Full textIn this thesis, we are interested in the modeling and simulation of the propagation of ultrasonic waves in the cortical bone. Precisely, we have studied and analyzed the Quantitative Ultrasound (QUS) technique for the evaluation of the quality of bone tissue. It is an emerging technique those the application to bone tissue arouses particular interest in the scientific community. Since bone tissue is a living tissue, it is subject to aging and various pathologies, such osteoporosis, osteomalacia, osteoporomalacia, or the so-called Paget disease. To assist in therapeutic follow-up of the bone, monitoring of quality of bone tissue is essential. In this context, methods based on QUS technique are deemed to be interesting, due of their non-invasive, inexpensive, portable and non-ionizing characteristics. However, use the ultrasound in the context of characterization of bone tissue, requires a deep understanding of the different physical phenomena involved in their propagation. In this perspective, our work is developed in the modeling theme dedicated to the propagation of ultrasonic waves in multidimensional, heterogeneous, anisotropic waveguides, constituted of materials whose heterogeneity can be qualified as random. One of the originalities of this thesis concerns the study of the reflection and transmission coefficients and the dispersion curves in the presence of uncertainties in the material properties. In a first part, we study the reflection/transmission phenomena via a two-dimensional tri-layer model taking into account the soft tissues and the random heterogeneity of the bone tissue. We analyzed the impact of these characteristics on the reflection and transmission coefficients. A gradient of material properties is introduced, and its effect on the coefficients of interest is examined. The modal aspect of the waves is explored, by studying the dispersion of Lamb waves. The results obtained in a two-dimensional geometrical configuration made it possible to discuss the influence of the various parameters, in terms of mechanical and/or geometric properties, on the propagation of the ultrasonic waves in the cortical tissue. In a second part, the proposed model is extended for a cylindrical geometric configuration. The discussion is carried out in order to analyze the influence of the three-dimensional geometry of the bone on the phenomena of propagation

Full textThis thesis proposes a general formalism to model the acoustic wave propagation in a multilayer consisting of any combination of fluid, isotropic elastic solid, and isotropic poroelastic layers, the method having the flexibility to be extended to include other layer-natures. At a first stage, a stable algorithm is developed, based on the recursive stiffness matrix approach, to model the propagation of a plane wave incident on the multilayer as a function of its incidence angle and frequency. This algorithm merges recursively the structureindividual layers stiffness matrices into one total stiffness matrix and allows then the calculation of the reflection and transmission coefficients, as well as the displacement and stress components inside the multilayer for every incident plane wave direction. Secondly, to model the propagation of a bounded incident wave beam, the angular spectrum technique is used which is based on the decomposition of this beam into a spectrum of plane waves traveling in different directions. The corresponding reflected wave beam in the incidence medium, and the transmitted wave beam in the transmission medium, as well as the fields distributions (displacement and stress components) inside the multilayer are obtained by summing the contribution of all the plane waves traveling in different directions. As a numerical application, a three-layered solid-porous-solid structure immersed in water is simulated. The resulting reflection and transmission as well as the displacement and stress components in the multilayer corresponding to both, the incident plane wave in different directions and the incident bounded beam reveal the stability of the method and the continuity of the displacements and stresses at the interfaces

Full textIn this master's dissertation an analytical study of the ultrasonic means of technological control of tissue surface density. The analysis showed that to ensure the release of quality fabrics it is necessary to carry out operational technological control of their surface density. Currently, mainly destructive contact methods of tissue surface density control are used, which are based on cutting and weighing tissue samples, while non-contact ones are not used, although they have a number of significant advantages over contact ones. As shown by the analysis conducted in the first section of the dissertation, for the operational technological control of tissue surface density, it is advisable to use ultrasonic control methods. The second section of the dissertation discusses the peculiarities of the propagation of ultrasonic waves in tissues, which are related to the pore size and other structural parameters of tissues that affect the passage of ultrasonic waves through the tissue and reflection from it. A study of the passage of ultrasonic waves through controlled tissues with different pore sizes and reflections from them and obtained analytical dependences for the calculation and analysis of the interaction of ultrasonic waves with tissue threads with different acoustic resistances. Analytical dependences are obtained, which relate the amplitude ratios of ultrasonic waves both with the change of the diameters of the warp and weft threads, and directly with the surface density of the fabric. It has been shown that the attenuation of ultrasonic vibrations can be neglected for most tissues, and the choice of the ratio of the bulk density of the tissue and the length of the ultrasonic wave in the fabric can reduce the effect of attenuation on the amplitude ratio of ultrasonic waves. It is shown that as the duration of the ultrasonic pulse signal increases, the amplitude and phase errors decrease in comparison with the continuous signal. Therefore, it is necessary to choose the duration of the ultrasonic pulse signal so that there are no reflections of ultrasonic waves from the surface of the fabric and the surfaces of the piezoelectric transducers. In the third development of ultrasonic means of technological control of surface density of fabrics and its experimental researches is carried out.

In this work, the transmission line method is explored on the study of the propagation phenomenon in nonhomogeneous walls with finite thickness. It is evaluated the efficiency and applicability of the method, considering materials like gypsum, wood and brick, found in the composition of the structures of walls in question. The results obtained in this work are compared to those available in the literature, for several particular cases. A good agreement is observed, showing that the performed analysis is accurate and efficient in modeling, for instance, the wave propagation through building walls and integrated circuit layers in mobile communication and radar system applications. Later, simulations of resistive sheets devices such as Salisbury screens and Jaumann absorbers and of transmission lines made of metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) are made. Thereafter, it is described a study on frequency surface selective structures (FSS). It is proposed the development of devices and microwave integrated circuits (MIC) of such structures, for the accomplishment of experiments. Finally, future works are suggested, for instance, on the development of reflectarrays, frequency selective surfaces with dissimilar elements, and coupled frequency selective surfaces with elements located on different layers

Full textThe electromagnetic absorber materials are important elements for evaluating various electronic and civil systems. These materials are used, for example, for minimizing electromagnetic interferences (EMI) in different wireless components, for minimizing the radar cross section (RCS) or for usage in anechoic chambers. The latter application is the targeted work in this thesis. The objective of this work is to optimize the absorber materials used in anechoic chambers. The geometry and the material composition are the two parameters that influence the absorption of the electromagnetic wave inside the material itself. This are the two topics of optimization explored in this thesis. Our objective is to obtain material absorbers that have low reflection and transmission coefficients and high absorption in a large frequency band

The aim of seismic tomography is to determine a model of Earth properties that best explain observed seismic data. In practice, the limitations placed on our observations and computational capabilities force us to make a number of decisions about the scales and parameterizations of models, the nature of the data considered, and the approximations to wave propagation that connect the two. This thesis will consider three divergent approaches to seismic tomography spanning different representations of Earth structure at different scales, using different parts of the teleseismic wavefield, and solving the inverse problem with different approximations to the wave equation and different optimization methods. In choosing each of these approaches, we address two major decisions that influence the tomographic process: First, what relative value do we place on an less approximate treatment of wave physics versus the ability to incorporate as much information as possible in our inversion? Second, how can we use novel data to better constrain smooth seismic structure in regions that were previously unresolved? The first project presents a global ray-theoretical P-wave model that encompasses millions of traveltime picks. In this inversion, the addition of data from the dense USArray Transportable Array to global catalog data allows us to image the structure of the Eastern United States with unprecedented resolution and make a robust evaluation of the spatial scales of the heterogeneity. The second project develops a finite frequency approach to turning wave transmission tomography using a computationally efficient one-way wave propagation on curvilinear coordinates. The use of overturning coordinate systems allows for the application of wave equation tomography to phases previously unused in other oneway schemes. The final project presents a novel approach to wave-equation teleseismic reflection tomography using free surface multiples. The use of these multiply reflected phases helps to localize heterogeneity in the model to within layers of Earth structure. This project spans the final two chapters and includes the theoretical developments and an inaugural application to SsPmp data from the Hi-CLIMB array in Tibet.

This thesis is concerned with the reflection and transmission properties of layered left-handed materials (LHM). In particular, the reflection properties of (LHM) slabs are studied for the Goos-Hanchen (GH) lateral shift phenomenon. We demonstrate a unique GH lateral shift phenomenon, which shows that both positive and negative shifts can be achieved using the same LHM slab configuration. This phenomenon is different from previously established cases where the GH lateral shift can be only negative or only positive when different LHM slab configurations are used. We also show that there exist two distinct cases with this unique phenomenon. One case has two regions of incident angles where the GH lateral shift directions are different, while another case has three regions with alternated GH shift directions. A generalized analytical formulation for analyzing the GH lateral shift direction is provided, which reveals that this unique phenomenon is related to the relative amplitudes of the growing and decaying evanescent waves inside the LHM slabs. The energy flux patterns within LHM slabs are further studied to show the influence of the evanescent waves on the GH shift direction change.
(cont.) Furthermore, the transmission property of LHM slabs are studied on the finite slabs' maging capability. First, the development of the numerical simulation tool - the Finite-Difference Time-Domain method (FDTD) - investigates the ability of the method to model a perfect lens made of a slab of homogeneous LHM. It is shown that because of the frequency dispersive nature of the medium and the time discretization, an inherent mismatch in the constitutive parameters exists between the slab and its surrounding medium. This mismatch in the real part of the permittivity and permeability is found to have the same order of magnitude as the losses typically used in numerical simulations. Hence, when the LHM slab is lossless, this mismatch is shown to be the main factor contributing to the image resolution loss of the slab. In addition, finite-size LHM slabs are studied both analytically and numerically since they have practical importance in the actual experiments. The analytical method is based on Huygens' principles using truncated current sheets that cover only the apertures of the slabs. It is shown that the main effects on the images' spectra due to the size of the slabs can be predicted by the proposed analytical method, which can, therefore, be used as a fast alternative to numerical simulations.
(cont.) Furthermore, the property of negative energy streams at the image plane is also investigated. This unique property is found to be due to the interactions between propagating and evanescent waves and can only occur with LHM slabs, of both finite-size and infinite size. The last part of the thesis deals with multi-layered media for the application to antenna isolations. The setup is with two horn antennas located beneath the ground plane with 10 A distance apart. In order to reduce the coupling between antennas, multi-layered media placed on top of the ground plane need to be designed to suppress the fields. After the problem is simplified to the dipole antenna coupling in infinite slabs, the method to evaluate the fields inside layered media is presented. This method obtains the spectral domain Green's function first and then transforms the fields to the spatial domain using the Sommerfeld-type integration. After the method is validated using right-handed materials (RHM) from references, it is extended to include media like LHM as well as p. negative material and : negative material . The validation with these materials are done by comparing the results with CST microwave studio simulations. The first configuration for the antenna isolation design if one layer slab backed by the grounded plane. Two different approaches are used to find the optimum slab parameters for the isolation.
(cont.) One approach is to use Genetic Algorithm (GA) to optimize the slab's constitutive parameters and the thickness for a minimum coupling level. The other approach is to develop an analytic asymptotic expression for the field, and then used the expression to design the slab parameters for the best isolation. We conclude that both approaches yield the same design for the given configuration. The effectiveness of the design is also validated on a grounded finite slab, which is the representation of the actual application. Finally, multi-layered media for the antenna isolation is studied. GA method is applied with an optimization scheme tailed for a five layered structure. We show that GA converges very fast to the solution and the result yields satisfactory isolation between the antennas.

Full text[ES] Los cristales fonónicos son materiales artificiales formados por una disposición periódica de inclusiones en un medio, pudiendo ambos ser de carácter sólido o fluido. Controlando la geometría y el contraste de impedancias entre los materiales constituyentes se pueden controlar las propiedades dispersivas de las ondas. Cuando una onda propagante se encuentra un medio con diferentes propiedades físicas puede ser transmitida y reflejada, en medios sin pérdidas, pero también absorbida, si la disipación es tenida en cuenta. La presente tesis está dedicada al estudio de diferentes efectos presentes en cristales sónicos y fonónicos relacionados con la transmisión, reflexión y absorción de ondas, así como el desarrollo de una técnica para la caracterización de sus propiedades dispersivas, descritas por la estructura de bandas. En primer lugar, se estudia el control de la propagación de ondas en transmisión en sistemas conservativos. Específicamente, nuestro interés se centra en mostrar cómo los cristales sónicos son capaces de modificar la dispersión espacial de las ondas propagantes, dando lugar al control del ensanchamiento de haces de sonido. Haciendo uso de las curvas de dispersión espacial extraídas del análisis de la estructura de bandas, se predice primero la difracción nula y negativa de ondas a frecuencias cercanas al borde de la banda, resultando en la colimación y focalización de haces acústicos en el interior y detrás de un cristal sónico 3D, y posteriormente se demuestra mediante medidas experimentales. La eficiencia de focalización de un cristal sónico 3D está limitada debido a las múltiples reflexiones existentes en el interior del cristal. Para superar esta limitación se consideran estructuras axisimétricas trabajando en el régimen de longitud de onda larga, como lentes de gradiente de índice. En este régimen, las reflexiones internas se reducen fuertemente y, en configuración axisimétrica, la adaptación de simetría con fuentes acústicas radiando haces de sonido incrementa la eficiencia drásticamente. Además, la teoría de homogenización puede ser empleada para modelar la estructura como un medio efectivo con propiedades físicas efectivas, permitiendo el estudio del frente de ondas en términos refractivos. Se mostrará el modelado, diseño y caracterización de un dispositivo de focalización eficiente basado en los conceptos anteriores. Considérese ahora una estructura periódica en la que uno de los parámetros de la red, sea el paso de red o el factor de llenado, cambia gradualmente a lo largo de la dirección de propagación. Los cristales chirp representan este concepto y son empleados aquí para demostrar un mecanismo novedoso de incremento de la intensidad de la onda sonora basado en un fenómeno conocido como reflexión "suave". Este incremento está relacionado con una ralentización progresiva de la onda conforme se propaga a través del material, asociado con la velocidad de grupo de la relación de dispersión local en los planos del cristal. Un modelo basado en la teoría de modos acoplados es propuesto para predecir e interpretar este efecto. Se observan dos fenómenos diferentes al considerar pérdidas en estructuras periódicas. Por un lado, si se considera la propagación de ondas sonoras en un array periódico de capas absorbentes, cuyo frente de ondas es paralelo a los planos del cristal, se produce una reducción anómala en la absorción combinada con un incremento simultáneo de la reflexión y transmisión a las frecuencias de Bragg, de forma contraria a la habitual reducción de la transmisión, característica de sistemas periódicos conservativos a estas frecuencias. En el caso de la misma estructura laminada en la que se cubre uno de sus lados mediante un reflector rígido, la incidencia de ondas sonoras desde un medio homogéneo, cuyo frente de ondas es perpendicular a los planos del cristal, produce un gran incremento de la fuerza de
[CAT] Els cristalls fonònics són materials artificials formats per una disposició d'inclusions en un medi, ambdós poden ser sòlids o fluids. Controlant la geometría i el contrast d'impedàncies dels seus materials constituents, és poden controlar les propietats dispersives de les ondes, permetent una gran varietatde fenòmens fonamentals interessants en el context de la propagació d'ones. Quan una ona propagant troba un medi amb pèrdues amb propietats físiques diferents es pot transmetre i reflectir, però també absorbida si la dissipació es té en compte. Aquests fenòmens fonamentals s'han explicat clàssicament en el context de medis homogenis, però també ha sigut un tema de creixent interés en el context d'estructures periòdiques en els últims anys. Aquesta tesi doctoral tracta de l'estudi de diferents efectes en cristalls fonònics i sònics lligats a la transmissió, reflexió i absorció d'ones, així com del desenvolupament d'una tècnica de caracterització de les propietats dispersives, descrites mitjançant la estructura de bandes. En primer lloc, s'estudia el control de la propagació ondulatori en transmissió en sistemes conservatius. Més específicament, el nostre interés és mostrar com els cristalls sonors poden modificar la dispersió espacial d'ones propagants donant lloc al control de l'amplària per difracció dels feixos sonors. Mitjançant les corbes dispersió espacial obtingudes de l'anàlisi de l'estructura de bandes, es prediu, en primer lloc, la difracció d'ones zero i negativa a freqüències próximes al final de banda. El resultat és la collimació i focalització de feixos sonors dins i darrere de cristalls de so. Després es mostra amb mesures experimentals. L'eficiència de focalització d'un cristall de so 3D està limitada per la gran dispersió d'ones dins del cristall, que és característic del règim difractiu. Per a superar aquesta limitació, estructures axisimètriques que treballen en el règim de llargues longituds d'ona, i es comporten com a lents de gradient d'índex. En aquest règim, la dispersió es redueix enormement i, en una configuració axisimètrica, a causa de l'acoblament de la simetría amb les fonts acústiques que radien feixos sonors, l'eficiència de radiació s'incrementa significativament. D'altra banda, la teoria d'homogeneïtzació es pot utilitzar per a modelar, dissenyar i caracteritzar un dispositiu eficient de focalització basat en aquests conceptes. Considerem ara una estructura periòdica en la qual un dels seus paràmetres de xarxa, com ara la constant de xarxa o el factor d'ompliment canvia gradualment al llarg de la direcció de propagació. Els cristalls chirped representen aquest concepte i s'utilitzen ací per a demostrar un mecanisme nou d'intensificació d'ones sonores basat en el fenòmen conegut com a reflexió "suau". La intensificació està relacionada amb la alentiment progressiva de l'ona conforme propaga al llarg del material, que està associada amb la velocitat de grup de la relació de dispersió local en els diferents plànols del cristall. Es proposa un model basat en la teoria de modes acoblats per a predir i interpretar este efecte. Dos fenòmens diferents cal destacar quan es tracta d'estructures periòdiques amb dissipació. Per un costat, al considerar la propagació d'ones sonores en el plànol en un array periòdic de capes absorbents, s'observa una disminució anòmala de l'absorció i es combina amb un augment simultani de reflexió i transmissió en les freqüències de Bragg que contrasta amb la usual disminució de transmissió, característica dels sistemes conservatius a eixes freqüències. Per a un medi similar de capes, amb un reflector rígid darrere, les ones fora del pla incidint l'estructura des de un medi homogeni, augmentaran considerablement la interacció. En altres paraules, el retràs temporal de les ones sonores dins del sistema periòdic augmentarà significativament produint un augmen

Advanced fenestration systems are increasingly being used to distribute solar radiation purposefully in buildings. Distribution of visible light and near infrared radiation can be optimized to enhance daylighting and reduce thermal loads. Light redirecting window systems are one of many innovative fenestration systems available for improving the daylighting and thermal performance of buildings. Many emerging and existing light redirecting systems have both spectrally and angularly selective optical properties. To study these properties, a device that measures the spectral, bi-directional transmission and reflection distribution functions of complex fenestration systems is being developed at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. This device, a goniophotometer, will measure photometric and radiometric BT(R)DFs for radiation of 380 to 1700 nanometer wavelengths, encompassing much of the solar spectrum. The device incorporates spectroradiometrically calibrated digital cameras and absorption filters to gather quasi-spectral information about reflection and transmission by complex fenestration systems. It relies on a half-mirrored, aluminum coated acrylic hemi-ellipsoid to project reflected or transmitted light towards a digital camera.
(cont.) The device will be able to characterize BT(R)DFs for a variety of fenestration system materials, assemblies, and building materials. The goal of this research is to support the development of innovative, spectrally and angularly selective window systems that can improve daylighting and comfort and/or reduce cooling and heating loads in buildings. This thesis focuses on calibrating digital cameras to measure radiances with unknown spectra, developing the hemi-ellipsoid for the new goniophotometer, and developing methods for constructing quasi-spectral BT(R)DFs using this new device. The calibrated cameras also have potential for use in other applications, for example, as radiometers and photometers in rooms with light of known spectra.

The effective use of complex fenestration systems (CFS) in buildings requires a detailed knowledge of their optical spectral and directional properties. Bidirectional scattering functions (BSDFs), either in transmission (BTDFs) or reflection (BRDFs), are used to assess these properties and gather information vital to CFS design and analysis. To enable this analysis in a time and budget conscious manner, an innovative video goniospectrometer, called the Heliodome, has been developed. The Heliodome relies on filtered digital imaging, mathematical methods, and the use of a unique semi-transparent hemispheroidal light collection system to investigate the spectral and angular selectivity of CFS across the visible and near infrared portions of the solar spectrum. This thesis seeks to describe the most recent advancements in the development of the Heliodome-the completion and characterization of the spheroidal mirror component, the integration of a spectral estimation method, the photometric calibration of the camera, and the final automation and validation-- enabling the measurement of both spectral radiometric BSDFs and photometric BSDFs. The completion of this research should support the advancement of CFS that improve the use of daylighting in a space, reducing energy consumption and managing solar gains while improving visual comfort in buildings.

Resumo: Neste trabalho estudamos os coeficientes de reflexão RPP e RPS para ondas elásticas. Introduzimos uma nova aproximação tipo impedância para o coeficiente RPS, baseados no êxito deste tipo de aproximações para o RPP na região de ângulos críticos e pós-críticos. Apesar de não ter-se mostrado tão eficiente quanto a aproximação tipo impedância de reflexão para RPP na região de interesse, se comparamos nossa aproximação com algumas já existentes, o comportamento é um pouco melhor que as aproximações precedentes. Esta análise foi feita mediante uma nova metodología, baseada em curvas de desempenho de algoritmos. Também mostramos que aproximando o coeficiente de reflexão RPP por uma aproximação tipo impedância é possível obter um indicador da presença de hidrocarbonetos sem necessidade de inverter os dados. Por outro lado discutimos como, com algumas hipóteses adicionais, se podem estimar alguns parâmetros elásticos das rochas diretamente dos dados. Por último, analisamos o efeito de parte do processamento sísmico na obtenção de nossas estimações em dados sintéticos
Abstract: In this work we are concerned with the reflection coefficients RPP and RPS for elastic waves. Based on the success of an impedance type approximation for the coefficient RPP in the critical region, we introduce a new approximation for the coefficient RPS. Although the new approximation was not so good as for the previous in the RPP case, comparing our approach with the existing ones we found that its behaviour is a little better than the preceding approaches. This comparison was made using a new methodology based on performace profile curves. Moreover, we show that, using the impedance type approximation for the reflection coeficient RPP , it is possible to get an indicator that reacts to the presence of hydrocarbons without the necessity of the invert the data. We also demostrate that under suitable conditions some elastic parameters of the rocks can be estimated directly from the data. Finally, we analyse the effect of seismic processing in order to obtain our estimate in synthetic data

Full textFor each of these techniques, experimental set-ups were designed, implemented and calibrated. The procedures for identifying the ternary diffusion coefficients from the measured compositions fields were studied in details.
The Open Ended Capillary Technique was applied under gravity condition to study isothermal diffusion binary and ternary systems. Difficulties related to a new procedure for interpreting the data collected at short times of the experiments are highlighted and its implication in the generalization of the technique for the study of multicomponent systems is discussed.
The Transient Interferometric Technique was used to perform an experimental study of three binary systems under gravity conditions. It was also applied for the investigation of ternary systems under microgravity condition in the frame of the DSC on SODI experiment, which took place aboard the International Space Station in 2011. The experimental results are reported and the analysis of the accuracy of the technique is presented. The TIT is the first technique ever providing accurate experimental measurements of the complete set of diffusion and thermodiffusion coefficients for ternary liquid systems.
