Abstract:
La tomographie par courants de Foucault peut être utilisée pour évaluer la forme et le volume de défauts dans des plaques métalliques de générateur de vapeur de centrale nucléaire. L'objectif du travail présenté est de cartographier la distribution d'une grandeur représentative du défaut, ici la conductivité relative. Ce problème est difficile à résoudre car mal-posé et non-linéaire. Afin de le résoudre un modèle numérique est nécessaire. Nos travaux ont tout d'abord consisté à étudier les modèles directs existants pour choisir le plus adapté à notre cas. Il s'est avéré que les méthodes différentielles, différences finies ou éléments finis, étaient les plus adaptées à notre cas. Une fois que le modèle direct a été choisi, nous avons adapté les méthodes de type contrast source inversion (CSI) à ce modèle, puis proposé un nouveau critère à minimiser. Les méthodes de type CSI sont basées sur la minimisation de l'erreur quadratique pondérée des équations du modèle, observation et couplage. Par construction, elles autorisent une erreur sur ces équations. Il apparaît que les résultats de reconstruction s'améliorent lorsque l'erreur sur l'équation de couplage diminue. Afin de contraindre cette équation en évitant des problèmes de conditionnement, on a eu recours à une technique de Lagrangien augmenté. Enfin, le caractère mal-posé de ce problème peut être contourné en introduisant des informations a priori adéquates notamment sur la forme générale des défauts à reconstruire ainsi que sur les valeurs possibles de la conductivité relative
Eddy current tomography can be employed to caracterize flaws in metal plates in steam generators of nuclear power plants. Our goal is to evaluate a map of the relative conductivity that represents the flaw. This nonlinear ill-posed problem is difficult to solve and a forward model is needed. First, we studied existing forward models to chose the one that is the most adapted to our case. Finite difference and finite element methods matched very good to our application. We adapted contrast source inversion (CSI) type methods to the chosen model and a new criterion was proposed. These methods are based on the minimization of the weighted errors of the model equations, coupling and observation. They allow an error on the equations. It appeared that reconstruction quality grows with the decay of the error on the coupling equation. We resorted to augmented Lagrangian techniques to constrain coupling equation and to avoid conditioning problems. In order to overcome the ill-posed character of the problem, prior information was introduced about the shape of the flaw and the values of the relative conductivity

Abstract:
Abstract The Foucault pendulum is a well-known mechanism used to demonstrate the rotation of the Earth. It consists in a pendulum launched on linear orbits and, following Mach’s Principle, this line of oscillation will remain fixed with respect to absolute space but appear to slowly precess for a terrestrial observer due to the turning of the Earth. The theoretical proof of this phenomenon uses the fact that, to first approximation, the Foucault pendulum is a harmonic isotropic two degree of freedom (2-DOF) oscillator. Our interest in this mechanism follows from our research on flexure-based implementations of 2-DOF oscillators for their application as time bases for mechanical timekeeping. The concept of the Foucault pendulum therefore applies directly to 2-DOF flexure based harmonic oscillators. In the Foucault pendulum experiment, the rotation of the Earth is not the only source of precession. The unavoidable defects in the isotropy of the pendulum along with its well-known intrinsic isochronism defect induce additional precession which can easily mask the precession due to Earth rotation. These effects become more prominent as the frequency increases, that is, when the length of the pendulum decreases. For this reason, short Foucault pendulums are difficult to implement, museum Foucault pendulum are typically at least 7 meters long. These effects are also present in our flexure based oscillators and reducing these parasitic effects, requires decreasing their frequency. This paper discusses the design and dimensioning of a new flexure based 2-DOF oscillator which can reach low frequencies of the order of 0.1[Hz]. The motion of this oscillator is approximately planar, like the classical Foucault pendulum, and will have the same Foucault precession rate. The construction of a low frequency demonstrator is underway and will be followed by quantitative measurements which will examine both the Foucault effect as well as parasitic precession.
