Résumé : International audience
We discuss various methods of regularization of singular differential problems. Their common point is that we use the flexibility of the theories of nonlinear generalized functions for adapting the regularization to the singularity of the problem. We particularly underline the relationship between the generalized solutions and those classical or distribution, when they exist, giving a general result for the case of the regularization of data.

Résumé : International audience
By means of convenient regularization for an ill posed Cauchy problem, we define an associated generalized problem and discuss the conditions for the solvability of it. To illustrate this, starting from the semilinear unidirectional wave equation with data given on a characteristic curve, we show existence and uniqueness of the solution

Résumé : This work is devoted to the theoritical research and to the numerical calculus of weak solutions (in the sens of generalized functions) for the non linear transport equation((∂u)/(∂t))(x,y,t)+a(x,y,t)((∂f(u))/(∂x))(x,y,t)+b(x,y,t)((∂g(u))/(∂y))(x,y,t)=0 pour t>0with the initial condition u(x,y,0)=u₀(x,y) where the functions {(x,y,t)→a(x,y,t)} and {(x,y,t)→b(x,y,t)} belong to L^{∞}(R²×R⁺) (but can be discontinuous), the functions f and g are smooth and monotonous, the function {(x,y)→u₀(x,y)} belongs to L^{∞}(R²). We recall the necessary notions on nonlinear generalized functions for introducing their tensorial product. The main results (to determine the weak solutions) are sufficient conditions so that, when a sum of généralized functions (like Heaviside or Dirac products) is associated with zero, each terms of the sum is equal to zero. Thanks to these theoretical results, we can solve the Riemann problem with the help of a solver written like tensorial product of Heaviside functions (or like a sum of tensorial product of Heaviside functions) in order to obtain the weak solutions. These weak solutions allow to develop two dimensional numerical Godunov type schemes. Then, numerical tests are performed which give a comparison between the results obtained by these 2D schemes and the ones of the splitting method. These tests prove that the 2D numerical schemes are as reliable as the ones obtained by splitting. They are also more simple in their expression. Moreover, a more detailed comparative study of the two types of numerical schemes show that the 2D schemes are far less expensive in the linear case as well as in the non linear case. They are stable for the L^{∞} norm, unlike the splitting schemes. At least some perspectives as well as an existence theorem of a strong solution "almost eveywhere" for linear hyberbolic systems are studied.
Nous nous intéressons à la recherche et au calcul numérique de solutions faibles (au sens des fonctions généralisées) de l'équation de transport non linéaire((∂u)/(∂t))(x,y,t)+a(x,y,t)((∂f(u))/(∂x))(x,y,t)+b(x,y,t)((∂g(u))/(∂y))(x,y,t)=0 pour t>0complétée de la condition initiale : u(x,y,0)=u₀(x,y) où les fonctions {(x,y,t)→a(x,y,t)} et {(x,y,t)→b(x,y,t)} appartiennent à L^{∞}(R²×R⁺) (mais peuvent être discontinues), les fonctions f et g sont lisses et monotones, la fonction {(x,y)→u₀(x,y)} appartient à L^{∞}(R²). Des rappels sur les fonctions généralisées nous permettent d'introduire leur produit tensoriel. Un des résultats clés (pour déterminer ultérieurement les solutions faibles cherchées) donne des conditions suffisantes pour que, lorsqu'une somme de fonctions généralisées (de type produit d'Heaviside ou de Dirac) est associée à 0, chacun des termes de la somme est nul. Grâce à ces résultats théoriques, on résout le problème de Riemann 2D à l'aide d'un solveur s'écrivant comme produit tensoriel de fonctions type Heaviside (ou comme somme de produit tensoriel de fonctions type Heaviside) afin d'obtenir les solutions faibles. Ces solutions faibles permettent la construction des schémas numériques de type Godunov 2D. Nous les validons par des test numériques comparant les résultats obtenus par ces schémas 2D et ceux de la méthode du splitting. Ces tests montrent que les schémas numériques 2D sont aussi fiables que ceux par splitting, alors qu'ils sont plus simples dans leur écriture. Une étude comparative plus complète entre les deux types de schémas numériques montre de plus que les schémas 2D sont nettement moins coûteux à la fois dans les cas linéaire et non linéaire et qu'ils sont stables pour la norme L^{∞}, contrairement aux schémas par splitting. Enfin des perspectives ainsi qu'un théoréme d'existence de solutions fortes "presque partout" pour des systèmes hyperboliques linéaires sont abordés.

Résumé : International audience
We show that a new definition of the asymptotic structure of the (C,E,P)-algebras (which are a refinement of the Colombeau Generalized Algebras) allows to define a natural topology on them. Furthermore, this topology can be mixed with functorial aspects of the construction in order to give extension principles, which give powerful tools to solve singular differential problems in this framework.

Résumé : International audience
The production of oil in soft highly compacted reservoirs produces a significant reduction in the pore space which in turn causes the surface to subside. The authors couple two simulators to model the mechanical deformations in the presence of a Darcy flow, both one- and two-phase. The simulators solve for flow in a porous medium using a finite volume method, and solve for the mechanical deformation of the porous media using a finite element method. The flow equations and the deformation equations are coupled using Biot's law. The authors use two different methods for the coupling: the first uses a staggered algorithm; the second is based on a preconditioned conjugate method. The authors use a multiscale method in both approaches. The authors show that the inf-sup condition is not satisfied, because of the mixed discretization which is done by using two separate simulators. The authors give convergence comparisons for the two methods for several examples. Two of the examples are for the linear problem (one-phase) where they know the exact solution and one is for the nonlinear problem (two-phase). In all cases, the preconditioned conjugate algorithm is faster and more robust, in particular when the inf-sup condition is not satisfied. In the nonlinear problem the authors state that the results agree with physical predictions but do not give actual empirical data. Finally, they show the effects of grid orientation on the nonlinear problem.

Résumé : To appear in TOPOLOGICAL METHODS IN NONLINEAR ANALYSIS (16 pages).
In the last two decades, many algebras of generalized functions have been constructed, particularly the so-called generalized Sobolev algebras. Our goal is to study the latter and some of their main properties. In this framework, we pose and solve a nonlinear degenerated Dirichlet problem with irregular data such as Dirac generalized functions.

Résumé : International audience
The full numerical simulation of turbulent flows in the context of industrial applications remains a very challenging problem. One of the difficulties is the presence of a large number of interacting scales of different orders of magnitude, ranging from the macroscopic scale to the Kolmogorov dissipation scale. In order to better understand and simulate these interactions, new algorithms of incremental type have recently been introduced, stemming from the theory of infinite-dimensional dynamical systems (see, e.g., the algorithms of Foias, Jolly et al. (1988), Foias, Manley and Temam (1988), Laminie et al. (1993, 1994), Marion and Temam (1989, 1990), and Temam (1990)). These algorithms are based on decompositions of the unknown functions into a large- and a small-scale component, one of the underlying ideas being to approximate the corresponding attractor. In the context of finite element methods, the decomposition of a solution into small- and large-scale components appears when we consider hierarchical bases (Yserentant, 1986; Zienkiewicz et al., 1982). In the present article we derive several estimates of the size of the structures for the linear and nonlinear terms which correspond to interactions of different hierarchical components of the velocity field, and also their time variation. The one-step time variation of these terms can be smaller than the expected accuracy of the computation. Using this remark, we implement an adaptive spatial and temporal multilevel algorithm which treats differently the small- and large-scale components of the flow. We derive several a priori estimates in order to study the perturbation introduced into the approximated equations. All the interaction terms between small- and large-scale structures are frozen during several time steps. Finally, we implement the multilevel method in order to simulate a bidimensional flow described by the Burgers equations. We perform a parametric study of the procedure and its efficiency. The gain in CPU time is significant and the trajectories computed by our multi-scale method remain close to the trajectories obtained with the classical Galerkin method.

Résumé : International audience
This paper is concerned with a null controllability problem for nonlinear parabolic equations appearing in mathematical biology. We consider a system of two equations with a nonlocal nonlinearity, in a bounded domain Ω of ℝN0, N0 being a positive integer sufficiently small. Such models can be used in the context of dynamics of biological systems to describe the migration of population (of bacteria in a container). Our aim is to find a control common to both equations, which solves the null controllabillity of the studied system under constraints on the state. A similar control problem has recently been addressed for the Laplace operator, so the present paper extends those results.

Résumé : International audience
In this paper, we solve a problem describing the mechanical deformations of a porous medium in the presence of a monophasic linear flow or a two phase nonlinear flow with the purpose of modelizing subsidence of hydrocarbon reservoirs. An essential characteristics of this problem is that the mechanical deformation and the flow have different time scales. In petroleum industry, one uses different very efficient simulators for the flow problem and the mechanical deformations, which enables to handle complex models. Therefore it is necessary to be able to combine as efficiently as possible the exploitation of these simulators. We propose two alternative splitting approaches. The first one is the staggered algorithm used by engineers, which amounts to a Gauss-Seidel method in the one phase linear case. The second approach is based upon the preconditioned conjugate gradient method. We use a numerical multi-scale method in both of these algorithms. We compare these two approaches and we show that the preconditioned conjugate gradient algorithm is faster and more robust than the staggered algorithm. Applying the preconditioned conjugate gradient algorithm therefore seems to compensate for the fact that the inf-sup condition for the mixed discretization method is not satisfied when combining the simulators for the mechanical deformations and for the flow computations.

Résumé : International audience
The massive integration of sustainable energies into electrical grids (non-interconnectedor connected) is a major problem due to their stochastic character revealed by strongfluctuations at all scales. In this paper, the scaling behaviour or power law correlationsand the nature of scaling behaviour of sustainable resource data such as flow velocity,atmospheric wind speed, solar global solar radiation and sustainable energy such as,wind power output, are highlighted. For the first time, Fourier power spectral densitiesare estimated for each dataset. We show that the power spectrum densities obtained areclose to the 5/3 Kolmogorov spectrum. Furthermore, the multifractal and intermittentproperties of sustainable resource and energy data have been revealed by the concavityof the scaling exponent function. The proposed analysis frame allows a full descriptionof fluctuations of processes considered. A good knowledge of the dynamic of fluctua-tions is crucial to management of the integration of sustainable energies into a grid.

Résumé : Cette thèse à pour objet l'étude théorique et numérique de solutions dans les équations aux dérivées partielles non linéaires de la physique, en particulier en dynamique des fluides. La présence de discontinuités dans les solutions de ces équations complique la compréhension mathématique des phénomènes mis enjeu et leur traitement numérique, notamment en vue de simulations informatiques . Nous étudions ces équations par une méthode de régularisation dans un espace fonctionnel approprié. Lorsque des schémas numériques construits par des méthodes différentes conduisent à des résultats identiques, ceci jusque dans leurs moindres détails, il semble alors naturel de s'interroger dans quelle mesure ces suites de solutions numériques constituent une approximation d'une solution des équations étudiées. Nous construisons des suites de solutions approchées à partir d'un schéma numérique original,stable et suffisamment simple pour démontrer que ses suites constituent une méthode asymptotique de Maslov au sens des distributions en dimension trois d'espèce. La technique de régularisation employée consiste à étendre les variables réelles du problème ne des variables complexes, ce qui nous permet de construire des familles de solutions particulières que l'on ramène au cas réel en faisant tendre un petit paramètre vers O. Les solutions physiques recherchées apparaissent alors comme valeurs au bord de fonction holomorphes. Nous illustrons les résultats obtenus par des applications en cosmologie dans les cadres Newtoniens et relativistes pour des systèmes sans pression, puis avec pression et auto-gravitation, ainsi que pour le système des gaz parfaits.
This thesis is devoted to the theoretical and numerical study of singular solutions appearing in nonlinear partial differential complicates the mathematical understanding of the phenomena under concem as well as their numerical treatment, in particular in view of computation. These equations are studied by a regularization method in an appropriate functional space. When completely different numerical methods give the same results up to the smallest details one can reasonably expect that these numerical results suggest the existence of a mathematical solution of theses equations. We construct sequences of approximate solutions from an original numerical scheme, which is stable and simple enough to prove that these sequences constitute a Maslov asymptotic method in three space dimension. The regularization technique in use consits in extending the real variables of the problem into complex ones, which perrnits to construct families of particular equations that we bring back to the real case by letting a small paramater tend to zero. The expected physical solutions appear as boundary values of holomorphie functions . Illustrations are given by applications to cosmology in the Newtorian and re1ativistic settings for pressure1ess fluid dynamics, then in presence of self-gravitation and pressure as weil as for the systemof ideal gases

We give new results on nonlinear properties of the asymptotic singular spectrum in the multi-parameter case, a tool to describe the singularities of generalized solutions associated to problems which are classically ill-posed. Wa apply the theory to a transport equation with strongly irregular coefficients and initial data.

Résumé : International audience
In this paper, the generalized Stokes problem αu−νΔu+∇p=f, ∇u=0, is considered, where ν denotes the kinematic viscosity, α is a positive parameter proportional to the inverse of the time-step, and the source term f gathers the external forcing, the nonlinear term, and the explicit part of the linear term. The system is derived from a time discretization for the Navier-Stokes equation governing the motion of a two-dimensional incompressible fluid. A domain decomposition numerical method is developed for solving the system. The original domain is divided into several nonoverlapping subdomains, and in each subdomain the concerned equations are discretized by certain finite element methods. A new feature of the method is that the pressure p is required to be piecewise linear rather than piecewise constant, so that the nonphysical oscillations in the solution using piecewise linear pressure are eliminated. However, a difficulty in using piecewise linear pressure is that the Stokes problem in each subdomain involves Dirichlet boundary conditions on pressure at the interface, which is not a real Stokes problem. To avoid the difficulty, a modification is proposed which removes the continuity conditions on the pressure across the interface. In this way, the Stokes problem in each subdomain has only Dirichlet boundary conditions on the velocity. Formulations and discussions for both the methods are presented, which shows that the modified method is simpler than the original one. Numerical experiments are displayed to show the efficiency of the methods, especially that the modified method has the same accuracy as the original one.

Résumé : La thèse est consacrée à la recherche des catastrophes marines (tsunamis, ondes de tempête) dans les Antilles françaises, en utilisant des modèles analytiques et numériques de mécanique des fluides. L'accent est mis sur le développement de modèles de mouvement de glissements de terrain et des vagues causées par ces glissements. Le modèle le plus simple du glissement de terrain «solide block» est utilisé pour évaluer les caractéristiques des flux pyroclastiques du volcan Soufrière-Hills (Montserrat). Un modèle plus complexe de modélisation de glissement de terrain (modèle de Savage-Hutter) a été étudié analytiquement, donnant ainsi une nouvelle famille de solutions exactes décrivant le mouvement de l'écoulement par gravité non linéaire dans une vallée ou dans un canyon sous-marin. Le modèle comprend des ondes simples (Riemann waves),le cas d'un barrage qui cède (dam-break problem), des solutions auto-similaires dans la M-fonne et « chapeaux paraboliques ». Grâce à la théorie linéaire de l'eau peu profonde nous avons étudié le processus de génération de tsunamis par des glissements de terrain de volume variable, se déplaçant à une vitesse variable dans un bassin de profondeur variable. Dans le cas d'un fond marin particulier (cas sans "réflexion"), les phénomènes de résonnance ont été étudiés dans un bassin à profondeur variable. Nous avons utilisé des méthodes numériques pour la résolution non-linéaire des équations des eaux peu profondes afin d'analyser des catastrophes marines réelles (les ondes de tempête causées par le cyclone Lili en 2002, le tsunami volcanique de 2003 à Montserrat) et probables (un tsunami prés des côtes de la Martinique). Des données sur les catastrophes
The dissertation is devoted to research in the field of marine natural hazards (tsunamis, storm surges) in the French West Indies, using analytical and numerical models of fluid mechanics. Emphasis is placed on the development of models of landslide motion and generated tsunami waves. The simple "solid block" model is used to evaluate the characteristics of pyroclastic flow Soufriere Hills volcano (Montserrat). The "fluid model" of a landslide (so called Savage-Hutter model) is studied analytically; within this model a new family of exact solutions that describe the motion of nonlinear gravity flow in a valley or underwater canyon is found: nonlinear Riemann wave, dan break problem, self-similar solutions (M - wave and parabolic cap). In the framework of the linear shallow water theory the process of generation of tsunami waves by landslides of variable volume moving with variable velocity above the basin of variable depth is studied. For the specific bottom profile ("reflectionless" one) the resonant phenomena is investigated in the basin of variable depth. Numerical methods are used to analyze marine hazards: historical (storm surges, caused by Cyclone LILI in 2002; volcanic tsunami 2003 on Montserrat) and possible events (possible tsunami of the coast of Martinique). Various data on marine natural disasters are obtained during field surveys (volcanic tsunami in 2003, stonn surges caused by Hurricane Dean in 2007). Designed catalogs of tsunamis and storm surges are created based on results of numerical modeling and field studies; some statistical analysis is perfomed

Résumé : International audience
Starting from a locally convex metrisable topological space and from any asymptotic scale, we construct a generalized extension of this space. To those extensions, we associate Hausdorff topologies. We introduce the notion of a temperate map, with respect to a given asymptotic scale, between two locally convex metrisable semi-normed spaces. We show that such mappings extend in a canonical way to mappings between the respective generalized extensions. We give an application to nonlinear Dirichlet boundary value problems with singular data in the framework of generalized extensions

In a previous work, one of the authors has studied a numerical treatment (by fully implicit discretizations) of a two-dimensional Navier-Stokes-like problem and has proved existence and convergence results for the resulting discretized systems with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. In this work, we propose some new preconditioned multilevel versions of inexact-Newton algorithms to solve these equations. We also develop another multilevel preconditioner for a nonlinear GMRES algorithm. All of the preconditioners are based on incremental unknowns formulations.

Résumé : International audience
This article is concerned with a generalization of the hybrid steepest descent method from variational inequalities to the multivalued case. This will be reached by replacing the multivalued operator by its Yosida approximate, which is always Lipschitz continuous. It is worth mentioning that the hybrid steepest descent method is an algorithmic solution to variational inequality problems over the fixed point set of certain nonexpansive mappings and has remarkable applicability to the constrained nonlinear inverse problems like image recovery and MIMO communication systems
