Full textFollowing a literature review focusing on the structure of bitumens and polymer modified bitumens, linear viscoelastic properties of paving grade binders were studied versus temperature and frequency. It is shown that neat asphalt cements can be looked upon as colloidal suspensions. As a consequence, the higher the dispersed phase content, the higher the modulus of the material. Moreover, modification of a bitumen by styrene-butadiene block copolymers induces a phase separation, the polymer rich phase being the dispersed phase for the investigated polymer contents (up to 6 % mass). The Palierne emulsion model describes the rheological properties of such multiphased materials

Full textUnderstanding the different physical and chemical phenomena involved during the formulation and shaping processes for a composite material made of a mineral matrix and cellulose fibers, leads to a better optimization of the elaboration and the final consolidation, and also to establish the correlations between the microstructures and the physical properties of the composites. The rheological behavior of studied mortar depends on the pH of medium, the nature and the specific surface area of clay minerals. When calcined clay mineral is present, it provides a pozzolanic effect to the mixture and participates in the stabilization of the composite material. Adding fibers to mineral matrix modifies the fragile character of the mineral matrix to a nonlinear endommageable behavior, which is characteristic of a composite material. A treatment of fibers with sodium hydroxide allows to individualize microfibrils: it increases the fibers roughness, indicating a reduced interface between the fibers and the matrix. However, these microfibrils are very sensitive to water. Addition of hemp fibers decreases the thermal conductivity of the composite. These cellulosic fibers present significant hygroscopic properties, resulting in a change of water absorption by capillarity. So, these composite materials are resistant to freeze / thaw cycles

Full textThe reported study aims to propose industrially viable solutions in order to accelerate the hardening of ground granulated blast furnace slag in precast concrete products thanks to both chemical and thermal activations. These solutions also have to be durable and environmentally friendly at the same time. More precisely, concrete with high content of slag should reach equivalent short term performance to CEM I 52.5 Portland cement based concrete, when placed in representative conditions of precast concrete industry. An objective of compressive strength was fixed at 23.4 MPa at 8 hours after thermal treatment at 65 °C. Thus, chemical activation of slag only or blended with Portland cement has been the main subject of the experimental works carried out on mortars in order to reach the objective previously defined. On condition that their durability is validated, the solutions that have been developed are by several aspects more advantageous than the CEM I 52.5 Portland cement based reference

Full textThis research describes the studies that concern resistance and durability of reinforced concrete structures. Before and after being repaired by injection of an epoxy leant in cracked sections. The first part of this research summarizes different methods of repairing the structures and takes into consideration the fatigue of materials when they are under cyclic loading. The analytical methods are examined (considering these phenomena) to predict the evaluation of a bent element. The second part concerns theoretical and experimental studies of three reinforced concrete beams. These beams have two damaged parts in their central section : a concrete retaking and a failure of armature. The results obtained on the first beam allow us to determine the repairing method as well as the parameters of the tests for the two other beams. According to the nature of damage and the rate of loading for the first loading, two computing methods are adapted to predict the behaviour of these elements. The experimental study on these repaired beams has allowed us to determine the function of repaired sections as well as to examine the resistance, behaviour and appearance of the repaired section under a variable rate of cyclic loading, until the fracture point. The experimental results are interpreted by analytical expressions and for the final rate of cyclic loading, corresponding to the usual purposes of the structures, a comparison with the theoretical predictions is presented

Full textThe distribution of energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions in buildings has been estimated at 30% during the construction phase, 70% during the use and maintenance phase, and 1% during the demolition process. During the construction phase, the materials used represent 56% of the CO2 emissions. The long term use of a building, difficult to control, depends on a large number of variables. Numerous levers are therefore studied to act during construction: low-carbon materials, waste reduction, promoting the circular economy, optimized design, intelligent material saving, construction and demolition waste, etc.Therefore, the objective of this PhD is to develop new low carbon materials. Physical, chemical, hygrothermal and mechanical characterization experiments are carried out at different scales. A prototype will be designed and a proof of concept will be created to verify the effectiveness of the eco-materials developed in this research.In this context, we started by studying the behaviour of cementitious mixtures including by-products. We substituted cement by several wastes, i. e. ferronickel slag (FNS) associated with crepidula shells (CR) and fly ash (FA) associated with crepidula shells. Mechanical and thermal properties of the mortar and concrete were studied at the material scale and also on a lab-scale prototype. The mechanical properties of the mortar with the use of FA-CR in substitution of cement were found to be superior to those of ordinary mortar and concrete. The prototype based on this new low carbon material was developed to monitor the hygrothermal behaviour with artificial neural network models. The results of the experiment on the risk of condensation and mold growth reveal that the chosen concrete mix can prevent condensation. Indeed, the high silica, aluminate, and calcium content of the smart Fly ash-Crepidula mixture reacts with water from humid ambient air to generate additional hydrates as a result of pozzolanic reaction, resulting in continual strength enhancement.In this thesis work, we were also interested by the stabilization of earthen construction using a cementitious binder and then by an organic binder. In the first part, we investigated the suitability of gravel washing sludge and seashells as an unfired earth construction material while using fly ash as a binder and cementitious stabilizer. Our results show that this mixture leads to a reduction in porosity, an increase in mechanical performance and a decrease in thermal conductivity with a higher specific heat capacity. In the second part, we used seaweed powder as a stabilizer for the cob construction. We studied the impact of substituting soil with seaweed powder (organic binder). For this new algae-based material, we observed an improvement in heat storage capacity and thermal performance without impacting mechanical properties. The development of the artificial neural network to predict the hygrothermal properties of the earth-algae-fiber prototype showed a good similarity between the experimental results and the model. Finally, the stabilization mechanism of the soil was studied using microstructural analysis techniques (XRD and Raman spectroscopy)

Full textThis work is based on the synthesis of geopolymers from different Tunisian clays. In order to understand the geoplymerization mechanisms two steps are established. The first is relate to the characterization of the raw clays materials through different analyzes and their behavior with thermal treatment. The second involve around the study of geopolymers feasibility in order to understand the role of associated minerals and particle size, in the presence of a reference solution and aluminosilicate sources, on the synthesized products. To identify the role of the alkaline solution, new formulations have been developed and compared with previous one in the presence of Tunisian clays. Several techniques are used to characterize the materials during their formation: Infrared Spectroscopy, X ray diffraction, Scanning Electron Microscopy analysis and Thermal analysis. Their mechanical properties were tested by compression

Full textThe work in this thesis focuses on the valorization of river sediments in sub-base. The characterization of these sediments allowed us to draw up their detailed identity card including physico-chemical geotechnical and environmental properties. This characterization is essential before any approach aiming to evaluate the potential use of the sediments in road engineering. The dehydration of the sediments is an essential pretreatment. Their dehydration has been optimized by using a method known as “bed of drying”. The influence of dehydration on the sediments characteristics by adding polymers (auxiliary of flocculation) was explored. In order to improve the mechanical performances of sediments, several treatments were developed and tested such as hydraulic binders or addition of granular reinforcements. These various treatments were tested on flocculated and non-flocculated sediments. To optimize the compacity of river sediments-additions (Bolonnais Sand) mixtures, we used the Compressible Packing Model. These results lead us to build an experimental board to validate our approach of valorization. A mechanical and environmental follow-up and analysis of percolation and runoff waters were carried out. The results achieved in laboratory and in-situ consolidate us to use rivers sediments in sub-base

Full textThe aim of this thesis is to study the potential of a natural bitumen (NB) mined in Albania in the production of hard bitumens (HB) and that of high modulus asphalt concrete (HMAC). Various petroleum refining techniques are available for the production of HB. Nevertheless, this is impossible with some crude oils. In addition, HB from refineries often present shortcomings which limit their applications. These reasons, coupled with practical issues related to HB supply, motivate the research of alternative methods. In this industrial context it is interesting to use NB. This study has shown that the Albanian NB provides HB and HMAC in accordance with European Standards, resistant to aging and relatively performant at low temperatures. The proper dosage of this NB allows the formulation of materials of desired properties, in response to the technical requirements of the considered road applications, facilitating in this way the use of bitumen stocks in asphalt concrete production plants

Full textThe modification of the microstructure and the interdiffusion as well as the intermolecular interactions induced by addition of EVA in the PE layer PE/binder/PA packaging films improve the seal ability and the optical properties without degradation of the mechanical and adhesion performances. Only the sleep ability is deteriorated. The addition of EVA in the tie layer improve the PEgMAH/PA6-66 adhesion properties modification of the type and the density of the intermolecular interactions between tie layer, PA and EVA. The substitution of a linear PA6 by a branched leads to a degradation of the PEgMAH/PA6 adhesion properties which is mainly controlled by the contact time between the polymers. The slip ability was adjusted by addition of slip agents in the (PE+EVA) layer whose efficiency is limited by the presence of the adjacent layers and the formation of a non-uniform lubricating layer. The use of nanofillers in the PA6 layer leads to an improvement of the mechanical properties but a limited reduction of the gas permeability

Full textThis thesis deals with the thermomechanical behavior of bituminous materials at low temperatures. The binder behavior was evaluated with three fundamental tests : i)the complex modulus determination, ii)the Bending Beam Rheometer and iii)the tensile strength at a constant strain rate and constant temperatures. A three point bending test on pre-notched bitumen beams was also developed. The thermo-mechanical mix behavior was studied by performing i)complex modulus tests, ii)measurements of the coefficient of thermal contraction, iii)tensile tests at constant temperatures and strain rates, and iv)Thermal Stress Restrained Specimen Tests. Apart from the determination of some pertinent links between binder and mix properties and discriminating characteristics with regard to the thermal cracking of bituminous mixes at low temperatures, the analysis has also consisted in modeling the behavior of bituminous binders and mixes, both in the small strain domain and in the large strain domain

Full textAprès une étude bibliographique sur la rhéologie et les propriétés thermo-mécaniques des bitumes, des mastics et des enrobés bitumineux, le travail expérimental mené aussi bien dans le domaine des petites déformations que des grandes déformations, est exposé.
Le comportement à basse température des bitumes a été évalué avec trois tests fondamentaux largement répandus : i)l'essai de module complexe, ii)l'essai de fluage au BBR, iii)l'essai de traction directe SHRP à vitesse de déformation constante et températures constantes. En outre, un nouvel essai de fissuration, consistant en un essai de flexion trois points sur éprouvettes de bitume préentaillées, a été développé à l'ENTPE. Les paramètres de ténacité et d'énergie de rupture des bitumes à basses températures ont pu être déterminés en utilisant les hypothèses de la MLR (Mécanique Linéaire de la Rupture).
Le comportement thermo-mécanique des enrobés bitumineux à basse température a été étudié en réalisant i)des essais de module complexe, ii)des mesures du coefficient de dilatation-contraction thermique, iii)des essais de traction à vitesses de déformation constantes, iv)ainsi que des essais de retrait thermique empêché.
Tout d'abord, des liens pertinents entre les propriétés des liants et des enrobés, et des caractéristiques suffisamment discriminantes au regard des propriétés à basse température des enrobés ont été mis en évidence. Ensuite, l'analyse a consisté à effectuer un travail de modélisation du comportement des liants et des enrobés, en petites et grandes déformations.
Un modèle rhéologique monodimensionnel, qui consiste en une généralisation du modèle analogique de Huet-Sayegh, a été développé dans le domaine des petites déformations. Ce modèle, appelé modèle “2S2P1D”, permet de simuler correctement à la fois le comportement visco-élastique linéaire des bitumes et celui des enrobés bitumineux. A partir de ce modèle, une transformation originale –indépendante du modèle– permettant de prédire le module complexe de l'enrobé à partir de celui du liant est proposée, puis validée.
Enfin, la dernière partie de cette thèse est consacrée à la loi généralisée monodimensionnelle “DBN” (Di Benedetto-Neifar) à partir de laquelle un programme a été développé sur l'interface Visual Basic du logiciel Excel. Ce programme constitue un outil simple de prévision du comportement de l'enrobé bitumineux sous diverses sollicitations (mécaniques et/ou thermiques). Ce modèle rhéologique permet de faire le lien entre les petites et les grandes déformations. Des simulations d'essais de traction à vitesses de déformation constantes, ainsi que des simulations d'essais de retrait thermique, monotones ou cycliques, sont enfin présentées.

Full textBetter knowledge about the mechanical behavior of foundry sand cores is required in order to optimize the aluminum cylinder head production process. Sand cores allow the casting of complex shape metallic parts and are made of sand grains, bound with a resin in low proportion. Sand cores are subjected to high temperatures and complex mechanical load during the production process. This study aims at characterizing the thermomechanical behavior of sand cores under various loads depending on the binder proportion, the temperature and mostly the binder thermal degradation. Particularly, we focus on the cores damage and fracture mechanisms. The understanding of such phenomena could lead to an optimization of the decoring step, consisting in the fracture and removing of the core from the metallic part. Indeed, the results of this Ph.D. thesis will be used to implement a numerical model of the decoring process. Different kinds of mechanical loads have been studied: bending, compression, shear, push-out, fatigue, creep or also oedometric tests. They correspond to different kinds of load, with or without confining pressure and allow a characterization of the bulk or the surface of the material. The core damage is followed by mechanical tests with unload-reload cycles sequences. For all the cases, the core mechanical behavior is highly dependent on the binder properties and thermal degradation. For example, the thermal degradation induced by the aluminum casting modifies and degrades significantly the core properties. Analogies could be drawn between the binder properties, bonded-sand cores mechanical behavior and the evolution of the fracture surfaces

Full textThis work concerns the behavior of slag and metakaolin based geopolymer concrete formulated using a sodium silicate solution as activator. The first part of the study focuses on the optimization of the geopolymer cement. To achieve this objective, a reference Portland mortar and twenty-four geopolymer ones were developed by varying the Slag/Metakaolin weight ratio (25/75, 50/50, 75/25) and the molar ratio SiO2/Na2O, RM, of the alkaline solutions (RM between 1.0 and 2.0). The mortars were characterized in the fresh state (workability and setting time) as well as in the hardened state in terms of flexural and compressive strengths, modulus of elasticity and porosity. The results showed that the geopolymer binder composed of 50/50 Slag/Metakaolin with a molar ratio RM of 1.8 allows obtaining a more resistant mortar than the reference one while ensuring a good workability and an excellent stability against efflorescence.The second part of the work deals with the behavior of geopolymer concrete, synthesized with the binder optimized in the first part of the thesis. In addition, the effect of curing conditions and the influence of recycled aggregates incorporation on the performance of these concrete were evaluated. Indeed, three curing methods were chosen, 20°C and 50% RH, 20°C and 90% RH and a total immersion in water at 20°C. For recycled aggregates valorization, three volumetric substitution ratios were selected: 10, 30 and 50%. For all materials, the properties in the fresh state and the physical and mechanical properties in the hardened state were studied. As regards the influence of recycled aggregates, it has been shown that their introduction induces a decrease in compressive and tensile strengths. However, at low substitution ratios (less than 30%), acceptable rheological and mechanical performances are obtained.The obtained results show that curing in a low relative humidity leads to poor physical and mechanical performance compared to hardening at high relative humidity and total immersion in waterThe experimental results of this work as well as a considerable number of results reported in the literature allowed to evaluate the reliability of the empirical equations developed for the prediction of the mechanical properties of Portland concrete. For the prediction of the tensile strength of geopolymer concrete, the proposed equation for Portland concrete remains applicable. Nevertheless, a new equation has been proposed for the prediction of the elastic modulus

Full textThe controlled packing of different sized-granules is a concept widely used in most of the shaping material processes. This hierarchical organization is known to improve the flow properties during shaping and the mechanical characteristics of the finished material. It seemed interesting to apply this concept in order to prepare catalyst supports by extrusion containing small (2 µm) and large (19 µm) porous alumina granules assembled by a traditional binder, the peptized and neutralized boehmite, or by a more original, an aluminum phosphate binder. This study aims to investigate the effect of binder type and of the multiscale microstructure achieved by the packing of different granules size on textural and mechanical support properties. The control of kneading and extrusion conditions associated with the optimized binder formulation, conducted to similar microstructures with both binders according to the amount of each granular population. Small granules fills better the residual spaces between the larges between 40 and 60 wt.% and loosens them with strongest contents. Binder shrinkage during heat treatment generates a macroporosity which is minimized when small granules fills the voids formed by the larger ones. Minimal macroporosity leads to better crushing resistance (by Brazilian test) and the most resistant materials are the ones shaped with the aluminum phosphate. This result is explained by the high cohesive capacity of this binder obtained in situ by reaction of the phosphoric acid with the boehmite and the border of the alumina granules. In this case, the breakage takes place inside the granules differently from the supports shaped with the peptized boehmite by nitric acid which present a breakage at the granule-binder interface. Also, the multiscale microstructure materials present a better tenacity determined by three point bending. Aluminum phosphate being a non-porous binder, leads to supports with a weaker mesoporosity. The new multiscale microstructure supports seem interesting for several catalytic applications that are sensitive to diffusivity and mechanical properties

Full textEven though the Li-ion technology is dominating nowadays battery market, it is suffering from the high cost and toxicity of some of its materials as well as struggling to reach the performance goals set by always more demanding hybrid and electric vehicles. Facing the need for a new battery generation, the lithium/sulfur (Li/S) technology stands as a promising candidate for a medium term industrialization and commercialization. Based on an abundant and low-cost active material, elemental sulfur, it enables practical energy densities two to three times higher than current Li-ion batteries. However, the intermediate electrochemical reactions of this system imply many dissolutions/depositions of the active material, causing important morphological variations at the positive electrode which have a major impact on the capacity and cycling performance of the batteries. Hence a better comprehension of those degradation mechanisms is required in order to develop new and innovating electrode materials enabling an optimization of the performance of the system. Therefore, the first goal of the thesis was to employ innovative in situ characterization techniques in order to develop tools allowing to link the properties of the different electrode materials to the performance of the batteries. To do so, three techniques were used: acoustic emission, X-ray tomography and dilatometry. Then, the conclusions drawn from the observations made from the characterization tools enabled us to focus the conception of the electrodes on using a new binder based on a polyelectrolyte material. In this work, we were in particular able to demonstrate a relationship between the measured acoustic activity during the first charge/discharge cycles of different electrode formulations to their mechanical properties. Then, coupling in situ X-ray tomography and diffraction enabled us to shed light on new phenomena linked to the dissolution and deposition of sulfur during the 1st cycle. Finally, the combination of the study of thickness variation via dilatometry, of the monitoring of the acoustic activity and of tomographic observations was the key to prove the better mechanical properties of the polyelectrolyte binder. Together with its properties of regulation of the sulfur species, our conclusions strengthen the certain interest in the family of materials as a binder of positive electrodes for Li/S batteries
