Diouf, Edouard. "Ouvrages hydrauliques et modèle de gestion de l'eau dans le bassin du fleuve Casamance (Sénégal)." Thesis, Paris 10, 2013. http://www.theses.fr/2013PA100108.
Full textLocated in the south of Senegal, the Casamance basin has a significant potential for rice production. Despite climatic constraints, the local people practice paddy cultivation in the valleys. However, the persistence of negative effects has resulted in the awareness of the need to protect the rice-growing areas against the advance of salt and to improve the use of rainfall available. It is in this context that a number of small dams were built in Casamance by various development actors.This dissertation assesses the hydro-agricultural planning policies in Casamance that were implemented during the last five decades. This appraisal is quite bleak: most of the rice production development programmes did fail in lowlands. This Ph.D. proposes a framework for analyzing the overall situation through a multi-dimensional study: a political dimension at the national and regional levels, a socio-cultural dimension based on the “local”, and a technical dimension referring to small dams. The synthesis of these three entry ways enables to propose intervention models better adapted to the local context and realities

Full textThis PhD thesis investigates the fish migration continuity restoration in irrigation network, more specifically the highly regulated coastal marshes. We consider the study case of the Charras marsh (Charent estuary), and we focus on the eel migration (in particular on its lifestage part called glass eel). It is a highly regulated marsh where the flow regulate whiwh hydraulics structures: tide gates, flap gates, sluices gates. These structures are obstacles to glass eel migration. We start by studing specific structures for water management in coastal networks (flood gates and flap gates), and hydromechanical solutions for fish passage (blocks, stiffeners and floats). We propose an operating model for these specific structures that takes these hydromechanical solutions for fish passage into account. The model makes it possible to evaluate the impact of these solutions on the passabilities for fish, and on their performance in terms of hydraulic regulation. Then we studied the glass eel behaviour in front of a sluice gate. We verified, in situ, the swimming speed limit of the glass eel established by laboratory studies. And we showed that local flow modifications using roughnesses did not improve glass eel passage at sluice gate. The third part is devoted to the improvement of the glass eel passage at sluice gates (or weirs) by modifying their management rules. To evaluate the impact of these adaptations, a model of the marsh was built, based on the one-dimensional Saint-Venant equations and appropriate gate equations. It allows to evaluate the impact of the modifications of the control structures management (gate, flap gate, sluice gate,...) on: the key hydraulic parameters for the exploitation needs (water levels and flow rates), and the physical quantities of the flow controlling the passage of the elvers at the level of the structures (Flow velocities at the hydraulic structures). A fourth part presents several conductivity monitoring campaigns in the Charras marsh. They were made to assess the impact of restoring the fish migration continuity at coastal water control structures, on a freshwater hydrographic network. They show that the fish passage solutions allow saline intrusions that modify the flow: it becomes highly stratified

Full textThe cracks of different origins in hydraulic structures provide preferential paths for the penetration of various aggressive agents (such as liquid, gas, ions), which leads to decreased performance of these works (leakage, deterioration, loss of mechanical strength). The aim of the thesis is to study the consequences of cracking of hydraulic structures on mechanical and water sealing properties, and to study different possibilities to treat these cracks to improve and regain sufficient sealing. Moreover, recover partially the mechanical cohesion. Therefore, two aspects will be studied. The first aspect is to study the effect of crack opening on the penetration of carbon dioxide in a mortar. The second aspect is to study the capacity of healing of cracks from the point of view of mechanical (stiffness, bearing capacity), this study will be supplemented by chemical analysis and microscopic observations to characterize the nature of new crystals that precipitated in the crack

Full textIn Quebec, the concrete dams over fifty years are systematically studied since the Saguenay earthquake (1988, 6.2 on the Richter scale) because they were not sized for such hazards. For calculation of the reliability codes for Hydro-Quebec structures, different parameters on the morphology of structure and the physical and mechanical parameters are needed. Among these, the shear strength of interfaces (concrete-concrete, concrete-rock rock-rock) is particularly important because it determines the safety factor in large part. Moreover, it is commonly accepted that the roughness of the surfaces of rock discontinuities determines the mechanical behavior in shear. This study is divided into two parts: a study of taking samples from two dams of Hydro-Quebec and the conception of an artificial rock-concrete contact. Firstly, from shear tests realized under constant normal load, achieved on contacts from two dams, the principal component study of mechanical and roughness parameters was conducted to determine the parameters dominate (Z2, Z4, Extent). In addition, a field classification of discontinuities is proposed. The latter depends on various parameters such as the angularity of the surface, filling or oxidation of the surfaces of the discontinuity. Artificial rock-concrete contact has been studied in its entirety by various statistical and geostatistical methods in order to describe as precisely as possible its surface roughness. Once the last known, a map of coring with a 150 mm diameter core sampler has been decided. The collected areas are those with features of roughness, for example, a high angularity. Once the coring performed, samples were tested for shear resistance under a constant normal load. It follows a study of mechanical and roughness parameter and an underline of scale effect

Full textThe erosion is a major cause of failure in the hydraulic structures such as levees and dams. The territory has more than 10000 km of dikes, resulting in an important issue in terms of flood risk. A more general approach is essential to a good understanding of phenomena. Modeling mechanisms of erosion must develop solutions to secure the books and make them less susceptible to these phenomena. This work is devoted to modeling the evolution of an interface between a soil domain and a flow domain. The movement of this interface is governed by soil erosion driven by the flow. The flow is calculated by the Stokes equations with a penalty term for the unified representation of the behavior of the two domains. In a first part, we address the issue of representation of erosion. The second part deals more specifically with the unified representation of behavior settings, including the use of penalty methods. The third part is a review of the main methods of interface capture. A detailed description of the Level Set method is given. In the fourth section, , we discuss the numerical solution of flow equations. The fifth section brings together all of the testing method. The last part is devoted to applying the model in three cases: the "Hole Erosion Test", the phenomenon of suffusion and the erosion of river bed around a bridge pier

Full textThis research aims at modelling the hydro-mechanical behaviour of fissured rock masses by improvement and extension of a discrete element model, called BRIG3D. This model simulates fissured rock mass as a set of rigid blocks interacting along their interfaces. Interface deformation is related to the relative displacement of the corresponding blocks. Being subject to external loads, the total set of blocks moves until equilibrium is reached. The computation of this equilibrium has been improved by redefining the model description of the rigid block movement, the interface position and the stress distribution along an interface. To describe flow problems through blocks interfaces, a boundary element model has been developed. Flow through each interface is assumed to be laminar, stationary and planar. This hydraulic model has then been coupled with the mechanical model BRIG3D and used to analyse hydro-mechanical rock mass behaviour under varying loads ; In particulard, a study of a dam foundation has been carried out

Full textSuffusion is an internal erosion mechanism, which means detachment and transport of fine particles within the soil skeleton due to hydraulic seepage flows. Different researchers observed that value of critical hydraulic gradient required to initiate suffusion decreases with length of the specimen tested. A specific centrifuge bench was designed to study the suffusion process and to study this scale effect under a controlled effective stress. Clayey sand specimens were subjected to centrifuge acceleration and to a downward flow under a constant hydraulic head. The study underlines the influence of specimen length on critical hydraulic gradient and also on the rate of erosion. A new energy analysis of tests is developed, linking the erosion rate to the power expended by fluid flow, and the eroded clay mass to the energy dissipation. This method permits the effect of specimen length to be avoided

Full textGranular materials generally exhibit a broad spectrum of mechanical properties. Developing constitutive models to integrate these properties in the context of simulations at the structure scale remains a real scientific challenge. In this respect, multi-scale approaches offer very promising solutions as they allow the emergence of macroscopic properties from micromechanical models calibrated on a microscopic scale.Among the multiscale models, the H model marks a major step forward in taking into account the effects of the microstructure in the behavior of granular materials. The structure of the granular material is described by an assembly of hexagons, oriented in space. From homogenization operations, stresses and incremental strains are related to the scale of the assembly, giving rise to a constitutive model that has the ability to reproduce the essential mechanical properties of granular materials.We first study the mechanical properties of the hexagonal grain assembly in order to identify the conditions leading to the triggering of its instability. We then carry out a study of the sensitivity of the constitutive model with respect to micro-mechanical and microstructural parameters. Finally, we demonstrate the operational capacities of the model from triaxial undrained tests carried out on a liquefiable loose sand.In a second step, the H model is implemented as a constitutive law in a finite difference code. Simulations of non-homogeneous biaxial tests are carried out in order to explore the model's capacities to reproduce the different failure modes observed in the laboratory. The use of the H model to model drained and undrained biaxial tests highlights the influence of the microstructure on the mechanical response of granular materials. Finally, model H is used in numerical simulations at the structure scale to model the loading of a shallow foundation and the failure of a levee subjected to a flooding event

Full textInternal erosion is one of the main causes of instabilities within hydraulic earth structures. In literature, four different internal erosion processes are distinguished. This study deals with suffusion which corresponds to the coupled processes of detachment-transport-filtration of the soil’s fine fraction between the coarse fraction. The suffusion susceptibility characterization was mainly researched through grain size based criteria for the initiation of process. However the influence of other physical parameters has to be considered. A statistical analysis is performed in order to identify the main parameters and to focus on those which can easily be measured on existing structures. By distinguishing gapgraded and widely-graded soils, two correlations are proposed to estimate the soil suffusion susceptibility. By performing suffusion tests with two different-sized devices, the results show the significant effect of specimen size on critical hydraulic gradient and on erosion coefficient. The interpretation of all tests by energy based method permits to avoid this spatial scale effect. With the objective to investigate the influence of flow direction, a new device is designed and realized for the industrial purpose. The new device and associated experimental methodology are validated by the comparison of test results with results of triaxial erodimeter tests and oedopermeameter tests. Finally, tests performed on heterogeneous specimens highlight the influence of flow direction. Moreover, under a horizontal flow without any downstream filter, the development of suffusion in clayey sand can lead to the piping process

Full textThe biocementation process is considered as a promising technique for strengthening loose and weak soils. This technique has shown very good efficiency for several types of soil through laboratory tests and large scale models. On the other hand, it has shown a high sensitivity to the treatment conditions such as reactant concentrations, bacteria, injection rate, type of soil, temperature, etc…. These factors influence mainly the spatial distribution of the precipitated calcite, its shape and morphology, which subsequently influences the effective properties of the treated soils. This thesis is part of the French research project BOREAL, which aims at reinforcing old dykes and earth dams with this technique against internal erosion of the core and liquefaction of foundations. The objective of this thesis is to study the evolution of the physical and mechanical properties of biocemented sands (permeability, mechanical strength) by performing mechanical tests and permeability measurements in the laboratory and linking this evolution to microstructural changes by using quantitative 3D X-ray imaging tools. To do this, this work began with biocementation tests on Fontainebleau sand to verify the feasibility of the biocementation process in the laboratory. After these feasibility tests, drained triaxial tests have been carried out on the biocemented sand in order to estimate the evolution of its resistance parameters such as cohesion and friction angle. Small sub-samples of biocemented sand with different calcite contents have been then extracted and observed using X-ray micro-tomography at ESRF at a very high resolution (0.65 μm / pixel). Quantitative methods of 3D imaging have been developed to compute mean microstructural properties (amount of calcite, porosity, specific surface area and specific surface area of calcite) and contact properties (contact surface area, coordination number, type of contacts, contact orientation, etc…) for the different observed sub-samples. This study has shown a strong evolution of the resistance of biocemented sand (non-linear evolution of the cohesion, quasi-linear evolution of the friction angle, a slight increase of the residual resistance, etc...) and a decrease of the permeability by the precipitation of the calcite inside the sample. The quantitative study of the evolution of the microstructure has shown a stability of the specific surface area of the calcite beyond a certain level of calcification, a strong quasi-linear evolution of the cohesive contact surface between the grains as well as a slight evolution the coordination number (creation of new contacts). The comparison of these evolutions with those obtained considering a simple cubic periodic arrangement using two precipitation scenarii (uniform and localized at the contact) has shown that the precipitation of the calcite mainly occurs in the zones of inter-granular contact. This microstructural information have4 been then used successfully in micromechanical models to estimate the effective properties of biocemented sand (cohesion, permeability, elastic moduli). Finally, the same tools have been used to study the chemical durability of biocemented sand. This study has shown a degradation of sand resistance by dissolving calcite within the samples. The quantitative measurements on the 3D images have shown a degradation of the contact surface area without hysteresis with respect to the evolution of these contact surfaces during the biocementation process

Full textMultiphase granular materials occupy a very important place in our environment that are of great interest to many scientific communities, including those of soil mechanics or geotechnical engineering. The divided nature allows multiphase granular media to have a global mechanical behaviour which originates from all component phases, their distribution and interactions. Acoupled hydromechanical model is presented in this work for the application to microscopic modeling of coupled hydromechanical in saturated granular materials. The numerical model uses a combination of the discrete element method (DEM) with a pore-scale finite volume (PFV) formulation of flow problem of an incompressible viscous fluid. The solid is modeled as an assembly of spherical particles, where contact interactions are governed by elasto-plasticrelations. Stokes flow is considered, assuming that inertial forces are small in comparison with viscous forces. Pore geometry and pore connections are defined locally through regular triangulation of spheres, from which a tetrahedral mesh arises. The definition of pore-scale hydraulic conductivities is a key aspect of this model. In this sense, the model is similar to a pore-network model. The emphasis of this model is, on one hand the microscopic description of the interaction between phases, with the determination of the forces applied on solid particles by the fluid, on the other hand, the model involves affordable computational costs, that allow the simulation of thousands of particles in three dimensional models. Permeability measurements on bidispersed glass beads are reported and compared with model predictions and empirical formulas/semi-empirical in the literature, validating the definition of local conductivities and bringing out the role of particle size distribution and porosity. A numerical approach to analyze the fluid-solid mechanical interaction and mechanisms of internal erosion is finally presented

Full textContact erosion is a type of internal erosion which occurs at the interface between two soil layers of different particle sizes. Particles from the fine soil (sand, silt, clay…) are pulled and driven by the flow through the pores of the surrounding coarse soil (gravel ...). Although its presence is suspected in many earthfill embankments, this process has been little studied so far. The aim of this thesis was to better understand and, possibly, to model contact erosion. At pore scale, the flow at the interface between two porous media was characterized thanks to an experimental device, developed in Cemagref, combining Planar Laser Induced Fluorescence, PIV method and Refractive Index Matching. The spatial variability of flow shear stress has been emphasized. At sample scale, several tests on real and reconstituted soils were carried out in LTHE, in order to identify the phenomena involved in contact erosion. Erosion rates as a function of flow magnitude have also been measured for different types of fine and coarse soils. Then, a stochastic model was proposed to account for these experiments. Finally, large scale tests were conducted in the laboratory of Compagnie National du Rhône, to study the influence of scale effects as well as the consequences of contact erosion on global behavior and integrity of the embankment structure. The possibility of piping initiation by contact erosion was underlined. This thesis is part of the project ERINOH project and was funded by EDF-CIH

Full textIn France, a large stock of hydraulic earth structures dedicated to producing hydroelectricity, to navigation and to water supplying generates substantial economic and security challenges. Regarding flood protection structures, there is no year without a failure and more than 70 incidents were recorded in 25 years by the French Committee on Large Dams. The DC-Electrical Resistivity Imaging (ERI) method is very sensitive to soil state parameters and is widely accepted as one of the relevant geophysical methods for the survey and the monitoring of hydraulic earth structures. However, using ERI in a conventional manner is likely to yield image artifacts. This is due to the lack of information in the measured data and the fact that the full complexity of the problem and available a priori information are usually not accounted for. Therefore, new approaches of data acquisition and inversion have been developed. This development aims at filling the gap between more classical 2D and purely 3D approaches, by optimising a compromise between acquisition cost and model reliability. The research work has implied developing a finite element approach for the forward problem and a Gauss-Newton algorithm for the 3D inverse problem. Finally, experimental campaigns were conducted on both a semi-controlled embankment and a real hydraulic embankment in order to test and validate the developments in more realistic conditions. Outcomes indicate that interpretation capability and quality can be significantly enhanced by using these news approaches

Full textOvertopping of fluvial dikes (dykes or embankment levees) can promote external erosion, leading to the initiation of breaching and potentially brutal dike failure and inundation of the protected area. This can generate major human, economic, and financial losses. Flood risk management and prevention require precise hazard quantification. Accurate estimate of the flow through the breach is paramount, for which a precise understanding of the breach formation and expansion is required. Existing methods are often the result of investigations conducted on overtopping of frontal dikes (embankment dams). The application of such approaches to fluvial dikes is not reliable and processes underpinning breach expansion are still under research. An innovative experimental program was conducted to fill this gap by investigating the physical processes involved in overtopping induced fluvial dike gradual breaching. Experiments were conducted in the framework of collaboration between the National Laboratory for Hydraulics and Environment (LNHE) of the R&D division of EDF and the research team Hydraulics in Environmental and Civil Engineering (HECE) of University of Liège. Experiments were conducted on two distinct experimental setups, each consisting of a main channel and floodplain area separated by an erodible fluvial dike. The focus was made on overtopping induced spatial erosion of homogenous, non-cohesive dikes. Measurements included continuous scanning of the dike geometry using a non-intrusive method (Laser Profilometry Technique), which was designed and developed specifically for the present works. Tests conducted under controlled flow and dike configurations allowed assessing the effects of channel inflow discharge, downstream channel regulation system, and floodplain confinement on the breach development and outflow. Effects of main channel size, dike material size, apparent cohesion, and bottom erodibility were studied as well. Using the experimental data, the flow features near the breach area was simulated using the two-dimensional depth-averaged hydrodynamic code TELEMAC-2D, which allowed assessing the performance of the code for highly transient and complex flows such as involved in dike breaching. Coupling TELEMAC-2D with the morphodynamic model SISYPHE enabled investigating the interest of a detailed hydro-morphodynamic modeling for fluvial dike breaching studies

Full textThe performance assessment of embankment hydraulic works is a major challenge for managers in charge of their security. For both dikes and dams, the presence of trees represents an important fragility factor. Two types of deterioration mechanism can thus be initiated or aggravated: internal erosion or scouring. However, this factor has been taken only partially into account in existing assessment models. In addition, small embankment dams can have different sealing devices and are not always equipped with drains and monitoring instruments: it is thus necessary to customize the models in each case. The aim of the thesis was to remove these scientific obstacles. The results of our research concern the design of performance assessment models relying on knowledge-based approaches.The approach was implemented for real works: three sections of river dikes and seven small embankment dams which allowed us to show its relevance and therefore its operational potential

Full textInternal erosion processes are responsible for the majority of instabilities within hydraulic earth structures. Among these processes, suffusion is the volumetric process gathering detachment, transport and possibly filtration of some transported particles. In literature, the suffusion kinetics has been little tackled, unlike its initiation. This study deals with suffusion kinetics for which a new relationship inspired from the energy approach is proposed. This relationship uses two parameters that characterize the end of the suffusion process and one parameter that governs its development. This relationship is validated against existing experimental results and is compared with two other relationships inspired from the literature. The main advantages of the energy-based law are to limit the cumulative eroded mass with a cap value and to use experimentally measurable parameters. To model this phenomenon, a thermo-poro-elastic model is developed within the mixture theory framework. The saturated erodible soil is represented by a two-phase four-species mixture. Solution to the governing equations is obtained numerically using the finite element approach. Finally, the capabilities of the model are presented at both the sample scale and the scale of a physical model of dike. The numerical simulation of the dike model shows promising results, particularly for the magnitude of the cumulative eroded mass and the spatial distribution of fine particles. This study opens the way to further research opportunities concerning the simulation of earth structures based on laboratory measured parameters

Full textIn this paper, a numerical study is conducted to assess the stability of the seaward facing slope of breakwaters under hydrodynamic loading using a coupled fluid-structure interaction framework. Stability characteristics of breakwaters have traditionally been analysed using empirical approaches which do not take into account important factors such as nonlinear wave-structure effects. A modelling framework is proposed for coupling deformable discontinuous media (DDA) with a finite element method (FEM) for solving free-surface flows where the Navier-Stokes equations are solved for velocity and pressure. It is necessary to take into account contacts between different shaped blocks and this study assumes that contact constraints are imposed through an augmented Lagrangian algorithm. To illustrate the performance of the proposed framework two breakwaters consisting of cubic and acropod shaped blocks are simulated under hydrodynamic forces

Full textWoody vegetation from earth dikes or dams is a fragility factor which can promote mechanisms of degradation such as erosion. An accurate assessment of root system structure, from geophysical non-destructive methods, of root position into the embankment (depth, extension), and a good knowledge of soil conditions are critical in order to anticipate the consequences of vegetation development for the hydraulic structure’s safety. Laboratory experiments allowed determining intrinsic acoustical and electrical root properties leading to identify relevant signatures and discriminate anomalies related to roots in the field. The establishment of adapted experimental devices led us progressively to assess different parameters (roots mass, water content. . . ) under controlled conditions. Experiments in semi-controlled conditions with trees planted into a homogenous soil, were conducted to assess the relevance of different methodologies, such as the use of temporal induced polarization in complex resistivity tomography or the geometry of sensors for acoustical tomography. Innovative data processing such as wavelet analysis were used to valorize the rich database. The results were validated by the determination of actual root position.Finally, field investigations into an embankment have been performed to highlight a spatial variability of dike structures associated with trees presence. A methodology adapted to the geophysical diagnostic of vegetation roots in embankments was developed

Full textThe networks of the flows can bi found in several fields, in particular in the hydraulic installations, the hydrographic systems, on the surface or in-depth of the grounds. Thus, the understand of the flows and the processes of transport of solute in the flow network is paramount to control the flows, the risks of the pollution by the dissolved substances or more generally the management of water in these systems. The interest of this work is to contribute to the knowledge of the mechanisms of transfer mass in the networks at various levels of coupling convection - diffusion. For this purpose, a theoretical and numerical study of the slow flow and mass transfer by convection - diffusion is carried out initially in a two - dimensional simple structure with is made up of the orthogonal junction of four channels with parallel walls of the same dimension. Then, a study of networks of several channels which cross themselves is carried out. The theoretical study of the Stokes flow in a junction of four channels enabled us to determine the function of current and calculate the structure of the flow according to the division of the discharges. The structures of flows in the possible configurations in two-dimensional condition are given. It is shown in particular that movements in the form of cells of recirculation are established in the channels of low flowrate. When a channel is closed, it appears that the cells of recirculation attached to the walls of the channel. The number and the structure of these cells also depend on the structure of the flow in the junction. This work is extended to the network of several channels laid out in square meshs containing two entries and two exits. Because of the interest in the flows in the parallel junction canals, we find that the flows in these channels are constant beside the first one. More generally, the flow in the successive junction canals obeys a geometric progression with common ratio 3. 9. Once the stream lines were built, the transport of a solute in the junction is analyzed for various levels of coupling convection - diffusion quantified by the Peclet number varying from 10 to 100,000. This transport is examined for one or two solute sources located in one or two entries. The field of concentration as well as the time of transport depends on the distribution of the discharges and Peclet number. We show in particular the influence of the recirculation on the mass transfer to a large Peclet number (>1000). Under this condition, contours of concentration follow the shape of the lines of recirculation. Besides these movements of recirculation delay the mass transfer more and more strongly when the Peclet number grows. A thorough analysis of the case of the presence of closed channel (cavity), in situation of pollution and depollution is led. The process of depollution is carried out either after the concentration in the cavity reached the maximum, or after the concentration in the center of the recirculation reached a rate of 0. 3. The comparison of the times of solute transfer shows that the speed of pollution is equal to that of the depollution of a cavity polluted until saturation. However, for a polluted cavity at a lower rate, the speed of depollution is lower than the speed of pollution

Full textThe woody vegetation implanted on dikes and dams is well known for its many positive effects including bank stabilization, biodiversity, shade, etc. Thus, managers have left trees growing on these sites. But, recent studies show that trees and their root systems in particular may cause a range of damage such as uprising, cracking and deconstruction leading to internal risks and external erosion risks for hydraulic structures. A strengthening of the regulations for dikes and dams has obliged managers and owners to ensure the control, the technical monitoring and maintenance of their structures. However, regulations about use of plant protection products have also been reinforced, particularly with the ministerial ruling of 4 may 2017 (NOR : AGRG1632554A) forbidding the use of such products (including chemical herbicides) less than 5 m from bodies of water. These regulations in constant evolution forced a change in the usual practices thereby leaving managers confronted with an important problem of vegetation developing on their dikes and dams. Management plans must be elaborated in order to conciliate security, environmental and landscape issues. But traditional mechanical methods (logging, cutting and root extraction) are destructive for hydraulic structures and landscapes. It is urgent to set up preventive management techniques on young trees which potentially could constitute a risk when they grow.This thesis focuses on the search of alternative methods of devitalization of young trees generating risks on dikes and dams. The first part of research, divided in three Phases, consisted of screening and optimizing in greenhouse and field a range of possible and effective methods on the most predominant tree species found on hydraulic structures in France. The second part, also divided in three Phases, aimed to put in place a screening of selected methods on field test methods, and, at the same time, optimize methods according to specific parameters (trees shape, security of workers…). This second part, only conducted on black Poplars, has highlighted various constraint and revealed partially effective methods. The last Phase in field, realized only on black Poplars, has shown the effectiveness of three methods (mechanical wounding, mechanical wounding coupled with biochemical, mechanical wounding coupled with thermal) at six months after treatment. The trees treated in the field will be observed by ARBEAUSOLutions staff in 2018 to confirm the efficiency twelve months after treatment. In September 2017, two potential effective methods have been submitted for patent protection in order to enable further tests in situ and ensure protection of industrial property rights. The results of this research suggest that the effectiveness of strategies for devitalization depends on the intensity and timing of treatments to avoid that the tree responds by initiating resprouts and suckers for its survival

Full textThis thesis deals with monumental fountains or nymphaea in the Roman North Africa provinces from the 1st to the 4th century CE. We have made up a catalogue of the monuments and inscriptions, composed from bibliographical and archaeological sources compiled on-site. We first sum up the history of research on hydraulics in ancient North Africa and then we study in detail the technical and architectural aspects of monumental fountains. We offer a synthesis on building techniques and hydraulic system as well as architectural and ornamental reconstruction with the help of literary and iconographic sources. Avoiding to establish a typology, we contextualise the fountains both within the city and the hydraulic network. Thus we put forward the insertion of fountains in the city and their link with the founding of a new water supply or town-planning programmes. These observations make possible a study of how the fountains were spread out in the urban space and to what extent it had a decorative and functional impact. By studying inscriptions, we may better understand how euergetism worked, just as the behaviour of cities and notables faced with these monuments. We may also go back to questions of vocabulary which imply to think about the appellation of fountains and their religious function

This PhD work focus on the study of a hydrodynamic separator used to capture large wastes before their discharge into the see. Tangential separation mechanism along a screen is used in this device. The first part of the work consists in studying the hydraulic behavior and the clogging effectiveness of the device with laboratory experiments. A CFD multiscale approach was developed in this work to optimize the shape of the screen in order to avoid clogging. This method, validated against experimental data, allows us to predict that expanded metal stripes are useful to develop turbulence and pressure gradients upstream the screen. This hydrodynamic phenomenon favor particles and pollutants ejection near the apertures. The last part of the work was to study the hydrodynamic behavior and the real efficiency with in situ experiments

Full textFrance's embankment network stretches over 9000~km, protecting people and infrastructures. Overtopping occurs when water level rises above the embankment's crest, often leading to breach development. Reliable forecasting of breaches' characteristics (widening rate, final geometry and breach hydrograph) remains a challenging task. Furthermore, the effects of river dynamics have never been studied.This work is based on a campain of five overtopping tests performed on scaled homogeneous cohesive model embankments, carried out in an eight meters recirculated flume. The classical steps of dike breaching were observed, as wall as headcutting. Depending on soil type and water content, erosion occured at three distinct scales (sand grain, mm, cm) while the experiments' durations ranged from 1h30 to 250~h. Evidence was brought that river dynamics can result in a completely asymmetric development of both the breach and scour pit. Simple geotechnical tests showed notable differences on erosion modes and rates among tested soils, consistently with the flume experiments.The study of fixed-width breaches showed that distinguish hydraulic phenomena such as hydraulic jumps and recirculations arise when lateral flow speed increases on the river side, which comes with an important drop in breach flow.In addition, bidimensional numerical simulations offered a practical and satisfying way of modelling breach hydraulics. In particular, the strong surface deformation and important velocity gradients in the vicinity of the breach were well-rendered. Elements relative to breach formation sensitivity to erosion parameters (threshold stress and erodibility coefficient) are also provided

Full textBrown trout (Salmo trutta) ecology was largely studied. However, the process structuring the spatiotemporal patterns of population dynamics remains unclear. The objective of this thesis was to identify the demographic processes (e.g. survival or displacements) and the influence of biotic (between-individuals interactions) and abiotic (environmental conditions) processes structuring the age-stages (fry, juveniles and adults) of these populations in time and space.I studied (1) the role of density-dependence on survival and (2) the influence of environmental conditions experienced by trouts (hydraulics and water temperature). To assess the results’ transferability, I studied (3) the spatial scale (global or local) of influence of the processes and (4) if those processes varied among populations (hierarchical approach).I considered the dynamics of 45 trout populations, 22 being located downstream a hydropower facility. At a large scale, the recruitment of distant populations (up to 75 km apart) may be synchronized by large floods during emergence of fry or by spawning substratum displacements. We summarized the results of a determinist population dynamics models, locally calibrated on nine reaches showing well-described environmental conditions. This summary revealed the influence of various local drivers on population dynamics. Finally, a hierarchical model showed that density-dependent mortality among juveniles and adults was a key biotic process. The strength of the competition was greater in absence of shelter (<2% of the surface) and varied with water temperature (decreasing for juveniles and increasing for adults).The results of this work will provide scientific basis to hydropower facility managers. This will help them to reduce their influence on trout populations and respond to regulatory demands

Full textThe objective of this work concerns the resource utilization of the marine sediment set, by an approach of the methodologies implemented in China. The processes for stabilizing and solidifying the selected sediments are based on hydraulic binders and activators for various construction work.The first chapter introduces the concepts of sediments in China (distribution) and their management in coastal areas (resource utilization).The second chapter is a bibliographical study of current practices on sediment recovery using hydraulic binders. In this section, we mainly discuss the techniques and their principles as well as laboratory tests. This takes into account the current development and trends in construction on China's coastline, as well as current sediment management (from a regulatory perspective), the subject of the first introductory chapter.The second chapter is devoted to the methodology of general characterization of the materials used: sediments and components. How are the physical and chemical characteristics, mineral composition and environmental impact of the dredging sediments to be treated and the binders used.The third chapter presents the technique of solidification/stabilization through five projects for different geotechnical works. For each case of study, laboratory tests and on-site tests are described. Then the analysis of the results of tests in order to compare the effectiveness of the different treatments applied is carried out precisely on the effects of the materials implemented within the proposed works.The fourth concluding chapter focuses on assessing the environmental impact of sediment solidification and on the comprehensive analysis of the application of treated marine sediments in construction work in particular benefits social and economic growth. A perspective of work to be pursued, and needs for applied research are the final chapter

Full textThe image of Benares (Kāśī, Varanasi) is closely associated to the architecture of its riverfront composed of ghats – steps and terraces – that stretch out in a monumental way on the concave bank of a meander formed by the river Ganges. The expansion of this riverfront has to be understood in relation to a cultural tradition that demands a close proximity to the waters of the river. The construction and development of this riverfront in time and the various ways in which each architectural element is integrated with the river bank, calls into question its impressive urban unity that forms a public space extending more than 6 km. The aim of this thesis is to identify the elements that have contributed to the origin and the development of this front. The architectural and urban form of the ghat is considered as a constructed flexible device adapted to a specific river environment, a characteristic topography and to practices linked to the culture of the place, which allows for easy access to the varying levels of the river's water level. Based on pictorial archives, interviews, measure drawings done on site and on official planners' drawings, I examine the techniques of hydraulic constructions best adapted to counter the river's currents, I observe and analyze the relations between the riverbank, the geography and the urban landscape so as to better approach the ghats' architecture and I explain the materialization of the ghat through the diverse practices and the symbolic trajectories that surround it. The particular relation that the city entertains with its river, through the architecture of ghats, explains its urban potential inherent to its development in time and space i.e. along its river bank

Full textScour is the removal of riverbed sediments by the erosive action of flowing water. Scour depth is greater near structures as a result of the obstruction to the flow by bridge piers and abutments, or docks, wind turbines and offshore pipelines in a marine environment. The existence of scour holes may decrease the bearing capacity of the structure and threaten its stability. Therefore, it is crucial to develop monitoring techniques to track the evolution of scour depth in real-time and evaluate its consequences on the behaviour of the structure. This thesis is a contribution to the use of vibration based techniques for scour monitoring and provides an insight to the soil-structure interactions involved. Two proposed approaches can be distinguished in this study: indirect and direct. The indirect approach aims to develop a scour depth sensor (SDS). Experimental and numerical studies have been conducted to evaluate the effect of scour, on the one hand, on the dynamic response of the sensor (frequencies, modal shapes, damping), on the other hand, on its static response under lateral loading. Based on the findings, a theoretical model of an equivalent cantilever beam was proposed to predict the variation of the sensor frequency as a function of scour depth. The direct approach focuses on the effect of scour on the structure itself. To this end, experimental campaigns were conducted on laboratory scale models tested in a flume. Particular attention was paid to the effect of the pile geometry and the pile-deck interaction. An analytical model was proposed to correlate the variation of the pier frequency to scour depth. Experimental and numerical results were compared to assess the model validity

Full textFlows over hydraulic works – a nappe falling over a spillway, a wave breaking on a dike, etc. – undergo strong mixtures of air and water that lead to the appearance of white waters with complex dynamics. Faithfully capture the phenomenon of air bubbles entrainment/entrapment in the flowing water is therefore pivotal for the design of those works. Both experimental and numerical modeling prove to be complex due to high density ratio between phases and the multiscale nature of those flows involving turbulence and surface tension effects. The SPH (Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics) method, a fully Lagrangian approach that models the flow as a set of moving particles without any mesh, is particularly well-suited to simulate such highly-distorted flows. Nevertheless, the current computational limits still prevent one from finely simulating industrial application cases with large domains in hydraulics. In this work, we aim at simulating macroscopically those flows with a mixture model in which each SPH particle stands for a moving volume of air and water. The derivation of the continuous equations of this mixture model is first detailed, then a state of the art of multiphase simulations in SPH is presented. Equipped with this continuous model and the existing discretization tools, a two-phase SPH mixture model is then derived and implemented on GPU (Graphics Processing Unit). A focus is made on original elements developed in the discretization, especially the derivation of a scheme with good numerical properties to follow the phase volume variations and the writing of an open boundary framework for mixtures. Turbulence, prominent for the air entrainment phenomenon, is modeled with a k-ϵ model including a buoyancy term. This model is validated against bidimensional academic test cases of increasing complexity, namely an oil-water separation, a two-phase Poiseuille flow, the Rayleigh-Taylor instability and a sand dumping case, proving its versatility. The air entrainment phenomenology is then described and the model is applied to common structures in hydraulics such as plunging jets and stepped spillways by introducing a specific closure for the relative velocity between phases. Finally, first industrial application cases with complex geometries and dynamics are presented

Full textThe common thread running through my work is the development of safety formats capable of taking uncertainties into account, particularly with regard to actions, material properties and structural behavior, in order to safely design civil engineering structures while respecting the economic balance of the construction sector. The semi-probabilistic limit-state format of the Eurocodes is the starting point. I explain how for a quarter of a century, with the support of an international scientific community, I have been seeking to adapt and apply this format to various types of marine and harbor structures (quays, dams, breakwaters, etc.) and the actions they are specifically subject to (swell and actions of the marine environment, forces due to ships, port operating loads). I situate this semi-probabilistic format alongside other methods (probabilistic, deterministic, socio-economic), and explain the different types of safety coefficients derived from it. I place the Eurocodes format within the broader framework of risk analysis: this gives it a rather original meaning and demonstrates its powerful pedagogical effectiveness. The discussion on the notion of admissible risk and the different approaches used to build consensus around it is intersected with a more detailed presentation of the partial coefficient calibration methods I have developed and applied for quays, dams and breakwaters, always seeking a balanced relationship between safety and economics. In this context, I explain how my approach to taking uncertainties into account has been renewed by a collective reflection on risks and uncertainties in the economic cost-benefit analysis of public investment projects. My involvement in teaching, scientific leadership and standardization efforts illustrates, extends and enhances this academic work.In particular, I describe the work that led to the development of a method based on statistical theory for determining the characteristic values of soil properties, and the work that filled a gap in the knowledge of the mechanical behavior of sheet-pile cofferdams. I describe how the flexibility of the European format was used to define the limit states of structures subject to hydraulic action (breakwaters, dams). I report on the collaborative work I led to determine safety coefficients for quays and mobile weirs in rivers compatible with the Eurocodes format; and in particular how several model coefficients (on actions and resistances) were calculated so that the resulting designs remained close to previous satisfactory designs, while standardizing and homogenizing calculation approaches. I also show how the powerful mathematical concept of the return period was used to directly define the design value for wave action, without having to apply a partial coefficient to the characteristic value.The outlook for future developments essentially involves adapting tools for dealing with uncertainty to take account of climate change. The non-stationarity of probability distributions describing natural phenomena can no longer be ignored. Taking uncertainties into account in civil engineering will mean tackling other, more radical forms of uncertainty, with little or no probabilistic background, concerning the environment and the functions of civil engineering structures. As a result, the robustness requirement of the Eurocodes would have to be supplemented by a new, broader requirement for resilience

Full textThe construction of a hydraulic structure starts with the selection of the materials that will constitute it. The soils used in the construction of hydraulic earthen structures may be made of permeable materials such as sands or low permeability materials such as clay or silt. Depending on the availability of materials near the site, it is possible to choose different types of structures (homogeneous structures, core or zoned). In all cases, the cost of such a structure as a dike is even lower than the soils used for its construction come from areas near the site. When soils are sufficiently available near the construction site, but their use is risky for the stability of the structure, it may be appropriate to seek to modify their characteristics so they can be used in the same security conditions than traditional materials. It is around this issue that this thesis was born. More particularly, this research aims to study the improvements made by a lime treatment on a coarse soil subjected to internal flow to stabilize against the phenomenon of internal erosion. Understanding improvements requires the establishment of a multi-criteria analysis through dedicated tests. In the first part, we are interested in developing a testing device for performing internal erosion tests on this type of soil. This device has enabled us to realize a phenomenological study of the phenomena observed with the direction of flow and the presence or not of the treatment. Subsequently a parametric study was conducted to highlight the influence of the main parameters: treatment dosage, treatment time, height of the specimen and overload. In the second part, we studied the influence of immersion samples in water for this purpose the crumb test test was adapted for this type of soil. Additional unconfined compression tests were conducted to estimate the loss of strength after immersion. This allowed us to try couplings between the properties to erosion and soil treated mechanical properties
