Modelling of interference fits with taking into account surfaces roughness with homogenization technique
2013
International audience; The assembly technique by shrink fit is increasingly used today because it allows for the assembly of two pieces without any intermediary part simply by the tightening effect given by the difference in diameters of the two parts assembled. The definition of assemblies depends on calculation models available in the standard. They make very restrictive assumptions that limit the geometrical defects and the surface finish. It is increasingly common to use a finite element method to better adapt the model to the complex forms of industrial parts. However, the standard is limited with regard to the consideration of roughness which results in a loss of tightening. An easy …
High-resolution infrared spectroscopy and analysis of the v2=v4 bending dyad and v3 stretching fundamental of ruthenium tetroxide
2017
International audience; RuO4 is a heavy tetrahedral molecule which has practical uses for several industrial fields. Due to its chemicaltoxicity and the radiological impact of its 103 and 106 isotopologues, the possible remote sensing of this compound in theatmosphere has renewed interest in its spectroscopic properties. We investigate here for the first time at high resolutionthe bending dyad region in the far IR and the line intensities in the 3 stretching region. Firstly, new high resolutionFTIR spectra of the bending modes region in the far infrared have been recorded at room temperature, using a speciallyconstructed cell and an isotopically pure sample of 102RuO4. New assignments and e…

Alignement moléculaire par impulsions laser ultrabrèves : Mesures & Applications
2009
The interaction of an intense ultrashort laser pulse with a molecular sample leads, after the end of the pulse, to molecular alignment at specific time under field-free conditions. This thesis is dedicated to the measurements and applications of this effect. The degree of alignment is determined through the variation of the refractive index induced by the rearrangement of the molecular dipoles. A two-dimensional technique allowing to measure molecular alignment on a single-shot basis is reported in this document. The alignment is then exploited in order to determine physical quantities which are usually difficult to estimate through others methods. The "cross-defocusing technique" has been …
On the 'expanded local mode' approach applied to the methane molecule: isotopic substitution CH2D2 <--- CH4
2011
International audience; On the basis of a compilation of the 'expanded local mode' model and the general isotopic substitution theory, sets of simple analytical relations between different spectroscopic parameters (harmonic frequencies, anharmonic coefficients, ro-vibrational coefficients, different kinds of Fermi- and Coriolis-type interaction parameters) of the CH2D2 molecule are derived. All of them are expressed as simple functions of a few initial spectroscopic parameters of the mother, CH4, molecule. Test calculations with the derived isotopic relations show that, in spite of a total absence of initial information about the CH2D2 species, the numerical results of the calculations have…
Tensorial development of the rovibronic Hamiltonian and transition moment operators for octahedral molecules
2001
Abstract We present a development of the Hamiltonian, dipole moment and polarizability operators of octahedral XY 6 molecules in a degenerate electronic state. These rovibronic operators are written with the aid of a tensorial formalism derived from the one already used in Dijon in the case of molecules in a non-degenerate electronic state. Electronic operators are defined from the group theory properties. Transition moment operators are introduced in order to consider rovibronic transitions. Spectrum simulations are made thanks to a new version of the HTDS sofware [J. Quant. Spectrosc. Radiat. Transfer 66 (2000) 16] used for the calculation of rovibrational spectra.
Molecular alignment echoes probe collision-induced rotational-speed changes
2020
International audience; We show that the decays with pressure of the rotational alignment echoes induced in N 2 O-He gas mixtures by two ultrashort laser pulses with various delays show detailed information about collision-induced changes of the rotational speed of the molecules. Measurements and classical calculations consistently demonstrate that collisions reduce the echo amplitude all the more efficiently when the echo appears late. We quantitatively explain this behavior by the filamentation of the classical rotational phase space induced by the first pulse and the narrowing of the filaments with time. The above mentioned variation of the echo decay then reflects the ability of collisi…
Etude des effets collisionnels dans les molécules tétraédriques. Applications au méthane perturbé par l'argon
1996
This thesis is devoted to the study of relaxational and collisional line-broadening processes in the first vibrational polyads of tetrahedral molecules. In a first part, the particular internal dynamics of such molecules is discussed. The second chapter reviews the literature on phenomena induced by intermolecular interactions involving this type of molecules. More theoretical aspects are developed in the second part. The so-called tetrahedral tensorial formalism adapted to the construction of Hamiltonians and transition moments of tetrahedral molecules is described. Main features of the infrared line-shapes theories and of semi-classical line-broadening and line-shifting calculations are a…
