▼ The primary
subject of this thesis is the evaluation of pipeline performance during earthquakes through analytical and experimental studies, spatial analysis, and probabilistic methodologies. Permanent
ground deformations caused by liquefaction are also addressed through spatial and statistical analysis, and are compared to foundation deformations caused by liquefaction effects estimated through building damage surveys. This thesis starts with a comprehensive analytical and experimental assessment of segmented pipeline response to transient
ground deformation before and after rehabilitation with in situ lining technologies. The different modes of segmented pipeline
deformation caused by seismic wave propagation are investigated through finite element analyses to show that the most prominent form of
deformation at weak pipeline joints and circumferential pipe cracks are in the axial direction. They exceed the levels of all other forms of pipeline
deformation by several orders of magnitude. Nonaxial deformations have negligible effects on pipeline performance under seismic body wave propagation. Pipeline performance after rehabilitation with in situ linings is studied through large-scale testing and the effectiveness of in situ lining technology for seismic retrofit of critical lifelines is evaluated. Pipeline performance during earthquakes is also investigated through spatial analysis of the Christchurch water distribution system response to transient and permanent
ground deformations during the 22 February 2011 Christchurch earthquake, New Zealand (NZ). Repair regressions for different pipe types are developed using spatial data sets that are unique in size and complexity, including dense array
ground motion records, detailed mapping of areas affected by soil liquefaction, as well as spatial data sets for the water distribution system, geocoded repair records, and high resolution Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) measurements of vertical and horizontal movements. This study expands on previous work in several important ways, and provides a detailed framework of the analytical processes for repair regressions that assists in future investigations with data of similar size and complexity. A probabilistic model is presented in which the expected value of the
ground strain in the axial pipeline direction within a strain field is calculated by assuming that pipeline orientation with respect to the strain field is uniformly distributed and by accounting for possible differences in tensile and compressive strains with a weighting factor. The proposed methodology is applied in regression analysis of pipeline damage caused by lateral
ground strains during the 22 February 2011 Christchurch earthquake, NZ, and can be used for future investigations to improve the assessment of
ground strains affecting segmented pipelines. Permanent
ground deformation during the 2010-2011 Canterbury Earthquake Sequence, NZ, is evaluated through statistical analysis of vertical and lateral
ground displacements, as well as differential vertical…

▼ We propose a new technique, based on the elastic theory, to efficiently produce an estimate of three-dimensional surface displacement maps by integrating sparse Global Positioning System (GPS) measurements of deformations and Differential Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (DInSAR) maps of movements of the Earthà à à à à ¢ s surface.
Previous approaches known in literature to combine GPS and DInSAR data require two steps: a first step in which sparse GPS measurements are interpolated in order to fill in GPS displacements in the DInSAR grid, and a second step to estimate the three-dimensional surface displacement maps by using a suitable optimization technique.
One of the advantages of the proposed approach, with respect to the previous ones, is that it does not require preliminary interpolation of the observed deformation pattern. Indeed, we propose a linear matrix equation which accounts for both GPS and DInSAR data whose solution provides simultaneously the strain tensor, the displacement field and the rigid body rotation tensor. The mentioned linear matrix equation is solved by using the Weighted Least Square (WLS), thus assuring both numerical robustness and high computation efficiency.
The proposed methodology was tested on both synthetic and experimental data, these last from GPS and DInSAR measurements carried out on Mt. Etna during the 2003-2004 time interval. In order to appreciate the results accuracy standard estimated errors are provided. These tests also allow optimising the choice of specific parameters of this algorithm.
This method can be further exploited to account for other available data sets, such as additional interferograms, or other geodetic data (e.g. levelling, tilt, etc.), in order to achieve higher accuracy.

▼ The existence of highest proton numbers at which the nuclear landscape cease to ex-
ist, the end of the periodic table of elements and the limits of the existence of the nu-
clei are some of the difficult questions to answer. To explore those questions, we in-
vestigated hyperheavy nuclei (<i>Z</i> ≥ 126) using covariant density functional theory. We
demonstrate the existence of three regions of spherical hyperheavy nuclei centered around
(<i>Z</i> ∼ 138, <i>N</i> ∼ 230), (<i>Z</i> ∼ 156, <i>N</i> ∼ 310) and (<i>Z</i> ∼ 174, <i>N</i> ∼ 410). Also, we explored
other properties of hyperheavy nuclei such as octupole
deformation, alpha decay half lives,
chemical potential, etc.

▼ Tiltmeters have been widely applied in the engineering
field for precise angle measurement. The recent adoption of surface
tiltmeter array in monitoring geologic CO2 storage has further
expanded the reach of this technology. During reservoir
surveillance, tiltmeter array detects sub-millimeter level surface
movement, delivers valuable input for reservoir management, and
provides safety assurance to the general public. While achieving
the high sensitivity, tiltmeter array also bears negative effect
from the amplified environmental and cultural noise. The control
and quantification of noise signals become more important in
reservoir surveillance as noise signals approach injection signals
in both temporal scale and amplitude. A surface array consisting of
15 tiltmeters is deployed in the Aquistore geologic CO2 storage
site southwest of Estevan, Saskatchewan, Canada. The design and
deployment of tiltmeter array successfully delivers satisfactory
reservoir coverage and sustains an insulated operational
environment. In the baseline phase two years of tilt data are
collected and analyzed for the composition of noise signals. Earth
tides, surface meteorological conditions and seismic activities all
contribute to the observed baseline tilt pattern. In order to
remove the impact of noise signals, three general methods are
proposed based on the revealed signal characteristics. A
statistical regression method is used to quantify linearly-provoked
tilt signal such as that from solid earth tide. For complex
processes such as the impact of surface precipitation, a numerical
modelling approach is adopted to estimate the scale of induced tilt
signal. As tiltmeter sensors exhibit temperature dependent
behavior, a calibration method is proposed. With the removal of
noise signals from tilt measurement, the tiltmeter array technology
is improved with more accurate and unbiased surveillance output
monitoring CO2 injection and storage.

▼ This thesis addresses the performance of jointed pipelines
subject to
ground deformations triggered at a large scale by earthquakes and a construction-related scale by tunneling. Understanding and quantifying jointed pipeline response at these scales allows for better design, operational management, and risk assessment of underground infrastructure, where cast iron (CI) and ductile iron (DI) pipelines in the U.S. account for approximately 75% of water distribution systems. The thesis covers the response of DI and molecularly oriented polyvinyl chloride (PVCO) pipelines to earthquaketriggered soil movement as well as CI and DI pipeline response to tunneling. A series of specially designed four-point bending experiments and 3D finite-element (FE) simulations were performed to characterize DI push-on joints commonly used in water distribution systems to develop a relationship between the rotation and axial pullout at both metal binding and first leakage. The results of uniaxial tension and onedimensional compression tests on the elastomeric gaskets in DI push-on joints were implemented in numerical models that show joint leakage to be independent of load path, with a unique pressure boundary that predicts leakage for many combinations of axial pullout and rotation. The increased circumferential strength, reduced pipe wall thickness, and enhanced cross-sectional flexibility of PVCO pipelines was evaluated through the characterization of PVCO material properties, axial joint tension and compression tests, four-point bending tests, and a full-scale fault rupture experiment. A nominal 150-mm (6-in.)diameter PVCO pipeline is able to accommodate significant fault movement through axial tensile and bending strains in the pipe in combination with modest levels of axial slip at the restrained joints. Relatively large levels of axial strain in the low modulus PVCO material, which varies between 1% and 2% at pipeline failure, are able to sustain substantial extension and compression from
ground movements. Soil/pipeline interaction modeling was performed for vertical and horizontal
ground movements caused by tunneling in jointed CI and DI pipelines perpendicular to the tunnel centerline that (1) extend beyond the width of the settlement profile and (2) connect through 90° tees with a pipeline parallel to the tunnel. The modeling incorporates the results of large-scale laboratory tests. Guidance is provided for design and the identification before tunneling of potential difficulties. In particular, CI tees are at high risk when
subject to tunneling induced soil movement, whereas DI pipelines and tees have sufficient capacity to accommodate high levels of tunneling related
ground deformation. iv

▼ Environmental reconstruction of ancient glacial environments encompasses a variety of evidence sources that include morphology, sedimentology and structures within sedimentary deposits. The analysis of glaciotectonic
deformation structures is one source of evidence that can be utilised, in tandem with other sources, in determining the glaciological scenario and foreland/bed characteristics present either at the time of deposition or during subsequent reworking. Interpreting evidence of glaciotectonic
deformation requires guidance from modern analogues, where the majority of the literature is largely restricted to the Northern Hemisphere. Research on glaciotectonism has not been carried out on modern glacier margins in the South Island, and the range of investigations on Late Pleistocene deposits is very limited. This study focuses on the Hawea moraine and, based on a combination of geomorphological, sedimentological and geophysical techniques, evidence of glaciotectonic
deformation in both the extensive glaciolacustrine sediments and glaciofluvial gravels was found.
Deformation observed included normal faults and folds resulting from melt out and the removal of supporting ice following retreat, and thrusts, folds, and normal and reverse faults as products of ice advance into the deposit. Variation in the type and extent of
deformation throughout the deposit was attributed to localised differences in the glacial stress field and sediment type and its associated properties, which influence its yield strength such as grain size distribution, pore-water content and structure. Based on the findings in the Hawea moraine and limited literature on glaciotectonic
deformation in the eastern valleys of the Southern Alps, it is clear that, at this stage, one regional model of ice marginal
deformation cannot be applied to Late Pleistocene deposits in the South Island. It was shown that modern analogues drawn from the Northern Hemisphere do not adequately account for the thermal controls on glaciotectonic processes in the South Island, and the relative importance of glaciodynamics and the paleoenvironment of the glacial foreland remains unclear.

▼ This thesis engages the construction of a particular kind of artwork, namely an artwork that functions as an occult device, capable of affecting the physical body of the viewer as well as the space the artwork occupies. The procedure described is a process of searching out and defining the formal, aesthetic, affective, and theoretical parameters inherent to the production of such a picture. The methods outlined reflect these defined elements, speaking to issues of materiality as they relate to the eventual dispatch of esoteric affects. The results described here and referred to in the text are a series of artworks that embody the tenets of the research carried out. These works are material, phenomenologically perceptible objects that elicit affect from physical bodies. The conclusion of these results is the definition of a model; it is the construction of a pictorial device capable of projecting immaterial transmissions.

▼ In recent years, ground deformations were observed in and around Kiruna city region [67º49'48"N, 20º25'48"E] caused due to the mining of iron ore near the city. The main focus of this thesis is to study the performance of Stanford Method of Persistent Scatter (StaMPS) processing developed by A.Hooper, to determine the ground deformation around this region and its ability to measure wide range of deformation rates in different seasons and terrains at such high latitudes. The Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data from Envisat satellite collected over the study area, during the time period of 2002-2010 is used for the application of StaMPS technique. The ground deformation rate in mm/yr along line of sight direction of satellite is obtained. The consistency of estimated values and the estimates obtained by using Coherent Target Monitoring technique (CTM) on data from Radarsat-2 satellite is then verified. A comparative analysis is done by decomposing line of sight deformation rate into vertical deformation rate and deriving the linear relationship between both of them. The results show that the StaMPS technique is able to identify deformation around 0-3 mm/yr in the central city area and greater than 5 mm/yr in the region close to the mine. The performance of the technique is better using summer data rather than the winter, when ground is covered with snow. The vertical deformation estimates from using CTM technique and Radarsat-2 data and of Envisat data using StaMPS technique are in the same range, i.e, [0 8] mm/year in overall study area but are highly consistent in only some of the regions.

▼ The Mw 7.8 Kaikōura earthquake of November 14th 2016 provided unprecedented opportunities to understand how the
ground deforms during large magnitude strike-slip earthquakes. The re-excavation and extension of both halves of a displaced paleoseismic trench following this earthquake provided an opportunity to test, refine, and extend back in time the known late Holocene chronology of surface rupturing earthquakes on the Kekerengu Fault. As part of this thesis, 28 organic-bearing samples were collected from a suite of new paleoseismic trenches. Six of these samples were added to the preferred age model from Little et al. (2018); this updated age model is now based on 16 total samples. Including the 2016 earthquake, six surface rupturing earthquakes since ~2000 cal. B.P. are now identified and dated on the Kekerengu Fault. Based on the latest five events (E0 to E4), this analysis yields an updated mean recurrence interval estimate for the Kekerengu Fault of 375 ± 32 yrs (1σ) since ~1650 cal. B.P. The older, sixth event (E5) is not included in the preferred model, as it may not have directly preceded E4; however, if this additional event is incorporated into an alternative age model that embraces all six identified events, the mean recurrence interval estimate (considered a maximum) calculated is 433 ± 22 yrs (1σ) since ~2000 cal. B.P.
Comparison of structures on an identical trench wall logged both before and after the 2016 earthquake, and analysis of pre- and post-earthquake high resolution imagery and Digital Surface Models (DSMs), has allowed the quantification of where and how ~9 m of dextral-oblique slip was accommodated at this site during the earthquake. In addition to this, I analyse the coseismic structure of the adjoining segment of the 2016
ground rupture using detailed post-earthquake aerial orthophotography, to further investigate how geological surface structures (bulged-up moletrack structures) accommodated slip in the rupture zone. These combined analyses allowed me to identify two primary
deformation mechanisms that accommodated the large coseismic slip of this earthquake, and the incremental effect of that slip on the structural geology of the rupture zone. These processes include: a) discrete slip along strike-slip faults that bound a narrow, highly deformed inner rupture zone; and b), distributed
deformation within this inner rupture zone. The latter includes coseismic clockwise rotation of cohesive rafts of turf, soil and near-surface clay-rich sediment. During this process, these “turf rafts” detach from the underlying soil at a mean depth of ~0.7 m, shorten by ~2.5 m (in addition to shortening introduced by any local contractional heave), bulge upwards by < 1 m, and rotate clockwise by ~19° - while also separating from one another along fissures bounded by former (now rotated) synthetic Riedel faults. This rotational
deformation accommodated ~3 m of dextral strike-slip (of a total of ~9 m), after which this rotation apparently ceased, regardless of the total slip or the local kinematics (degree…

▼ Measuring millimeter and smaller
deformation has been demonstrated in the literature using RADAR. To address in part the limitations in current commercial satellite-based SAR datasets, a University of Missouri (MU) team worked with GAMMA Remote Sensing to develop a specialized (dual-frequency, polarimetric, and interferometric)
ground-based real-aperture RADAR (GBIR) instrument. This thesis details a number of my efforts on experimental and processing activities at the start of the MU GBIR imaging project. A number of initial-processed GBIR image products are presented from four dams: Longview, Blue Springs, Tuttle Creek, and Milford. Excellent imaging performance of the MU GBIR has been observed for various target types such as riprap, concrete, soil, rock, metal, and vegetation. Strong coherence of the test scene has been observed in the initial interferograms.

▼ Deep soil mixing to construct stiff columns is one of the methods used today to improve performance of loose
ground and remediate liquefaction problems. This research adopts a numerical approach to study seismic performance of soil-cement columnar reinforcements in loose sandy profiles. Different constitutive models were investigated in order to find a model that can properly predict soil behavior during seismic excitations. These models included NorSand, Dafalias-Manzari, Plasticity Model for Sands (PM4Sand) and Pressure-Dependent-Multi-Yield-02 (PDMY02) model. They were employed to predict behavior of soils with different relative densities and under different confining pressures during monotonic and cyclic loading. PDMY02 was identified as the most suitable model to represent soil seismic behavior for the system studied herein.
The numerical aspects of the finite element approach were investigated to minimize the unintended numerical miscalculations. The focus was put on convergence tolerance, solver time-step, constraint definition, and, integration, material and Rayleigh damping. This resulted in forming a robust numerical configuration for 3-D nonlinear models that were later used for studying behavior of the reinforced grounds.
Nonlinear finite element models were developed to capture the seismic response of columnar reinforced
ground during dynamic centrifuge testing. The models were calibrated with results from tests with unreinforced profiles. Thereafter, they were implemented to predict the response of two reinforced profiles during seismic excitations with different intensities and liquefaction triggering. Model predictions were compared with recordings and the possible effects from the reinforcements were discussed. Finally, parametric studies were performed to further evaluate the efficiency of the reinforcements with different extension depths and area replacement ratios.
The results collectively showed that the stiff elements, if constructed appropriately, can withstand seismic excitations with different intensities, and provide a firm base for overlying structures. However, the presence of the stiff elements within the loose
ground resulted in stronger seismic intensities on the soil surface. The columns were not able to considerably reduce pore water pressure generation, nor prevent liquefaction triggering. The reinforced profiles, comparing to the free-field profiles, had larger settlements on the soil surface but smaller settlements on the columns. The results concluded that utilization of the columnar reinforcements requires great attention as these reinforcements may result in larger seismic intensities at the
ground surface, while not considerably reducing the
ground deformations.

▼ In this dissertation, I use space-based geodetic data to study the ground deformation caused by the earthquake cycle processes. Chapter 1 is an introduction to the data I used and the motivation on each of the following chapters. Chapter 2 focuses on investigating a controversial problem brought up by several co-seismic inversions using geodetic data, which is called the shallow slip deficit. I explored whether this problem is largely an artifact of inversion due to incomplete data and refined the magnitude of this deficit. Chapter 3, following Chapter 2 develops a new data-driven spectral expansion approach for co-seismic slip inversion using geodetic data. Compared to traditional method, it isolates the unstable part of the model and only solves for the well-determined part. Meanwhile we also developed a 1-D thermal model to understand the different down-dip rupture limits of continental-continental and continental-oceanic megathrust events. Chapter 4 aims at understanding the new TOPS mode data from Sentinel-1 satellites and fully testing the capability of this dataset. A subsidence of about 160 mm/yr at the Cerro Prieto Geothermal Field is recovered together with a 40 mm/yr tectonic fault parallel motion at the nearby region. Chapter 5 further develops the processing algorithm used in Chapter 4 and uses Sentinel-1 data to reveal both tectonic and anthropogenic deformation along the San Andreas Fault System.

▼ Liquefaction-induced deformations during earthquake
pose considerable risks to lifeline systems in urban areas.
Empirical models, benefiting from case histories, are preferable
for regionally assessing those deformations. Case histories of
liquefaction grow rapidly and require new information technologies
in data management. Based on pure regression analysis, those
existing empirical models explain little physical mechanism. The
objectives of this research are to improve data management of
liquefaction-related case histories, and to develop the new
generation of models that corroborate physical mechanism of
liquefaction-induced lateral
ground deformations. This goal is
approached in four major steps.; The first step provides guidelines
on gathering perishable information and automating Web reports of
Post-Earthquake Reconnaissance (PER). Embedded metadata formats are
applied to an example of the 2008 Wenchuan, China earthquake when
documenting PER data. This application identifies the potential of
inline metadata formats in establishing the Virtual Earthquake, a
global-wide information system for archiving and sharing PER data
in a spatial context.; The second step presents a new information
system useful for distributing case histories of
liquefaction-induced
ground deformations over the Word Wide Web.
Benefiting from AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML), and
database technologies, this system is an interactive and
lightweight application supported by external data from multiple
data vendors.; The third step scrutinizes existing empirical models
using a subset of case histories that are gathered and managed in
the previous steps. This case study develops maps of liquefaction
severity and liquefaction-induced lateral deformations from those
existing models. The disagreement between the simulation results
and the field observations infers a knowledge insufficiency in the
regional evaluation of liquefaction-induced lateral
ground
deformations and therefore raises a demand for the next generation
of models.; The fourth step is towards a new model that
corroborates physical mechanism of liquefaction-induced
deformations. Using a physical model and probabilistic analysis,
PGV (Peak
Ground Velocity) is demonstrated to be a significant
parameter that characterizes earthquake contributions to the
motions of mass that temporarily loses shear strength due to
liquefaction. A PGV-dependent model is derived based on case
histories to account for the importance of PGV for
liquefaction-induced lateral
ground deformations.

▼ In historical, large-magnitude earthquakes, lateral spreading has been a very damaging type of
ground failure. When a subsurface soil deposit liquefies, intact blocks of surficial soil can move downslope, or toward a vertical free face, even when the
ground surface is nearly level. A lateral spread is defined as the mostly horizontal movement of gently sloping
ground (less than 5% surface slope) due to elevated pore pressures or liquefaction in undelying, saturated soils. Here, lateral spreading is defined specifically to exclude liquefaction failures of steeper embankments and retaining walls, which can also produce lateral surface deformations. Lateral spreads commonly occur at waterfront sites underlain by saturated, recent sediments and are particularly threatening to buried utilities and transportation networks. While the occurrence of soil liquefaction and lateral spreading can be predicted at a given site, methods are needed to estimate the magnitude of the resulting deformations.
In this research effort, an empirical model was developed for predicting horizontal and vertical surface displacements due to liquefaction-induced lateral spreading. The resulting model is called "EPOLLS" for Empirical Prediction Of Liquefaction-induced Lateral Spreading. Multiple linear regression analyses were used to develop model equations from a compiled database of historical lateral spreads. The complete EPOLLS model is comprised of four components: (1) Regional-EPOLLS for predicting horizontal displacements based on the seismic source and local severity of shaking, (2) Site-EPOLLS for improved predictions with the addition of data on the site topography, (3) Geotechnical-EPOLLS using additional data from soil borings at the site, and (4) Vertical-EPOLLS for predicting vertical displacements. The EPOLLS model is useful in phased liquefaction risk studies: starting with regional risk assessments and minimal site information, more precise predictions of displacements can be made with the addition of detailed site-specific data. In each component of the EPOLLS model, equations are given for predicting the average and standard deviation of displacements. Maximum displacements can be estimated using probabilities and the gamma distribution for horizontal displacements or the normal distribution for vertical displacements.

▼ Precise measurements of
ground deformation across the plate boundaries are crucial observations to evaluate the location of strain localization and to understand the pattern of strain accumulation at depth. Such information can be used to evaluate the possible location and magnitude of future earthquakes. Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) potentially can deliver small-scale (few mm/yr)
ground displacement over long distances (hundreds of kilometers) across the plate boundaries and over continents. However, Given the
ground displacement as our signal of interest, the InSAR observations of
ground deformation are usually affected by several sources of systematic and random noises. In this dissertation I identify several sources of systematic and random noise, develop new methods to model and mitigate the systematic noise and to evaluate the uncertainty of the
ground displacement measured with InSAR. I use the developed approach to characterize the tectonic
deformation and evaluate the rate of strain accumulation along the Chaman fault system, the western boundary of the India with Eurasia tectonic plates. I evaluate the bias due to the topographic residuals in the InSAR range-change time-series and develope a new method to estimate the topographic residuals and mitigate the effect from the InSAR range-change time-series (Chapter 2). I develop a new method to evaluate the uncertainty of the InSAR velocity field due to the uncertainty of the satellite orbits (Chapter 3) and a new algorithm to automatically detect and correct the phase unwrapping errors in a dense network of interferograms (Chapter 4). I develop a new approach to evaluate the impact of systematic and stochastic components of the tropospheric delay on the InSAR displacement time-series and its uncertainty (Chapter 5). Using the new InSAR time-series approach developed in the previous chapters, I study the tectonic
deformation across the western boundary of the India plate with Eurasia and evaluated the rate of strain accumulation along the Chaman fault system (Chapter 5). I also evaluate the co-seismic and post-seismic displacement of a moderate M5.5 earthquake on the Ghazaband fault (Chapter 6). The developed methods to mitigate the systematic noise from InSAR time-series, significantly improve the accuracy of the InSAR displacement time-series and velocity. The approaches to evaluate the effect of the stochastic components of noise in InSAR displacement time-series enable us to obtain the variance-covariance matrix of the InSAR displacement time-series and to express their uncertainties. The effect of the topographic residuals in the InSAR range-change time-series is proportional to the perpendicular baseline history of the set of SAR acquisitions. The proposed method for topographic residual correction, efficiently corrects the displacement time-series. Evaluation of the uncertainty of velocity due to the orbital errors shows that for modern SAR satellites with precise orbits such as TerraSAR-X and Sentinel-1, the uncertainty of 0.2…

▼ L'activité des volcans andésitiques, tels que le Mont St Helens (États-Unis), Montserrat (Antilles) ou encore le Merapi (Indonésie), alterne entre des périodes relativement calmes, avec coulées de lave et formation d'un dôme, et des événements explosifs parfois très violents. Prévoir les transitions entre ces deux régimes est essentiel pour assurer la sécurité des populations voisines, mais demeure actuellement un vrai défi. Or les données expérimentales et les observations de terrain montrent que l'explosivité du magma est étroitement liée à son contenu en gaz. L'objectif de cette thèse est d'améliorer notre compréhension de l'évolution de ce contenu en gaz et de son influence sur l'activité volcanique, en nous appuyant sur des simulations numériques, l'analyse de données expérimentales ainsi que sur l'interprétation de données de déformation enregistrées au Merapi.Une part importante de ce travail réside dans le développement et l'amélioration de modèles d'écoulement en 2D pour prendre en compte le dégazage dans la partie supérieure du conduit, en régime transitoire. Nous présentons un modèle d'écoulement du gaz en temps qui tient compte des pertes en gaz aux bords du conduit et à sa sortie, selon les conditions présentes dans la roche encaissante et le dôme. Nous proposons également une adaptation des modèles de conduit permettant de coupler complètement l'écoulement du gaz avec celui du magma pour étudier l'évolution des conditions dans le conduit en régime transitoire. À partir de simulations de l'évolution du dégazage lors de l'emplacement d'un dôme, nous identifions les para-mètres contrôlant les pertes en gaz. Nos résultats montrent que ces pertes sont extrêmement sensibles à l'évolution de la perméabilité du magma et des gradients de pression autour du conduit en réponse au poids du dôme. La perméabilité du dôme a quant à elle peu d'influence. Au cours de la croissance du dôme, les pertes en gaz diminuent en profondeur. En haut du conduit, la pression du gaz augmente de quelques dizaines de MPa. Ces effets sont associés à une augmentation de l'explosivité du magma et de l'aléa volcanique en cas d'effondrement du dôme.Bien que la perméabilité du magma exerce un fort contrôle sur la perte de gaz, comme l'ont montré nos résultats, son évolution dans le conduit est peu contrainte. Les lois de perméabilité utilisées actuellement ne sont pas en accord avec l'ensemble des mesures réalisées sur des échantillons de magmas riches en silice. Dans le but d'améliorer notre compréhension du développement de la perméabilité dans le conduit, nous avons cherché à éclaircir le lien entre perméabilité, conditions d'écoulements, et caractéristiques géométriques du réseau de bulles connectées. Nous proposons une formulation du seuil de percolation, moment exact où le magma devient perméable compatible avec un grand nombre d'échantillons naturels et expérimentaux. Nous présentons aussi une nouvelle loi de perméabilité en accord avec la plupart des observations existantes, que nous avons intégrée à notre modèle 2D de dégazage. Nos…

▼ Development in urban areas around the world has steadily increased in recent years. This rapid development has not been matched by the ever decreasing open space commonly associated with urban centers. Vertical construction, thus, lends itself a very useful solution to this problem. Deep excavation is often required for urban construction. Unfortunately, the ground movements associated with deep excavation can result in damage to adjacent buildings. Thus, it is critically important to accurately predict the damage potential of nearby deep excavations and designing adequate support systems.
A new design method is proposed, as an attempt, to address the problem. The method is semi-empirical and directly links excavation-induced distortions experienced by nearby buildings and the components of the excavation support system. Unlike, the traditional limit equilibrium approach, the method is driven by the distortions in adjacent buildings. It goes further to propose a preliminary cost chart to help designers during the design phase. The benefit is that initial cost is known real time and will help speed up making business decisions. A new design flowchart is proposed to guide the designer through a step-by-step procedure.
The method is validated using 2D Plaxis (the finite element program) simulation. Though the nature of deep excavation is three-dimensional, a plane strain condition is valid when the length of the excavation is long. Hence, two-dimensional finite element simulation was considered appropriate for this effort. Five hypothetical cases were compared and the model performed very well. The lack of available literature on this approach made verification difficult. It is hoped that future case histories will be used to ascertain the veracity of the deformation-based design method.

▼ Prediction and control methodologies for
ground deformation due to underground mining
(commonly referred to as mine subsidence) provide engineers with the means to minimize
negative effects on the surface. Due to the complexity of subsidence-related movements,
numerous techniques exist for predicting mine subsidence behavior. This thesis focuses on the
development, implementation, and validation of numerous enhanced subsidence prediction
methodologies. To facilitate implementation and validation, the improved methodologies have
been incorporated into the Surface
Deformation Prediction System (SDPS), a computer program
based primarily on the influence function method for subsidence prediction. The methodologies
include dynamic subsidence prediction, alternative model calibration capability, and enhanced risk-based damage assessment. Also, the influence function method is further validated using measured case study data. In addition to discussion of previous research for each of the
enhanced methodologies, a significant amount of background information on subsidence and
subsidence-related topics is provided. The results of the research presented in this thesis are expected to benefit the mining industry, as well as initiate ideas for future research.

▼ Glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP) pipe is a light weight alternative to steel pipe for oil and gas distribution pipelines that is corrosion resistant but whose material properties vary based on production technique and whose failure mechanisms are not well understood. These pipelines may cross through unstable terrain and be subject to flexural bending caused by ground motion causing split and leakage of their contents into the environment. This study examines the response of GFRP pipe to permanent ground deformation and the failure mechanisms exhibited by GFRP material. A series of full-scale tests were performed using the Split Box at the Queen’s University GeoEngineering Laboratory, a facility that can simulate a normal ground fault to mimic permanent ground deformation. Three 5.6 m long GFRP pipe segments were pressurized to zero, 300, and 1000 kPa respectively and subject to 120 mm of differential settlement, causing longitudinal bending at the crown and invert near the fault line. Fibre optic sensors installed longitudinally along the length of the buried samples reveal zones of peak strain and curvature. These zones located on either side of the fault line are shown to be asymmetrical with higher strains recorded on the stationary side of the fault line. The position and magnitude of peak curvature zones changed with increased pressure, shifting further away from the fault line with decreased curvature. The samples did not reach an ultimate limit state, however at 110 mm fault offset the buried pipe wall split resulting in water leaking at the peak curvature zones and pressure loss. Three four-point bending tests were also performed on similar pipe segments 1.8 m long. The flexural tests were used to establish a relationship between curvature and moment for the GFRP pipe which was then used to estimate the lengthwise moment distribution of the buried samples. Comparisons were also made to the flexural responses of the buried pipe.

▼ Les techniques d'interférométrie sur réflecteurs persistants, ou points stables (PSI), sont des outils particulièrement efficaces pour le suivi des déformations du sol et offrent les avantages typiques des systèmes de télédétection radar à synthèse d'ouverture (RSO) : une large couverture spatiale combinée à une résolution relativement élevée. Ces techniques sont basées sur l'analyse d'un jeu d'images RSO acquises sur une zone donnée. Elles permettent de régler le problème de décorrélation grâce à l'identification d'éléments particuliers (au sein de la cellule de résolution) dont la rétrodiffusion radar est de haute qualité et stable sur toute une série d'interférogrammes. Ces techniques sont fort efficaces (utiles ?) pour l'analyse de zones urbaines où les constructions constituent de bons réflecteurs avec une réflexion supérieure à celle du sol ; il en va de même pour des zones de campagne où la densité d'infrastructures est plus limitée. La technique PSI requiert un modèle temporel approximatif a priori pour la détection des déformations, bien que la caractérisation de l'évolution temporelle de la déformation soit communément l'un des objectifs des études. Le travail réalisé porte sur une technique PSI particulière, appelée Stable Point Network (SPN), Réseau de Points Stables, qui a été totalement développée par Altamira Information en 2003. Le travail présente de manière concise les caractéristiques de la technique et décrit les principaux produits générés : carte moyenne de déformation, séries temporelles de déformation des points mesurés, et les cartes de résidu d'erreur topographique utilisées pour géocoder de façon précise les produits PSI. Le principal objectif de cette thèse est l'identification et l'analyse des points faibles de la chaîne de traitement SPN et le développement de nouveaux outils et méthodologies pour résoudre les problèmes identifiés. Dans un premier temps, les performances de la technique SPN sont examinées et illustrées sur des cas pratiques (basés sur des sites test réels et à partir de données provenant de différents capteurs) et à l'aide de simulations. Les principaux points faibles de la technique sont identifiés et commentés, notamment le manque de paramètres automatiques de contrôle qualité, l'évaluation de la qualité des données d'entrée, la sélection de bons points pour la mesure ainsi que l'utilisation d'un modèle fonctionnel pour le déroulement de phase (franges interferometriques) basé sur une tendance linéaire de la déformation dans le temps. Différentes solutions sont ensuite envisagées. Nous nous intéressons tout particulièrement au contrôle qualité automatique dans la procédure de coregistration, en utilisant l'analyse du positionnement inter-pixel de certains points naturels, comme par exemple des pixels identifiés dans les images. L'amélioration de la sélection finale des points de mesure (carte PSI) s'obtient grâce à l'analyse de la signature du signal radar des cibles les plus puissantes présentes au sein de l'image, afin de sélectionner uniquement le centre du lobe…

▼ For the past two decades, interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) has been used to monitor
ground deformation with subcentimetric precision from space. But the applicability of this technique is limited in regions with a low density of naturally-occurring phase-coherent radar targets, e.g. vegetated nonurbanized areas. Third-party end-users of InSAR survey results cannot, in a systematic way, determine a priori whether these coherent targets have adequate spatial distribution to estimate the parameters of their interest. Additionally, InSAR
deformation estimates are referred to a local datum, meaning that the technique is sensitive only to the relative
deformation occurring within the SAR images. This makes it difficult to compare these estimates with those from other techniques, e.g. historical levelling data or changes in the sea level. Here we propose the design of a geodetic network for InSAR, aimed at densifying the naturally-occurring measurement network and converting from a local datum to a global one. A practical solution for improving spatial sampling is to deploy coherent target devices such as corner reflectors or transponders on
ground, tailored to the specific monitoring application under consideration. The proposed method (1) provides a generic description of any
deformation phenomenon; (2) determines whether the naturally-occurring InSAR measurements are adequate in terms of user-defined criteria; (3) finds the minimum number of additional devices to be deployed (if required); and (4) finds their optimal
ground locations. It digests, as inputs, any prior knowledge of the
deformation signal, the expected locations and quality of the existing coherent targets, and the quality of the deployed devices. The method is based on comparing different covariance matrices of the final parameters of interest with a criterion matrix (i.e., the ideal desired covariance matrix) using a predefined metric. The resulting measurement network is optimized with respect to precision, reliability and economic criteria; this is demonstrated via synthetic examples and a case of subsidence in the Netherlands. As a basis for the choice and number of deployed devices, we evaluate the measurement precision of compact active transponders and demonstrate their viability as alternatives to passive corner reflectors through three field experiments, using different satellite data and geodetic validation techniques. Transponders are shown to be usable for subcentimetre-precision geodetic applications, while improving upon the drawbacks of corner reflectors in terms of size, shape, weight and conspicuousness. For transforming the spatially-relative InSAR
deformation estimates (local datum) to a standard terrestrial reference frame (global datum), we introduce a new concept involving the collocation of transponders with Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) measurements. The displacement of such a transponder is consequently determined in the standard reference frame used by GNSS, eliminating the need for any assumptions on…

▼ Η δημιουργία του Ελληνικού Ηφαιστειακού Τόξου (ΕΗΤ) στο Νότιο Αιγαίο, το οποίο
εκτείνεται από την Κρομμυωνία, τα Μέθανα, την Αίγινα και τον Πόρο στα δυτικά, την
Μήλο και Σαντορίνη στα κεντρικά και την Νίσυρο και Δυτική Κω στα ανατολικά,
χρονολογείται στο τέλος του Κατώτερου Πλειόκαινου, και εντάσσεται στα πλαίσια του
ευρύτερου σχηματισμού του Ελληνικού Ορογενετικού Συστήματος, το οποίο αποτελεί την
πιο σημαντική ενεργή γεωλογική δομή της Μεσογείου. Τα τρία επί μέρους τμήματα του
ΕΗΤ που εξετάζονται στην παρούσα διατριβή, ήτοι το Δυτικό τμήμα με τα ηφαιστειακά
κέντρα των Μεθάνων και Αίγινας, το Κεντρικό τμήμα με την Μήλο και Σαντορίνη, και
τέλος το Ανατολικό τμήμα με την ευρύτερη περιοχή της Κω-Νισύρου, αποκαλύπτουν
διαφορετικά χαρακτηριστικά ηφαιστείων, έχουν αναπτύξει στο παρελθόν διαφορετικούς
ηφαιστειακούς μηχανισμούς, παρουσιάζουν διαφορετική τρέχουσα δράση και επομένως
χαρακτηρίζονται από διαφορετική ηφαιστειακή επικινδυνότητα. Τα ηφαιστειακά κέντρα
των Μεθάνων, της Σαντορίνης και της Νισύρου κατέγραψαν ιστορικές εκρήξεις και
θεωρούνται προσωρινώς αδρανή. Ωστόσο, η τελευταία ηφαιστειακή δράση στην
Σαντορίνη κατεγράφη το 1950, ενώ η Νίσυρος επέδειξε έντονη ατμιδική δραστηριότητα
και φρεατικές εκρήξεις έως το τέλος του 19ου αιώνα.
Κύριο σκοπό στην παρούσα έρευνα αποτέλεσε η εκτίμηση της Ηφαιστειακής
Επικινδυνότητας του ΕΗΤ, η οποία βασίσθηκε σε ένα μακροπρόθεσμο πρόγραμμα
παρακολούθησης των ηφαιστειακών κέντρων. Η ολοκληρωμένη εκτίμηση της
Ηφαιστειακής Επικινδυνότητας οφείλει να περιέχει πληροφορίες, τόσο για την εκρηκτική
συμπεριφορά που επέδειξαν τα ηφαιστειακά κέντρα στο παρελθόν, όσο και για την τωρινή
τους συμπεριφορά, μέσω της παρακολούθησης των πρόδρομων φαινομένων. Βασιζόμενοι
στα ανωτέρω, και λαμβάνοντας υπ’ όψιν παραμέτρους που αφορούν και τις δύο
κατηγορίες, ανεπτύχθη μία μεθοδολογία βαθμονόμησης της Ηφαιστειακής
Επικινδυνότητας συστηματική για όλο το ΕΗΤ. Μία τέτοια εργασία δύναται να συμβάλει ως
βάση για τον σχεδιασμό ενός συστήματος έγκαιρης προειδοποίησης. Για την υλοποίηση
της βαθμονόμησης διακρίθηκαν δύο κατηγορίες επικινδυνότητας, της Ιστορικής
Εκρηκτικότητας και της Σημερινής Ηφαιστειακής Δραστηριότητας, όπου σε κάθε κριτήριο

κάθε κατηγορίας, εδόθη μία συγκεκριμένη βαθμολογία (αναλυτική περιγραφή δίνεται
εκτενώς στο κείμενο). Με τον συνδυασμό των δύο κατηγοριών επετεύχθη η τελική
βαθμονόμηση της Ηφαιστειακής Επικινδυνότητας, η οποία ουσιαστικά εκφράζει ποσοτικά
τον σχετικό βαθμό επικινδυνότητας των επί μέρους ηφαιστειακών κέντρων.

▼ Knowledge of fracture orientation and density is significant for reservoir and aquifer characterization. In this study, field experiments are designed to estimate fracture parameters in situ from seismic and GPR (radar) data. The seismic experiment estimates parameters of orientation, density, and filling material. The GPR experiment estimates channel flow geometry and aperture. In the seismic study, lines of 2D data are acquired in a vertically fractured limestone at three different azimuths to look for differences in seismic velocities. A sledgehammer, vertical source and a multicomponent, Vibroseis source are used with multicomponent receivers. Acquisition parameters of frequency, receiver spacing and source-to-receiver offset are varied. The entire suite of seismic body waves and Rayleigh waves is analyzed to characterize the subsurface. Alford rotations are used to determine fracture orientation and demonstrate good results when geophone orientation is taken into account. Results indicate that seismic anisotropy is caused by regional faulting. Average fracture density of less than 5% and water table depth estimates are consistent with field observations. Groundwater flow direction has been observed by others to cross the fault trend and is subparallel to a secondary fracture set. In this study, seismic anisotropy appears unrelated to this secondary fracture set. Vp/Vs and Poisson's ratio values indicate a dolomite lithology. Sledgehammer and Vibroseis data provide consistent results. In the GPR experiment, reflection profiles are acquired through common-offset profiling perpendicular to the dominant flow direction. High frequency waves are used to delineate fluid flow paths through a subhorizontal fracture and observe tracer channeling. Channeling of flow is expected to control solute transport. Changes in radar signal are quantitatively associated with changes in fracture filling material from an innovative method using correlation coefficients. Mapping these changes throughout the survey area reveals the geometry of the flow path of each injected liquid. The tracer is found to be concentrated in the center of the survey area where fracture apertures are large. This demonstrates that spatial variations in concentration are controlled by fluid channel geometry.

▼ Abstract
This PhD thesis is composed of a synopsis and five published papers that are focused on both the research results of studies on electrical properties of road materials and subgrade soils and their seasonal changes and the use of Ground Penetrating Radar technique in traffic infrastructure surveys. The data for this survey was collected mainly in Finland, Texas, Scotland and Sweden and thus presents many kinds of road materials, subgrade soils and climate conditions.
The synopsis of this work begins with a presentation of the theory and basic principles of GPR techniques. Special attention is given to the dielectric properties and seasonal changes of unbound road materials and subgrade soils. The synopsis also presents different kinds of GPR hardware systems as well as recommendations and experiences from different data collection, processing and interpretation techniques. Special attention is given to a method whereby GPR data is integrated with other road survey data and then analysed using a number of structural diagnostic methods. Finally, the synopsis provides an overview of of the various GPR applications on roads and streets, bridges, railways and airports.
The laboratory test results presented in this work show that the relationship between dielectric value and increasing water content is not linear or exponential but more likely a series of logarithmic functions. Laboratory results also showed that dielectric dispersion, which can be related to poorly performing subgrade soils and road aggregates, takes place mainly in loosely bound adsorption water and capillary water layer. As such these moisture sensitive problem materials can also be identified during the dry summer seasons when they are stiff. Dielectric value and electrical conductivity can also be related to other technical properties of road materials and subgrade soils such as frost susceptibility, shear strength, plastic limit, compaction degree and voids content. Laboratory tests and field data collected using the Percostation technique also demonstrate that a knowledge of seasonal changes and thermodynamics is very important in understanding and modelling the mechanical behaviour of road structures. Finally, laboratory and field tests indicate that colloids have an important role in the failure mechanism of the road materials.
This research demonstrates that the GPR technique not only gives valuable structural information on the different types of structures and subgrade soils but it provides a wide range of information of the electrical properties of the materials under survey which can be further related to their mechanical performance. The best information will be gained if GPR data is analysed together with other non destructive testing data collected form the roads, railways and airports.

▼ This thesis addresses the performance of ductile iron (DI) pipelines with restrained axial slip joints
subject to earthquake-induced
ground deformation. DI pipelines account for 23% of U.S. water distribution systems (US.EPA, 2013), and have been used extensively for replacing aging cast iron (CI) pipelines. Under earthquake-induced
ground deformation a jointed DI pipeline is vulnerable primarily to joint pullout and excessive joint rotation. Improvements in pipeline technology have led to the development of DI pipelines with restrained axial slip joints that move axially and rotate to conform to differential soil movements, but are restrained from pullout without leakage and loss of structural integrity. A series of large-scale experiments was performed on DI pipelines with restrained axial slip joints to characterize tensile strength properties, direct axial compression and tension, moment vs rotation characteristics, soil axial restraint, and performance in response to fault rupture. Large-scale tests were performed primarily on 6-in. (150-mm)-diameter DI pipelines, but also included direct tension and bending tests on 12-in. (300-mm)-diameter DI pipelines. The direct compression tests show either leakage or irrecoverable
deformation in the form of large rotation at loads equal to or slightly higher than load consistent with the proportional limit stress of DI pipe. The direct tension tests show that tensile failure of the pipeline depends on the locking mechanism of the joint. Joints that use full circumferential locking rings generate the highest resisting force. Failure and leakage under tension with these features occurred as DI ring shear fracture and bell fracture. In contrast, joints that use locking segments mobilized lower pullout force. Failure and leakage of joints with locking segments occurred as local
deformation at the spigot caused by load concentration at the locking segments, allowing the weld bead to slip past the locking segments and cause leakage. Large-scale fault rupture tests provide a comprehensive and detailed understanding of the sequence of joint movements, combined axial pullout and rotation at each joint, and the actual axial forces influenced by longitudinal frictional resistance and axial resistance to movement at the joints. The longitudinal frictional forces are controlled by at-rest (Ko) conditions, which set the initial state of stress along the pipeline near the north and south ends of the split basin, and the conditions of maximum lateral soil reaction during fault rupture, which establish the maximum longitudinal frictional resistance for the pipeline in the vicinity of fault rupture. The joint axial resistance model proposed in this work is obtained from the expression for face resistance of the leading edge of a jacked pipe proposed by Meskele and Stuedlein (2015) from the work of Weber and Hurtz (1981). The model is used to predict the axial resistance from a restrained axial slip joint for DI pipe and the pullout restraints of PVCO and PVC pipelines. The…

▼ Στην παρούσα διδακτορική διατριβή μελετήθηκε η τεκτονική συμπεριφορά των νήσων Κεφαλληνίας και Ζακύνθου με την συνδυαστική χρήση Διαστημικών Τεχνικών και Σεισμολογικής Έρευνας. Η χρήση των διαστημικών εφαρμογών επικεντρώθηκε σε Διαφορικές μετρήσεις GPS για σημιειακή αλλά μεγάλης ακρίβειας (2-6 mm) παρατηρήσεις, σε συνδυασμό με Διαφορική Συμβολομετρία Ραντάρ για χωρική μελέτη της παραμόρφωσης. Επιπροσθέτως, η Σεισμολογική Έρευνα, με την χρήση μεθόδων υπολογισμού συνθετικών κυμάτων χώρου (P, SH και SV), συνέβαλε στον προσδιορισμό των σεισμικών παραμέτρων των ισχυρών σεισμών, ενώ η μικροσεισμική μελέτη βοήθησε στην ταύτιση των σεισμικών πηγών με τις ενεργές τεκτονικές ζώνες παραμόρφωσης της περιοχής. Τα αποτελέσματα της σεισμολογικής μελέτης συσχετίστηκαν και συνεκτιμήθηκαν με την μετρούμενη εδαφική παραμόρφωση από την χρήση των Διαστημικών Τεχνικών και η συνδυαστική τους αξιολόγηση οδήγησε σε ερμηνεία της εικόνας της παραμόρφωσης. Οι μετρήσεις GPS στην Κεφαλληνία πραγματοποιήθηκαν κατά την διάρκεια πέντε περιόδων, ενώ αυτές στη Ζάκυνθο υλοποιήθηκαν κατά τη διάρκεια δύο περιόδων. Για την Κεφαλληνία τα αποτελέσματα των μετρήσεων GPS από το 2001-2006 ανέδειξαν ανύσματα οριζόντιας μετατόπισης από 5-35mm ± 2mm. Από τις διευθύνσεις τους είναι φανερή η δεξιόστροφη περιστροφή της Κεφαλληνίας γύρω από έναν άξονα που διέρχεται από το σημείο 06, με τιμή 12,7 ± 5,5/Mgr. Αναφορικά με το κατακόρυφο άνυσμα, αξιοσημείωτη είναι η αλλαγή της φοράς της κίνησης από τον Σεπτέμβριο 2003 η οποία εκδηλώνεται πλέον με έντονη ανύψωση του δυτικού και νότιου τμήματος με μέγεθος έως και 60mm. Ως πιθανή ερμηνεία της ανύψωσης προσδόθηκε η έννοια της διασταλτικότητας. Αναφορικά με τη Ζάκυνθο, αναδείχθηκε συστηματικότητα στις διευθύνσεις των οριζόντιων ανυσμάτων στο νότιο τμήμα, όπου παρατηρήθηκε διεύρυνση του Κόλπου Λαγανά της τάξεως των 24mm στη διεύθυνση Α-Δ. Ταυτόχρονα το τμήμα αυτό της νήσου παρουσίασε έντονη ανύψωση (έως 70mm). Η εικόνα αυτή της εδαφικής ανύψωσης δύναται να αποδοθεί στη δράση της σεισμικής ακολουθίας Απριλίου 2006 σε μικρή απόσταση από τις νότιες ακτές της Ζακύνθου, η οποία προκλήθηκε από τη δράση δύο ανάστροφων αντιθετικών ρηγμάτων με διευθύνσεις ΒΒΔ-ΝΝΑ και ΒΔ-ΝΑ με κλίσεις ΝΔ και ΒΑ αντίστοιχα, τα οποία ανύψωσαν τον χώρο γύρω από τον Κόλπο Λαγανά.

▼ Flapping-wing micro air-vehicles are being investigated for their potential to provide enhanced aerodynamic efficiency, maneuverability and gust tolerance. The flight dynamics of flapping-wing micro air-vehicles result from a complicated relationship between aerodynamics and structural dynamics. This relationship has both frequency-domain aspects and time-domain aspects that are each critical. As such, analyzing data from a flapping wing requires techniques that can process information related to both of these domains. This thesis introduces wavelet analysis as a tool to determine the frequency content of time-varying signals from a flapping wing testbed. Wavelet maps present a time-frequency domain representation that relates both time-domain and frequency-domain aspects. Data obtained with digital image correlation, including deflections and deformations while flapping and displacements under shaker excitation, is analyzed using wavelet processing from a set of wings with different structural dynamics and different flapping parameters. The resulting wavelet maps demonstrate the variations in energy content and temporal distribution associated with these signals. This thesis also examines wings of interest with a laser doppler vibrometer to obtain operating deflection shapes and their corresponding frequencies. These shapes and frequencies are compared to the results obtained using digital image correlation. The dynamics of a flapping-wing vehicle are inherently aeroservoelastic since the interaction of aerodynamics and structural dynamics are critical to performance and will be altered by any control effectors. Signals formed from deflections of a flapping wing using digital image correlation may provide a basis for an aeroservoelastic model of the flapping wing. This thesis generates a model of the aeroservoelastic dynamics for a wing as a function of the flapping frequency and flapping amplitude. These models are polynomial functions of each parameter and capture the nonlinear behavior. Most importantly, the resulting models are a basis from which to compute the wing deflections in response to any control command. ( en )
