis is to the map of azimuthal Fourier modes observed experimentally. We were thus interested in the most amplified growth rate of the disturbance for every azimuthal mode as well as in the absolute/convective nature of the modes. To conclude, a comparison of the results obtained in both numerical and experimental approaches is proposed

Full textSeismic waves are our primary tools to see the Earth’s interior and draw inferences on its structural, thermal and chemical properties. Seismic tomography, similar to medical tomography, is a powerful technique to obtain 3D computed tomography scan (CT scan) images of the Earth’s interior using seismic waves generated by seismic sources such as earthquakes, ambient noise or controlled explosions. It is crucial to improve the resolution of tomographic images to better understand the internal dynamics of our planet driven by the mantle convection, that directly control surface processes, such as plate tectonics. To this end, at the current resolution of seismic tomography, full physics of (an)elastic wave propagation must be taken into account.The adjoint method is an efficient full-waveform inversion (FWI) technique to take 3D seismic wave propagation into account in tomography to construct high-resolution seismic images. In this thesis, I develop and demonstrate new measurements for global-scale adjoint inversions such as the implementation of double-difference traveltime and waveform misfits. Furthermore, I investigate different parameterizations to better capture Earth’s physics in the inverse problem, such as addressing the azimuthal anisotropy and anelasticity in the Earth’s mantle.My results suggest that double-difference misfits applied to dense seismic networks speed up the convergence of FWI and help increase the resolution underneath station clusters. I further observe that double-difference measurements can also help reduce the bias in data coverage towards the cluster of stations.Earth’s lithosphere and upper mantle show significant evidence of anisotropy as a result of its composition and deformation. Starting from the recent global adjoint tomography model GLAD-M25, which is the successor of GLAD-M15 and transversely isotropic in the upper mantle, my goal is to construct an azimuthally anisotropic global model of the upper mantle. I performed 10 iterations using the multitaper traveltimes combined with double difference measurements made on paired stations of minor- and major-arc surface waves. The results after 10 iterations, in general, show the global anisotropic pattern consistent with plate motions and achieve higher resolution in areas with dense seismic coverage such as in North America and Europe.Attenuation is also another key parameter for determining the partial melt, water content and thermal variations in the mantle. In the last chapter, I investigate anelastic adjoint inversions to ultimately construct a global attenuation mantle model by the simultaneous inversion of elastic and anelastic parameters assimilating both the phase and amplitude information, which will lead to exact FWI at the global scale. I investigate the trade-off between elastic and anelastic parameters based on 2D synthetic tests to define a strategy for 3D global FWIs. I also explore the effect of different measurements for simultaneously and sequentially inverted elastic and anelastic parameters. The 2D test results suggest that the envelope misfit performs best at earlier iterations by reducing the nonlinearity of the FWI. After analyzing the effect of different radially-symmetric attenuation models on seismic waveforms by performing forward simulations in various 1D and 3D elastic/anelastic models, the results suggest the necessity of simultaneous elastic/anelastic inversions to also improve the elastic structure as attenuation cause not only amplitude anomalies but also significant physical dispersion, particularly on surface waves. I performed one global simultaneous iteration of elastic and anelastic parameters using GLAD-M25 and its 1D anelastic model QRF12 as the starting models with a dataset of 253 earthquakes. The preliminary results are promising depicting, for instance, the high and low attenuation in the West and East coasts of North America

Full textThe signals of the global positioning system (GPS) can not only be used to obtain the precise position all over the world but carry also information about the water vapour distribution in the atmosphere. This 3D distribution can be reconstructed from the GPS data by means of tomographic techniques. Of special interest is the quality of the reconstructed 3D distribution using data from GPS ground stations alone, without regarding low earth orbiters (LEOs) and weather satellites. Therefore, GPS data have been simulated for different model networks. A subsequent data validation shows the correlation between the number of GPS satellites, the density of ground stations and the spatial resolution of the water vapour field which might be obtained from a tomographic reconstruction. Some selected data sets have been used to reconstruct a given 3D distribution and to analyse variations between the initial model field and the results obtained with different tomographic techniques

Full textThe voice is the main instrument for communication of human beings and almost 70% of the economically active population in the developed countries depends, directly or indirectly, on it for their profession. Its production is due to the harmonious interaction of different physiological systems, in which the larynx plays an important role. The larynx is involved in the deglutition, breathing and phonation functions and it is where the glottal pulse is formed during airflow through the vocal folds. If the nerves and muscles in this region for some reason are injured, this functions are adversely affected, causing serious damages to the individuals quality of life. As a result, several researches have been carried out, aiming at acquiring information that help in the clinical and surgical decision making. Although many progresses had been reached in the field of vocal folds modeling and in larynx studies, patientspecific geometry modeling that may take an active part in the surgical planning are still a challenge. In this regard, this work presents the development of a threedimensional computational model, based on images from computed tomography (CT) scans. This model was used in fluid flow simulations, solved by finite element analysis, showing satisfactory possibilities for contributions to progresses in the modeling of patients with lesions and in interactive approaches, such as interferences in the models with haptic interface and virtual surgery of the larynx.

Full textOver the last two decades, a lot of global-scale or regional-scale seismic models of the Earth's interiors have been constructed from different types of seismological measurements (body-wave traveltime, surface-wave phase velocity or full waveforms) and with different theoretical assumptions of seismic wave propagation (ray theory, Born approximation or wave equation) and with different inversion techniques (iterative least-square inversion, Monte-Carlo or Neighborhood algorithm) and different parameterizations (spherical harmonics up to a variable degree or blocks or adaptive triangles). Generally these different tomographic methods generate different tomographic models. To calibrate these different tomographic methods and test these different tomographic models, we decided to perform a global-scale benchmark for seismic tomography and test different global-scale tomographic models. So this thesis is divided into two parts

Full textTransient global amnesia (TGA) is a clinical syndrome characterized by the abrupt onset of a massive episodic deficit occurring in middle age. This syndrome is still elusive concerning its neuropsychological, psychopathological and mostly cerebral functioning and long-term prognosis aspects. This thesis had a double aim 1) using TGA as a study model of memory for action and awareness of disease state to enhance their understanding and 2) unrevealing TGA physiopathology and its long term prognosis. Study 1 showed that enactment effect (better remembering for self-performed actions over read actions) was found during TGA, and to highlight the link between binding process (multimodality information integration) and this effect. Study 2 showed a prospective memory (memory for action to perform in the future) impairment, more important for the retrospective component (remember what to do) than the prospective (remember when to do something) one. In study 3, we found a particular awareness profile: patients did not have explicit knowledge of their disease state although they were anxious and worried. Using PET, study 4 showed hypometabolism in posterior cingulate cortex and orbitofrontal cortex during TGA. Finally, study 5 confirmed this syndrome medical and cognitive benignity, by assessing patients 10 years after the episode

Full textThe main purpose of the present thesis is to propose a Quantum State Tomography method developed to be applied in quadrupolar isolated nuclei systems. The Hilbert space of such systems can be used to process the quantum information of an equivalent system formed by many qubits. The proposed method is based on the application of non-selective radiofrequency pulses that produce global rotations of the system quantum state. Using an analytical description of those rotations, it was possible to generalize the proposed method to quadrupolar nuclei with any spin quantum number. The method can also be adapted to coupled nuclear systems, although in such cases it is necessary the use of evolution periods under the free interaction hamiltonian in order to determine some of the density matrix elements. As an application of the method, 23Na nuclei dissolved in a lyotropic liquid crystal were used to obtain the experimental results of the Deutsch and Grover algorithms, together with the measurement of the relaxation dynamics of some pseudo-pure states. Simulations of the proposed method applied to the quadrupolar spin 7/2 nucleus and to three homonuclear coupled spin 1/2 were also obtained.
