Une étude mathématique des équations aux dérivées partielles non linéaires présentant des solutions irrégulières ; A mathematical study of nonlinear partial differential equations exibiting irregular solutions Auteur(s) : Colombeau, Mathilde Auteurs secondaires : Antilles-Guyane Valmorin, Vincent Meril, Alex 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 http://www.theses.fr/2011AGUY0478/document | Partager |
Numerical model of crustal accretion and cooling rates of fast-spreading mid-ocean ridges Auteur(s) : Machetel, Philippe Garrido, C. J. Auteurs secondaires : Géosciences Montpellier ; Université des Antilles et de la Guyane (UAG) - Institut national des sciences de l'Univers (INSU - CNRS) - Université de Montpellier (UM) - Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) Instituto Andaluz de Ciencias de la Tierra (IACT) ; Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas [Spain] (CSIC) - Universidad de Granada (UGR) Éditeur(s) : HAL CCSD European Geosciences Union Résumé : We designed a thermo-mechanical numerical model for fast-spreading mid-ocean ridge with variable viscosity, hydrothermal cooling, latent heat release, sheeted dyke layer, and variable melt intrusion possibilities. The model allows for modulating several accretion possibilities such as the "gabbro glacier" (G), the "sheeted sills" (S) or the "mixed shallow and MTZ lenses" (M). These three crustal accretion modes have been explored assuming viscosity contrasts of 2 to 3 orders of magnitude between strong and weak phases and various hydrothermal cooling conditions depending on the cracking temperatures value. Mass conservation (stream-function), momentum (vorticity) and temperature equations are solved in 2-D cartesian geometry using 2-D, alternate direction, implicit and semi-implicit finite-difference scheme. In a first step, an Eulerian approach is used solving iteratively the motion and temperature equations until reaching steady states. With this procedure, the temperature patterns and motions that are obtained for the various crustal intrusion modes and hydrothermal cooling hypotheses display significant differences near the mid-ocean ridge axis. In a second step, a Lagrangian approach is used, recording the thermal histories and cooling rates of tracers travelling from the ridge axis to their final emplacements in the crust far from the mid-ocean ridge axis. The results show that the tracer's thermal histories are depending on the temperature patterns and the crustal accretion modes near the mid-ocean ridge axis. The instantaneous cooling rates obtained from these thermal histories betray these discrepancies and might therefore be used to characterize the crustal accretion mode at the ridge axis. These deciphering effects are even more pronounced if we consider the average cooling rates occurring over a prescribed temperature range. Two situations were tested at 1275-1125 °C and 1050-850 °C. The first temperature range covers mainly the crystallization range that is characteristic of the high temperature areas in the model (i.e. the near-mid-oceanic-ridge axis). The second temperature range corresponds to areas in the model where the motion is mainly laminar and the vertical temperature profiles are closer to conductive. Thus, this situation results in less discriminating efficiency among the crustal accretion modes since the thermal and dynamic properties that are described are common to all the crustal accretion modes far from the ridge axis. The results show that numerical modeling of thermo-mechanical properties of the lower crusts may bring useful information to characterize the ridge accretion structure, hydrothermal cooling and thermal state at the fast-spreading ridges and may open discussions with petrological cooling rate results.
