▼ Deriving statistical inferences based upon small sample has long been a concern of researchers. Resampling as a revolutionary methodology to deal with small-sample problems has been developed rapidly with the growth of modern computer techniques. However, existing resampling methods have inevitable limitations, such as dependent observations and sensitive to outliers. The present dissertation study attempts to reduce the limitations of the existing resampling methods by developing a new resampling method, the sample smoothing amplification resampling technique (S-SMART), to obtain an amplified sample which has large statistical power, conditional independence of observations, robustness to outliers, stable statistical behaviors, and an identical distribution with its small random proto-sample from any distributions. The amplified sample is a union of multiple resamples, each randomly generated from a Gaussian kernel distribution. The mean of each Gaussian kernel distribution is determined by the percentiles whose corresponding percentages equally divide the middle 95% percentage range of the small sample; and the random noise of the Gaussian kernel distribution is determined by the standard error of the original small sample. S-SMART is a robust technique because it includes a smoothing procedure using estimates of the evenly-paced middle 95% percentiles to produce S-SMART samples. Through an evaluative simulation study, this dissertation provides numerical evidence for the reliability and validity of the amplified S-SMART samples. The amplified S-SMART samples were similar to its original small samples in terms of the statistical behaviors and distributions. Thus, it produces unbiased resamples from the original small sample while correcting influence of extreme values. Therefore, the new resampling method has the potential to help researchers improve the quality of research with small samples through increasing statistical power, resisting outlier influences, and making advanced statistical techniques applicable to research with small samples.

▼ Les matériaux semi-conducteurs à large bande interdite sont capables de résister aux environnements difficiles et de fonctionner dans une large plage de températures. Celles-ci sont idéales pour de nombreuses applications telles que les capteurs, la haute puissance et les radiofréquences.Cependant, des matériaux plus nouveaux sont nécessaires pour atteindre une efficacité énergétique significative dans diverses applications ou pour développer de nouvelles applications destinées à compléter les semi-conducteurs à bande interdite tels que le GaN et le SiC.Dans cette thèse, trois méthodes différentes sont utilisées pour étudier l’un de ces nouveauxmatériaux, carbure d'aluminium et de silicium (Al4SiC4): (1) simulations d'ensemble de Monte Carloafin d'étudier les propriétés de transport d'électrons du nouveau carbure ternaire, (2)études expérimentales pour déterminer ses propriétés matérielles et (3) simulations de dispositifsd'un dispositif à hétérostructure rendu possible par ce carbure ternaire.

Les protocoles de traitement du cancer par Radiothérapie Conformationnelle par Modulation d'Intensité (RCMI) ciblent avec une précision de plus en plus grande la tumeur. Pour cela, ils nécessitent des informations anatomiques précises du patient juste avant le traitement, qui peuvent d'être obtenues à l'aide de systèmes d'imagerie embarqués sur l'accélérateur linéaire médical délivrant le faisceau de traitement. Ces systèmes, composés d'un tube à rayons X et d'un détecteur 2D planaire, sont appelés kV-Cone Beam CT (kV-CBCT). Aujourd'hui, leur usage est très fortement répandu dans le cadre des traitements par RCMI. Cependant, ces examens kV-CBCT sont responsables d'une dose de rayonnements ionisants additionnelle qui est loin d'être négligeable et pouvant d'être à l'origine de l'apparition d'effets secondaires, tels que des cancers radio-induits chez les patients traités. Au cours de cette thèse, un simulateur basé sur la méthode de Monte-Carlo a été développé permettant ainsi d'estimer avec précision les doses délivrées aux organes lors des examens d'imagerie kV-CBCT. Cet outil a ensuite été utilisé afin d'étudier différentes stratégies de prise en compte clinique de ces doses additionnelles. L'étude présentée dans ce manuscrit propose notamment une méthode rapide d'estimation des niveaux de doses délivrés aux organes prenant en compte la morphologie de chaque patient. Cette stratégie a été développée à partir d'une cohorte de 50 patients incluant 40 enfants et 10 adultes. Ces travaux ont été réalisés en collaboration avec l'unité de physique médicale du Centre Eugène Marquis à Rennes qui a fourni les données cliniques nécessaires à l'étude.

Protocols for cancer treatment using intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) allow to target the tumor with an increased precision. They require accurate anatomical information of the patient just before the treatment, which can be obtained using on-board imaging systems mounted on the medical linear accelerator delivering the treatment beam. These systems, composed of an X-ray tube and a 2D planar detector, are called kV-Cone Beam CT (kV-CBCT). Nowadays, they are widely used in the context of IMRT treatments. However, these kV-CBCT examinations are also responsible for an additional dose of ionizing radiations which is far to be negligible and could be the cause for secondary effects, such as radiation-induced second cancers for treated patients. During this PhD work, a simulator based on the Monte Carlo method was developed in order to calculate accurately the doses delivered to organs during kV-CBCT examinations. Then, this tool was used to study several strategies to take in account for the imaging additional doses in clinical environment. The study reported here includes, in particular, a fast and personalized method to estimate the doses delivered to organs. This strategy was developed using a cohort of 50 patients including 40 children and 10 adults. This work has been done in collaboration with the medical physics unit of the Eugène Marquis medical center in…

O processo de radioterapia consiste em várias etapas, iniciando na indicação pelo médico. O plano de tratamento passa então por um processo denominado simulação, onde é adquirida uma série de imagens por tomografia computadorizada que são transferidas para o sistema de planejamento, onde a delineação dos volumes alvos e tecidos normais adjacentes serão realizadas. Após a delineação desses volumes, no sistema de planejamento são colocados os campos de irradiação e a dose desejada conforme prescrição médica. O sistema de planejamento calcula então a dose que o volume alvo e os tecidos adjacentes poderão receber. Se estas doses estão dentro dos padrões aceitáveis, o planejamento então é aprovado e enviado ao acelerador linear para a execução do tratamento. Antes da execução do tratamento, é realizada uma imagem, seja através de filme radiográfico ou digitalmente, para avaliar a posição no paciente na mesa de tratamento. Se a localização do paciente está correta, a dose é então liberada. Esse protocolo de aquisição de imagem é denominado como Radioterapia Guiada por Imagem (IGRT). A quantidade de radiografias de posicionamento segue um protocolo definido conforme a região a ser irradiada. Como resultado deste procedimento, sabe-se que uma determinada dose adicional é recebida pelos pacientes, tornando-se um fator importante a ser determinado. Esta avaliação foi realizada através da simulação de Monte Carlo, utilizando o código MCNP. Para isso foi realizada primeiramente toda a caracterização da fonte de raios X com uso de câmaras de ionização e dosimetros TL juntamente com as simulações no MCNP. Após essa caracterização, as imagens e as estruturas do planejamento radioterápico foram convertidas para serem utilizadas no código MCNP. Para que as doses fossem calculadas nos principais órgãos de risco no tratamento de próstata: bexiga, reto e cabeças de fêmur direita e esquerda.

The process of radiotherapy treatment consists of several stages, starting from the statement given by the physician. The treatment planning undergoes a process called simulation, where a series of computed tomography images is acquired and transferred to the treatment planning system, where the delineation of target volumes and adjacent normal tissues will be performed. After the delineation of these volumes, then irradiation fields and dose precribed by the physician are placed in the treatment planning system. It calculates the dose that target volume and surrounding tissues are receiving. If the doses are within acceptable standard values, then the design is approved and submitted to the linear accelerator for the treatment course. Before treatment course, an image is performed, either by radiographic or digital film, in order to evaluate (check) the patient position on the treatment table. If the patient position is correct, the treatment is realized. This image acquisition protocol is called Image-Guided Radiotherapy (IGRT). The amount of radiographic positioning follow a protocol defined for the region to be treated. As a result of this…

O uso de códigos de simulação Monte Carlo em radiologia vem crescendo com o aparecimento de diferentes códigos de simulação, desenvolvidos especificamente para aplicações em radiologia, como, por exemplo, PENELOPE. Cada um desses códigos utiliza diferentes algoritmos para o transporte de partículas resultando em diferentes níveis de dificuldade de uso, acurácia nos resultados e desempenho nas simulações. O código de simulação Monte Carlo PENELOPE utiliza um algoritmo misto de transporte da radiação, definido por meio dos parâmetros de entrada da simulação. Normalmente utilizado para aplicações em feixes de altas energias, a influência desses parâmetros no transporte de partículas com o código PENELOPE ainda não foi completamente estabelecida para aplicações que utilizam feixes de radiodiagnóstico e geometrias delgadas. Especificamente em estudos de características dosimétricas de detectores de radiação que possuem espessuras delgadas, como câmaras de ionização, o tipo de algoritmo de transporte pode influenciar nos resultado das simulações. Neste trabalho, o estudo da influência dos parâmetros que controlam o algoritmo de transporte utilizado pelo código de simulação Monte Carlo PENELOPE em feixes de radiodiagnóstico e geometrias delgadas foi realizado através da simulação dos coeficientes de atenuação linear em diferentes materiais, espessuras e energias. A validação desse código nessa faixa de energia permitiu a determinação do fator de retroespalhamento para feixes polienergéticos, contribuindo para sua aplicação em radiodiagnóstico.

The use of Monte Carlo simulation in radiology has been growing with the appearance of different simulation codes that have been developed specifically for applications in radiology, as for example PENELOPE. Each of these codes use different algorithms for particle transport resulting in different levels of difficulty for its use as well as of accuracy and performance. The PENELOPE code uses a mixed algorithm for radiation transport that is defined by entrance parameters. Most of the applications of PENELOPE code have been performed with high energy beams, however the influence of the entrance parameters in the particle transport is not established for applications evolving radiodiagnostic beams and thin geometries. Specifically for the study of dosimetric characteristics of radiation detectors that have small thicknesses, as ionization chambers, the algorithm transport influences the results of the simulation. In this work, the study of the influence of entrance parameters on the transport algorithm used in PENELOPE Monte Carlo simulation code was performed by the simulation of the linear attenuation coefficients in different materials, thickness and energies used in radiodiagnostic. The validation of this code in such energy range allowed the determination of the backscatter factor for polienergetic beams, aiding its application in radiodianogsis.

Η μεσόμορφη κατάσταση είναι μια ενδιάμεση κατάστασή της ύλης μεταξύ στερεής και υγρής φάσης και περιλαμβάνει δύο μεγάλες κατηγορίες, την υγροκρυσταλλική και την περιστροφική φάση, στις οποίες παρατηρούνται ιεραρχημένες δομές υπό συγκεκριμένες συνθήκες. Ανάλογη συμπεριφορά εμφανίζουν και τα ημιφθοριωμένα αλκάνια κατά το σχηματισμό κρυστάλλων σε στοιβάδες (λαμέλες) με μικρή ή μεγάλη τάξη στη μεσοφάση τους τα οποία έχουν μοριακό τύπο CmF2m+1CnH2n+1 και χρησιμοποιούνται κατά κόρον σε βιοϊατρικές εφαρμογές. Ένα από αυτά τα αλκάνια είναι το F(CF2)12(CH2)12H ή αλλιώς F12H12, ένα γραμμικό δισυσταδικό μόριο για το οποίο έχει παρατηρηθεί ότι μεταπίπτει από μία μεσοφάση με δομή διστρωματικής λαμέλας σε μεσοφάση μικρότερης τάξης και δομής μονομοριακής λαμέλας καθώς η θερμοκρασία αυξάνει. Στη παρούσα εργασία, με τον ανασχεδιασμό ενός ατομιστικού αλγορίθμου Monte Carlo (MC) μελετήθηκε η μεσόμορφη κατάσταση του F12H12 και συγκεκριμένα στόχος ήταν η πρόβλεψη της αυτό-οργάνωσης του συστήματος στον κύριο όγκο (bulk system) και στην ενδιάμεση κατάστασή του. Όμως για να καταστεί εφικτή αυτή η μελέτη, ήταν αναγκαία η εύρεση από την διεθνή βιβλιογραφία ενός μοριακού μοντέλου, το οποίο θα μπορούσε να προβλέψει με την καλύτερη δυνατή ακρίβεια τις ιδιότητές του υπό μελέτη συστήματος. Προς την κατεύθυνση αυτή, δοκιμάστηκαν τρία μοριακά μοντέλα με διαφορετικές παραμέτρους αλληλεπίδρασης των ατομιστικών μονάδων του μορίου. Τα αποτελέσματα των προσομοιώσεων Monte Carlo δεν ήταν τα αναμενόμενα, σύμφωνα με τα διαθέσιμα πειραματικά δεδομένα. Η ιδέα της εφαρμογή της μεθόδου μοριακής δυναμικής για τη μελέτη της μεσόμορφης κατάστασης των F12H12 κρίθηκε απαραίτητη για την εξισορρόπηση του συστήματος σε εύλογο χρονικό υπολογιστικό διάστημα, αλλά και για τη χρήση της ως εργαλείο ελέγχου της αξιοπιστίας του αλγορίθμου MC και των μοριακών μοντέλων. Από τα αποτελέσματα προσομοιώσεων MD εξακριβώθηκε η ορθότητα του αλγορίθμου MC και προέκυψε το συμπέρασμα ότι τα εξεταζόμενα μοριακά μοντέλα αδυνατούν να προβλέψουν με ακρίβεια και επιτυχία τα πειραματικά δεδομένα, καθώς τουλάχιστον τα δύο από αυτά εντοπίζουν τη μετάβαση φάσης από την ισοτροπική στην μεσόμορφη κατάσταση μικρότερης τάξης σε διαφορετικές συνθήκες (μικρότερη θερμοκρασία, μεγαλύτερη πυκνότητα) από αυτές των πειραματικά μετρούμενων. Σε αυτές τις συνθήκες εφαρμόστηκε και η μέθοδος προσομοίωσης Monte Carlo η οποία δεν είχε την δυνατότητα να εξισορροπήσει το υπό μελέτη σύστημα σε μικρές θερμοκρασίες και να προβλέψει την μετάβαση φάσης. Σε κάθε περίπτωση θα ήταν εξαιρετικά ενδιαφέρουσα η περαιτέρω μελέτη του συστήματος F12H12.

The evolution of interventional radiology has designated as an alternative option that replaces open surgery. The main disadvantage of interventional radiology practices is the usage of ionizing radiation, in order to visualize the region of interest, resulting in the necessity of optimization in the practices to reduce the potential risk as the absorbed dose can be significantly higher than normal radiographic examinations. Percutaneous transhepatic billiary drainage – PTBD, chemoembolizations, diagnostic subtracted angiography (DSA) of abdominal aorta to lower libs are interventional practices that the patients’ radiation burden is in high levels. The main purpose of this thesis is the dosimetric study of the above referred interventional procedures. The used dosimetric parameters were DAP, equivalent organ doses HT, effective dose E, organ dose and effective dose conversion factors and the risk of exposure-induced cancer death (REID). Doses and conversion factors were calculated simulating the interventional procedures with Monte Carlo codes. The used Monte Carlo codes were MCNP5 and PCXMC2.0. There were used two codes in order to increase the accuracy of the calculations.The mean DAP values of the male (n=20) and female (n=23) group that underwent in PTC were 4500±2600 και 5500±3300 cGycm2, respectively. The effective dose conversion factors were 1,1 10-3 and 1,2 10-3 for both group calculated with MCNP5 and PCXMC2.0 codes, respectively. The mean calculated REID% values were 0,015±0,013 και 0,022±0,016, for the group of males and female, respectively. The mean DAP of the group underwent in chemoembolization (n=32) was 8360 ± 5530 cGycm2, the mean calculated REID% value was 0,052±0,036 and the effective dose conversion factors were ήταν 1,4 10-2 και 1,6 10-2 calculated with MCNP5 and PCXMC2.0 codes, respectively. The mean DAP of the group underwent in DSA (n=30) was 5075.1±2420.4 cGy cm2, the mean calculated REID% was 0,016±0,0067 and the effective dose conversion factors were ήταν 5,1 10-4 και 5,7 10-4 calculated with MCNP5 and PCXMC2.0 codes, respectively.The dosimetric study of complex interventional procedures contributes to characterization of the radial risk and optimization of the used techniques since the radiation burden is higher than the classic radiographic examinations.

Η εξέλιξη της επεμβατικής ακτινολογίας τα τελευταία χρόνια την έχει αναδείξει σε εναλλακτική επιλογή που αντικαθιστά το ανοιχτό χειρουργείο. Το κύριο μειονέκτημα των πρακτικών της επεμβατικής ακτινολογίας είναι η χρήση ιονίζουσας ακτινοβολίας για τη λήψη εικόνων της περιοχής ενδιαφέροντος, με αποτέλεσμα την ανάγκη βελτιστοποίησης της πρακτικής για τον περιορισμό του δυνητικού κινδύνου καθώς η απορροφούμενη δόση μπορεί να είναι σημαντικά μεγαλύτερη από συνήθεις ακτινογραφικές εξετάσεις.

▼ Single-case experimental designs remain outside of mainstream methodology despite their substantial contributions to our understanding of human behavior. An obstacle to wider adoption is the lack of consensus regarding the analysis and meta-analysis of single-case data. Many single-case statistical methods have been proposed; nearly all are limited by the incompleteness of their models or their lack of formal statistical development, both limitations that inhibit research synthesis and knowledge building. This dissertation, presented in three manuscripts, introduces a simulation-based method of analysis and meta-analysis for single-case experimental designs. Interrupted Times-Series Simulation (ITSSIM) estimates treatment effect sizes by modeling level, trend, variance, and autocorrelation parameters. Parameter estimates are naturally imprecise in brief time-series. ITSSIM compensates for this imprecision by using an iterative procedure to model many plausible parameter values given the observed data. ITSSIM calculates an effect size by comparing a distribution of plausible ?null effects??the no-treatment predictions based on baseline data?to a distribution of plausible treatment effects. ITSSIM effect size estimates, reported as correlation coefficients, standardized mean differences, or unstandardized effects, are interpretable for both clinical practice and quantitative research synthesis. Three studies provide evidence for the content validity, construct validity, and criterion validity of ITSSIM effect size estimates using theoretical, comparative, and deductive strategies, respectively. The first study establishes the theoretical rationale for single-case simulation methods generally, and ITSSIM specifically. ITSSIM produced effect size estimates comparable to five sophisticated multilevel methods when a study of disruptive classroom behavior was reanalyzed. In the second study, ITSSIM produced mean effect size estimates consistent with similar meta-analyses of group-design research. The third study field tests a new software tool for simulation research of single-case statistics. ITSSIM performed reliably under a variety of simulation conditions, controlling for baseline trend and autocorrelation. The results from these three studies indicate that ITSSIM is a powerful, comprehensive method for analysis and meta-analysis of single-case experimental designs. ITSSIM effect size estimates are consistent with other, previously published single-case statistics, and it yields reasonable results even under extreme simulation conditions. ITSSIM is recommended to single-case investigators who wish to better understand their single-case data and treatment effects.

▼ Abstract Polymers are one of the most important materials in modern industry. An area of increased interest is understanding polymer blend behavior at surfaces. Understanding of these processes can help to improve material properties such as adhesion, viscosity and surface chemical composition. Current research into blends of polymers with the same monomer makeup but different architectures have been an area of increasing research. Previous work has examined blends of linear and branched systems. However, blends of polymers with cyclic chains are of increasing interest as new synthetic techniques have allowed cyclic blends to be more easily studied. Cyclic polymers have interesting properties because of their lack of end groups and more compact size when compared with linear polymers of the same molecular weight (MW). Wall Polymer Reference Interaction Site Model (Wall-PRISM) studies were conducted to compare with Neutron Reflectivity (NR) studies of cyclic/linear blends near surfaces. To accomplish this a new cyclic model was developed based on the linear Non-overlapping Freely Jointed chain model. The Wall-PRISM calculations were also performed over a range of densities and with different surface stiffnesses to study effects on chain packing at the surface. Abstract Even with increased computational power, large polymer systems can often still prove costly to simulate. Self-consistent PRISM (SC-PRISM) is a state-of-the-art hybrid approach that simulates only a single chain with effective interactions calculated by theory to mimic the influence of the surrounding chains. The recent introduction of Two-Chain SC-PRISM, simulating two chains with effective interactions, showed improvement of results over SC-PRSIM for polyethylene melts when compared with MD studies. However, numerical problems with using polymer chain simulation together with PRISM theory have kept Two-Chain SC-PRISM from being applied to a wide range of polymer systems. I have developed new methods for incorporating the simulation data to work with PRISM theory. This new method was tested on several small molecule systems with both hard sphere and attractive Lennard-Jones potentials and showed overall improvement over the single molecule version of RISM/PRISM. This new method was then extended to allow for attractive potentials, overcoming another limitation of conventional RISM/PRISM. With the new method tested and verified on smaller molecular systems, a foundation is laid for applying the Two-Chain SC-PRISM method to more complex polymer systems such as polyolefin blends and those with attractive interactions such as polymer electrolyte systems.

Neste trabalho foi desenvolvido um modelo computacional para simular o ambiente gasoso presente em um reator de filamento quente na obtenção de filmes de diamante através da deposição química à partir da fase gasosa. Foram estudados alguns mecanismos de crescimento aceitos pela comunidade científica e alguns modelos matemáticos de interação das espécies químicas bem como suas propriedades termodinâmicas. O modelo desenvolvido foi baseado na técnica DSMC que utiliza a distribuição de Maxwell-Boltzmann para a velocidade das partículas. Esse método é amplamente utilizado tanto na comunidade científica quanto na indústria com os propósitos mais variados. O modelo desenvolvido foi comparado com um expressivo trabalho da literatura e com resultados simulados através do pacote computacional CHEMKIN. Simulações adicionais foram realizadas a fim de verificarmos o comportamento do DSMCode quando submetidos à variações dos parâmetros de simulação. Os resultados obtidos estão em excelente concordância com os resultados experimentais e simulados por outros métodos creditando ao DSMCode uma ferramenta poderosa na simulação de um ambiente típico de reatores de filamento quente durante a produção de diamantes do tipo microcristalino.

In this work a computer model was developed to simulate the gaseous environment present in a hot filament reactor to obtain diamond films by chemical vapor deposition method. Some growth mechanisms were studied supported by the seientific community as well as some mathematical models of interaction of chemical species, associated to their thermodynamic properties. The model was based on DSMC technique that uses the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution for the particle velocity. This method is widely used in both the scientific community and industry with the most varied purposes. The model was compared with a significant work of literature and with simulated results by CHEMKIN computer software. Additional simulations were conducted to verify the behavior of DSMCode for different simulation parameters. The results are in excellent agreement with the experimental and simulated data. DSMCode should to be a powerful tool to simulate a typical Hot Filament Chemical Vapor Deposition reactor for the production of microcrystalline diamond.

Les alliages fer-chrome présentent des comportements thermodynamiques et cinétiques particuliers liés à leurs propriétés magnétiques. La décomposition de l’alliage par vieillissement thermique a été étudiée dans cette thèse. Pour cela, un modèle cinétique de la décomposition de l’alliage à l’échelle atomique a été développé en modélisant de façon détaillée les propriétés thermodynamiques et de diffusion des espèces chimiques dans l’alliage. L’évolution des propriétés de diffusion des éléments avec la transition ferro-paramagnétique de l’alliage a en particulier été modélisée. Les décompositions simulées par ce modèle ont été comparées à des décompositions expérimentales pour une large gamme de concentrations et de températures. Cette comparaison a montré un bon accord entre les cinétiques simulées et les expériences et a permis de mettre en évidence le rôle central de la transition ferro-paramagnétique dans la cinétique de décomposition des alliages fortement concentrés en chrome. Cette étude a également montré que la diffusion des éléments à l’interface des phases est responsable de la cinétique de décomposition de l’alliage aux temps longs. Une étude de la ségrégation induite par l’irradiation au voisinage des puits de défauts a également été commencée. Pour cela, un modèle de l’évolution de l’alliage sous irradiation contenant un puits de défauts a été développé. Il a été montré, en accord avec la littérature, que pour les cas faiblement concentrés en chrome, l’alliage a tendance à s’enrichir en chrome au voisinage des puits de défauts à basse température et à s’appauvrir en chrome à haute température.

Iron-Chromium alloys have a peculiar thermodynamic and diffusion behavior which is due to their magnetic properties. The alloy decomposition under thermal ageing has been studied in this thesis. An atomistic kinetic model has been performed in this aim in which we have modeled in details the chemical species thermodynamic and diffusion properties. In particular, the evolution of elements diffusion properties with the ferro-paramagnetic transition has been introduced in the model. Simulated decompositions have been compared with experiments for a large range of concentrations and temperatures. A good agreement between simulations and experiments was observed and these comparisons have highlighted the ferro to paramagnetic transition key role in the concentrated alloys kinetic decomposition. This study has also evidenced that the elements diffusion at phases interfaces is responsible for the alloy decomposition kinetic in long lasting. We have also started a study on the alloy radiation induced segregation. For that purpose, atomistic kinetic model has been performed modeling defects migration through a perfect planar sink.

Le phénomène d’émission électronique sous impact d’électrons, bien que très étudié, est mal connue à très basse énergie (<100 eV). Un domaine d’énergie où ce phénomène est un paramètre fondamental de technologies dans le domaine spatial comme les guides d’onde radiofréquence sous vide. Afin de lieux comprendre ce phénomène à cette gamme d’énergie,une étude théorique a été entreprise par le biais d’une simulation Monte-Carlo de l’émission électronique à très base énergie. Après identification des interactions mises en jeu, nous avons sélectionné pour chaque interaction le ou les modèles existants les plus appropriés tout en leur apportant des modifications à chaque fois que cela était nécessaire. Certains modèles trouvés dans la littérature ont été utilisés pour la première fois dans le domaine de l’émission électronique. Notre approche a été appliquée à l’aluminium et a été validée expérimentalement lorsque les données existaient. L’allure de la courbe de rendement communément admise à ce jour a été contredite et expliquée par la faible probabilité d’échappement des électrons de très basse énergie, ainsi que par un traitement plus rigoureux de la réflexion des électrons de très basse énergie qui impactent le matériau. De surcroit, la simulation donne accès pour la première fois à un rendement à très basse énergie qui présente des oscillations que l’on retrouve dans les rares données expérimentales disponibles. Ces oscillations sont attribuées à l’interaction de l’électron avec les plasmons. Les simulations ont montré l’importance de la population d’électrons rétrodiffusés à très basse énergie.

Although extensively studied, the phenomenon of electron emission under electron impact is not very well known at very low energy (<100 eV). An energy range where this phenomenon is a fundamental parameter in space technologies such as radiofrequency waveguide in vacuum. In order to provide a better understanding of the phenomenon, in this energy range, a theoretical study through Monte Carlo simulation of electron emission at very low energyhave been undertaken. After identification of the involved interactions, we selected for each interaction the most appropriate existing models while providing modifications whenever necessary. Somme models found in the literature were used for the first time in the field ofelectron emission. Our approach has been applied to aluminum and has been validated experimentally when data existed. The commonly accepted shape of the yield curve has benne contradicted and explained by the low escape probability of very low energy electrons, as well as by a more rigorous treatment of the reflection of very low energy electrons that impact thematerial. In addition, the simulation provides, for the first time, access to a yield curve at very low energy presenting oscillations also found in the few available experimental data. These oscillations are attributed to the interaction of the electrons with the plasmons. Simulations showed the importance of the backscattered electrons population ate very low…

Ce travail de thèse a pour but de proposer des potentiels d'interaction et des méthodologies pour prédire, au travers de simulations Monte Carlo, les équilibres et propriétés de phases de systèmes oxygénés rencontrés dans les procédés de conversion de la biomasse. Le potentiel AUA4 a ainsi été étendu aux alcools, éthers, cétones, aldéhydes et esters carboxyliques. Une attention particulière a été portée à la transférabilité de ce champ de forces, afin de pouvoir simuler de manière prédictive un grand nombre de molécules oxygénées. Différentes propriétés d'équilibre de corps purs sont correctement prédites (masses volumiques, pressions de saturation, enthalpies de vaporisation, propriétés critiques, tensions de surface, structure de la phase liquide). De nombreux mélanges ont également été simulés dans le pseudo-ensemble point de bulle, qui a été étendu aux molécules polaires dans le cadre de ce travail. Les résultats de simulation de mélanges complexes comme des bioessences ont été validés par l'acquisition de nouvelles mesures expérimentales. Enfin, une nouvelle méthodologie pour le calcul des interactions électrostatiques intramoléculaires a été mise au point dans ce travail pour la simulation de molécules oxygénées multifonctionnelles (polyols, éthers de glycol, composés aromatiques oxygénés). L'utilisation de cette méthode, qui permet d'éviter l'emploi de paramètres empiriques additionnels, conduit à des résultats très encourageants, ce qui laisse entrevoir de nombreuses perspectives pour la prédiction de propriétés de mélanges industriels complexes.

The goal of this thesis work is to propose interaction potentials and numerical methods to predict through Monte Carlo simulations the phase equilibrium and properties of oxygenated systems involved in biomass conversion processes. The AUA4 potential was therefore extended to alcohols, ethers, ketones, aldehydes and carboxylic esters. A special care was paid to the transferability of this force field to allow the predictive simulation of a large number of oxygenated compounds. Various equilibrium properties of pure compounds are correctly predicted (densities, saturation pressures, vaporization enthalpies, critical properties, surface tensions, liquid phase structure). Many mixtures have also been simulated in the bubble point pseudo-ensemble which was extended in this work to polar molecules. The simulation results of complex mixtures such as biofuels have been validated through new experimental data acquisition. Finally, a new methodology for the intramolecular electrostatic energy interaction has been developed in this work to simulate multifunctional oxygenated molecules (polyols, glycol ethers, oxygenated aromatic compounds). The use of this method, which allows to avoid the use of additional empirical parameters, leads to promising results, giving thus future opportunities to predict properties of complex mixtures of industrial interest

Ce travail de thèse a pour but d'améliorer la précision de mesure de la dosimétrie basée sur le transducteur en Nitrure de Gallium (GaN) et de développer son application en radiothérapie. L'étude comprend des phases de modélisation, de simulation et de caractérisation de cette réponse pour la radiothérapie externe et la curiethérapie. En modélisation, nous avons proposé deux approches pour modéliser la réponse du transducteur GaN en radiothérapie externe. Dans la première approche, un modèle a été construit à partir de données expérimentales et en séparant les composantes primaires et diffusées du faisceau. Pour la deuxième approche, nous avons adapté un modèle initialement proposé pour les diodes silicium pour l'adapter au transducteur radioluminescent GaN. Nous avons également proposé un concept original de dosimétrie bi-média qui permet à partir des réponses mesurées des deux média de remonter à la dose dans les tissus, sans connaissance à priori des conditions d'irradiation. Ce concept a été démontré par des simulations Monte Carlo. Par ailleurs GaN pour la curiethérapie à Haut Débit de Dose, la réponse du transducteur GaN sous irradiation des sources d'iridium 192 et de cobalt 60 a été évaluée par simulation Monte Carlo et confirmée par des mesures. Des études de caractérisation des propriétés du transducteur radioluminescent GaN ont été réalisées avec ces sources. Un prototype de fantôme instrumenté avec des sondes GaN a été développé pour le contrôle qualité en curiethérapie HDR. Il permet de vérifier en temps réel les paramètres physiques du traitement (position de la source, le temps d'exposition, activité de la source)

The work in this thesis has the objective to increase the measurement precision of the dosimetry based on the Gallium Nitride (GaN) transducer and develop its applications on radiotherapy. The study includes the aspects of modeling, simulation and characterization of this response in external radiotherapy and brachytherapy. In modeling, we have proposed two approaches to model the GaN transducer’s response in external radiotherapy. For the first approach, a model has been built based on experimental data, while separating the primary and scattering component of the beam. For the second approach, we have adopted a response model initially developed for the silicon diodes for the GaN radioluminescent transducer. We have also proposed an original concept of bi-media dosimetry which evaluates the dose in tissue according to different responses from two media without prior information on the conditions of irradiation. This concept has been shown by Monte Carlo simulation. Moreover, for High Dose Rate brachytherapy, the response of GaN transducer irradiated by iridium 192 and cobalt 60 sources has been evaluated by Monte Carlo simulation and confirmed by the measurements. Studies on the property characterization of GaN radioluminescent transducer has been carried out with these sources as well. An instrumented phantom prototype with GaN probe has been developed for the HDR brachytherapy quality…
