▼ Despite challenges with poor emissions and fuel economy, gasoline two stroke engines continue to be developed for a number of applications. The primary reasons for the choice of a gasoline two stroke engine includes its low cost, mechanical simplicity and high specific power output. Some applications for the gasoline two stroke engine include small capacity motorcycles and scooters, off road recreational vehicles, hand held power tools and unmanned aerial vehicles. New technologies, which are already mature in four stroke engines, are now being applied to two stroke engines. Such technologies include direct fuel injection, electronic engine management and exhaust gas after treatment. To implement these new technologies computation models are being continuously developed to improve the design process of engines. Multi-dimensional computational fluid dynamics modelling is now commonly applied to engine research and development, it is a powerful tool that can give great insight into the thermofluid working of an engine. Multi-dimensional tools are however computationally expensive and quasi-dimensional modelling methods are often better suited for the analysis of an engine, for example in transient engine simulation. This thesis reports the development of a new quasi-dimensional combustion model for a loop scavenged two stroke engine. The model differs from other quasi-dimensional models available in the literature as it accounts for a bulk motion of the flame front due to the tumble motion created by the loop scavenge process. In this study the tumble motion is modelled as an ellipsoid vortex and the size of the vortex is defined by the combustion chamber height and a limiting elliptical aspect ratio. The limiting aspect ratio has been observed in experimental square piston compression machines and optical engines. The new model also accounts for a wrinkled flame brush thickness and its effects on the interaction between flame front and combustion chamber. The new combustion model has been validated against experimental engine tests in which the flame front propagation was measured using ionization probes. The probes were able determine the flame front shape, the bulk movement of the flame front due to tumble and also the wrinkled flame brush thickness.

▼ Approximating high and infinite
dimensional integrals numerically is in general a very difficult problem. However, it is also one that arises in several applications from statistics, finance and uncertainty quantification, thus motivating a real need for the development and analysis of efficient algorithms. The difficulty lies in the fact that in general high-
dimensional problems suffer from the curse of dimensionality where the cost of an approximation rises exponentially with dimension. However, knowing certain properties of the integrands allows one to identify problems that do not suffer from the curse and for which efficient algorithms can be developed. In this thesis we study numerical integration algorithms, specifically
Quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) quadrature rules and the Multivariate Decomposition Method (MDM), when bounds on the first mixed derivatives are known. The focus in this thesis is on analysis and development of algorithms, a new application for QMC methods from the field of uncertainty quantification and efficient strategies for implementing numerical integration algorithms.The main results of this thesis are as follows. First, we present a full error analysis for the application of QMC methods to approximate the expectation of the smallest eigenvalue of an elliptic differential operator with coefficients that are parametrised by infinitely-many stochastic variables. Eigenvalue problems are used to model many physical situations in engineering and the natural sciences, and this problem is motivated by uncertainty quantification of such problems. It also represents a new application for QMC methods. Second, we provide explicit details and numerical results on how to efficiently implement the Multivariate Decomposition Method (MDM) for approximating infinite-
dimensional integrals. The third contribution of this thesis is a new method of constructing optimal active sets for use in the MDM. Finally, we present two user-friendly Component-by-Component algorithms for constructing QMC lattice rules, which automatically choose good function space weight parameters. In all cases we present numerical results that display the advantages of the algorithms, and where appropriate substantiate our corresponding theoretical results.

▼ Quasi-geostrophic (QG) analysis of the atmosphere utilizes predefined isobaric surfaces
to ascertain vertical motion. One equation of the QG system is the omega equation
that states that vertical forcing results from differential vorticity advection and thickness
advection. Two problems arise when using the QG omega equation: the forcing terms
are not independent and must be analyzed simultaneously, and vertical forcing is visually
noisy. Both issues are resolved using a smoothing and quantification technique that applies
the QG omega equation. The analysis fields from a selection of events were chosen from
the North American Mesoscale model. Using a finite differencing methodology dependent
on the wavelength of synoptic features, values of vertical forcing were calculated using the
omega equation. The calculated omega field correlated well with model omega while also
quantifying and visualizing large perturbations in vertical forcing. The method allows for
quick diagnosis of forcing type and strength within the atmosphere.

▼ 1-D simulations based on the
quasi-one-
dimensional equations of fluid motion plus an ignition delay model and 2-D numerical simulations based on Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations have been performed for two different scramjet combustors. The combustor configurations at DLR and NASA's SCHOLAR Supersonic Combustor have been used as test cases for the 1-D and 2-D simulations. Comparisons between the published 3-D computational and experimental results and
quasi-one-
dimensional and 2-D simulations have been performed. The
quasi-one
dimensional modeling of NASA's SCHOLAR supersonic combustor captures the trends in Mach number, static pressure and static temperature for both cold flow and combustion case. The comparison with experimental result for combustion case reveals a close agreement with the pressure peak and the presence of an ignition delay. Thus, 1-D simulation very closely predicts the flow evolution within the combustor. On the other hand, for DLR supersonic combustor, due to the lack of oblique wave (i.e. shock waves and expansion waves) and shear dominated viscous flow simulation, 1-D model severely fails to predict the trend followed by the experimental result along the centerline of the combustor. However, the 1-D model is able to match the overall flow velocity achieved within the combustor downstream of the wedge at approximately six wedge chord lengths.

▼ Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are atomically thin semiconductors of the type MX2 with M being a transition metal and X being a chalcogen atom. TMDs have recently attracted considerable attention because of their novel electronic and optical properties. Many TMDs have been studied except CrS2 because of the challenges in its synthesis. However, the most stable form of chromium sulfides, Cr2S3, chromium (III) sulfide, has been known to exhibit novel properties. For this reason, we studied the possibility of synthesizing thin Cr2S3 to mimic CrS2. We synthesized single phase Cr2S3 in vacuum sealed quartz tubes. The synthesis takes about 5 days. After the synthesis, we deposited Cr2S3 on sapphire substrates via solid-vapor growth method. For characterization, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and x-ray powder diffraction (XRD) techniques were used and atomic force microscopy (AFM) was used for imaging the
quasi-two-
dimensional Cr2S3 particles.

Quasi-1D Modelling of Particle-Laden Internal Turbulent Flows with Nucleation, Agglomeration and Breakup: Application to Asphaltenes Deposition in Oil Wells.

▼ Particle-laden internal turbulent flows are very commonplace, for example, in petrochemical flow lines, oil wells and so on. From an engineering view point, modelling such flows in a 3D or even 2D fashion may not be reasonable in terms of computational cost, especially when the flow domain is sufficiently long, and a large number of grid cells are needed to resolve the flow field. On the other hand, ID models are quite fast but only take into account the stream-wise variations of the flow characteristics, without providing any information on their cross-sectional distribution. In this work, a novel
quasi-ID modelling framework was introduced, which is able to capture the flow field in both stream-wise and cross-stream directions and yet stay computationally more efficient than the 3D or 2D models. The
quasi-ID modelling framework was developed based on the one-way coupling of a RANS model for the single-phase turbulent flow with an Eulerian model for the transport of the dispersed particle phase. The nucleation, agglomeration and breakup events were also taken into considera¬tion through the generic population balance equation, the solution of which was provided using the direct quadrature method of moments. The results of the
quasi-ID single-phase flow model were verified and shown to be in accordance with those of the AN SYS Fluent 2D model for different test cases. The computational cost analysis revealed that the simulation CPU time of the
quasi-ID model increases linearly with the number of streamwise grid cells (Nx), whereas that of the 2D model scales with Nx1.6, implying that the
quasi-ID model will perform faster than the 2D model from a certain number of grid cells on. The
quasi-ID multi-phase-flow tool was then used to address the transport and deposition of asphaltenes in oil wells, as an example of particle-laden internal turbulent flows. To this end, a simulation test case was set up with several simplifications, and the results were compared with those of a simpler ID model in the literature, as the benchmark. Due to the lack of an appropriate model for the collision efficiency of asphaltene particles, a model associated with liquid droplets was adopted and tuned to obtain a match between the results of this study and the benchmark. The outcome of the sensitivity analysis demonstrated that the collision efficiency plays an important role in determining the asphaltenes deposition profile along the well bore and needs to be modeled accurately.

▼ The protection of important infrastructure and vital resources of the United States is essential to the Nation's security. Attacks using the Nation's infrastructure as weapons of mass destruction could have a disturbing physical and psychological consequences. Work needs to be done to enhance the protection of the Nation's infrastructure to prevent, deter, or mitigate the effects of deliberate attacks by terrorist. Toxic inhalation hazard (TIH) chemicals such as chlorine gas and anhydrous ammonia are very dangerous hazardous materials. Rail transportation of TIH creates risk that exposes highly populated areas across the country to this threat. This study investigates the ballistic resistance and self-sealing nature of a
quasi 3D tri-axial woven composite layered with polyurea against high power rifle bullet impact. This is done by evaluating the effectiveness of
quasi-3D tri-axial woven composites in resisting .50 caliber rifle rounds and utilizing a high speed camera to visually inspect the self-sealing behavior. The concept is to utilize the increase in delamination resistance of tri-axial
quasi 3D woven fabrics in conjunction with the hyper-elasticity of polyurea to design an improved ballistic protection system with self-sealing properties. For comparison, a layer of basalt fiber composite will be used in conjunction with the tri-axial Q3D weave and polyurea. The addition of the basalt layer is to see if the shock wave of the impact will yield different results with the thicker and stiffer bi-axial plain weave layered basalt composite. The unique geometry of the
quasi-3D tri-axial weave is that it is infinitely repeatable in its thickness direction. This repeatability is done without utilizing discrete ply or large crimp angles. The geometry of the weave allows for greater energy absorption compared to a standard weave. The result is a self-sealing coating that can be applied to railcar tankers or stationary tanks carrying toxic chemicals without increasing the weight or carrying capacity of the tanker.

▼ Spin-imbalanced Fermi gases serve as a testbed for fundamental notions and are efficient table-top emulators of a variety of quantum matter ranging from neutron stars, the quark-gluon plasma, to high critical temperature superconductors. A macroscopic quantum phenomenon which occurs in spin-imbalanced Fermi gases is that of phase separation; in three dimensions, a spin-balanced, fully-paired superfluid core is surrounded by an imbalanced normal-fluid shell, followed by a fully polarized shell. In one-dimension, the behavior is reversed; a balanced phase appears outside a spin-imbalanced core. This thesis details the first density profile measurements and studies on spin-imbalanced
quasi-2D Fermi gases, accomplished with high-resolution, rapid sequential spin-imaging. The measured cloud radii and central densities are in disagreement with mean-field Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer theory for a 2D system. Data for normal-fluid mixtures are well fit by a simple 2D polaron model of the free energy. Not predicted by the model is an observed phase transition to a spin-balanced central core above a critical polarization.

▼ Fluid turbulence is a ubiquitous phenomenon that has been called "the greatest unsolved problem in classical physics." Despite the fact that fluid flows are governed by the deterministic Navier-Stokes equation, turbulence is notoriously difficult to predict. This difficulty largely arises because turbulence is chaotic (i.e., it exhibits extreme sensitivity to initial conditions) and has a very large number of degrees of freedom because of its continuous spatial dependence. However, a growing body of research suggests that turbulent dynamics are effectively low-
dimensional, but it is not yet known how to optimally perform dimensionality reduction to capture the dynamically-relevant dimensions. In this dissertation, two dimensionality reduction methods are explored in the context of a
quasi-two-
dimensional (Q2D) fluid flow. This Q2D flow can be treated as effectively 2D, making the experimental and numerical aspects of the study more tractable than that of a fully three-
dimensional flow. The first method involves the calculation of exact, unstable solutions of the Navier-Stokes equation, often called "exact coherent structures" (ECS). ECS exist in the same parameter regime as turbulence and play an important role in guiding the dynamics. In this work, experimental evidence for the existence and dynamical relevance of ECS is provided, as well as the first experimental demonstration of how ECS can be used to forecast weak turbulence. The second method, known as "persistent homology," provides a powerful mathematical formalism in which well-defined geometric features of a flow field are encoded in a so-called "persistence diagram." The results presented herein demonstrate how persistence diagrams can be used to characterize individual flow fields, make pairwise comparisons, and identify periodic dynamics. The substantial progress presented in this dissertation suggests that Q2D flows provide an excellent platform for testing new approaches to understanding turbulence.

▼ Simulations have been, and continue to play, an important role at the Arnold Engineering Development Center as an aid in control system development and operator training. These models were just simple lumped-parameter methods. Since their initial inception, over ten years ago, little work has been done to increase the fidelity of the models. The processing power of the computer hardware used by the simulations has increased dramatically during this time and this left an opening for improvements to the models adopted in the simulation. To fill this void a
quasi-one-
dimensional control volume has been developed to run in real-time. The new control volume accounts for changes in area, transient effects, friction and other minor pressure losses, and localized heat transfer. All of which were previously unaccounted for. This new capability was compared against known analytical solutions and applied to an example flow system that demonstrates the new features. The result is a control volume that can be used in wind tunnel, or in other industrial process, simulations to provide a more realistic model.

▼ Optical reflectance of the quasi two dimensional compound Hg₂.₈₆AsF₆ has been investigated in the optical range, 0.5 to 4 eV. The spectra clearly show a plasma edge at 3 eV. They are fitted to a Drude model and two Lorentz oscillators. From the plasma frequency and the model parameters values for the dc conductivity and the effective mass and an estimate of the crytsal anisotropy have been obtained. The results compare well with earlier electrical measurements on this compound.

▼ Die Fähigkeit, Atome in niedrigen Raumdimensionen mit Laserlicht fangen und
manipulieren zu können, hat zu einer gewaltigen Entwicklung in der Erzeugung
kohärenter Materiewellen im Bereich des aufkommenden Atomtronik-Gebietes
geführt. Die vorliegende Doktorarbeit beinhaltet eine detaillierte
theoretische Untersuchung von verschiedenen
quasi-eindimensionalen Fallen im
Hinblick darauf, wie sowohl statische als auch dynamische Eigenschaften
gefangener Bose-Einstein-Kondensate (BEK) beeinflusst werden können. Abgesehen
vom einleitenden Teil ist die Doktorarbeit in drei Teile gegliedert, die
sukzessive aufeinander aufbauen. Im zweiten Teil der Doktorarbeit beschränken
wir uns darauf, 87Rb-Atome in einer
quasi-eindimensionalen Fallengeometrie zu
untersuchen, die aus einer harmonischen Falle sowie einer rot- oder blau-
verstimmten Gaußschen oder Hermite-Gaußschen Dimpelfalle besteht. Es handelt
sich hierbei um eine erweiterte Falle, die kürzlich in Innsbruck verwandt
wurde, um die Quantenentartung des ersten Strontium Bose-Einstein-Kondensates
ohne die traditionelle Verdampfungskühlung zu erreichen. Nach der Erläuterung
der Systemgeometrie vergleichen wir analytische und numerische
Gleichgewichtsresultate und zeigen, dass die Falle entweder zu einer Beule
oder einer Delle im Kondensat führt, abhängig davon, ob die Lasermode entweder
rotoder blau-verstimmt ist. Verfolgt man die Expansionsdynamik des
Kondensates, so zeigt sich, dass die Beule erhalten bleibt, während sich die
Delle mit der Zeit verkleinert. Nachdem das rot- bzw. blau-verstimmte optische
Dipolfallenpotential ausgeschaltet wird, entstehen Schockwellen bzw. graue
(dunkle) Bi-Soliton-Züge, die mit einer charakteristischen Frequenz in der
verbleibenden harmonischen Falle oszillieren. Es stellt sich heraus, dass die
Erzeugung der Bi-Soliton-Züge ein generisches Phänomen darstellt, das auf
Kollisionen des teilweise oder vollständig fragmentierten Bose-Einstein-
Kondensates zurückzuführen ist. Es ist erstaunlich, dass die Form der
erzeugten Solitonen in dem harmonisch gefangenen Bose-Einstein-Kondensat durch
ein bestimmtes optischen Dipolfallenpotential bestimmt werden kann.
Anschließend analysieren wir im zweiten Teil der Doktorarbeit ein
quasi-
eindimensionales Bose-Einstein-Kondensat in einer gravito-optischen
Oberflächenfalle. Um solch ein nichtlineares Randwertproblem zu lösen, wenden
wir das Spiegelprinzip an, das üblicherweise verwendet wird, um lineare
Randwertprobleme zum Beispiel im Bereich der Elektrostatik zu behandeln. Durch
Kombination analytischer und numerischer Resultate zeigen wir, dass sich die
Kondensatwellenfunktion von einer Gauß- zu einer Dreiecksform verändert, wenn
man die Atomzahl erhöht. Außerdem untersuchen wir numerisch im Detail zwei
nicht-ballistische Expansionen einer BEK-Wolke unter dem Einfluß der
Gravitation, wenn das evaneszente Fallenpotential ausgeschaltet wird. Im
ersten Falle nehmen wir an, dass die Teilchen verloren gehen, wenn sie auf das
Prisma auftreffen, so dass die Teilchenzahl in quantitativer Übereinstimmung
mit einem…

▼ The ram accelerator is a hypervelocity launcher capable of speeds over 2 km/s and theoretically much higher. It operates by launching a projectile into a tube pre-filled with gaseous propellant, which combusts and generates thrust. The ram accelerator requires a minimum initial velocity which must be attained with a supplementary initial launcher. Single-stage light gas and conventional powder guns have traditionally been used for the initial launch. This study details the modeling and testing of an onboard solid rocket as an initial launcher for the ram accelerator. A
quasi-one-
dimensional model was developed and executed with a second-order MacCormack scheme with second- and fourth-order artificial diffusion terms. Atmospheric static fire and in-tube projectile cases were both considered theoretically and experimentally to evaluate the
quasi-one-
dimensional model. The accuracy of the model’s inert gasdynamics were supported by experiment, but the combustion dynamics of the pro- pellant were inaccurate. The rocket augmented projectile did not provide the velocity gains predicted by the
quasi-one-
dimensional model.

▼ A new quasi-dimensional, multi-zone model has been developed to describe the combustion processes occurring inside a dual fuel engine. A dual fuel engine is a compression ignition engine in which a homogeneous lean premixed charge of gaseous fuel and air is ignited by a pilot fuel spray. The atomisation and preparation of the pilot leads to the formation of multiple ignition centres from which turbulent flame fronts develop. The energy release in a dual fuel engine is therefore a combination of that from the combustion of the pilot fuel spray and lean premixed charge. Hence, the dual fuel combustion process is complex, combining elements of both conventional spark and compression ignition engines. The dual fuel engine is beneficial as it can achieve significant reductions in emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), as well as reducing emissions of oxides of nitrogen (NOx) and particulate matter (PM).

▼ In most serviceability conditions, concrete structures present
quasi-brittle behavior and failure due to the presence of a nonlinear fracture process zone ahead of the crack front. Predictive models and design methodologies have to be able to reliably calculate the load capacity, or structural strength, of structures while taking into account the nonlinearity of the material behavior and the consideration of realistic boundary conditions such as geometry, size, and loading configuration. The main objective of this study is to develop models and to apply numerical tools to predict the cracking potential in three-
dimensional concrete structures. Firstly, a cohesive zone model is formulated and implemented to simulate mode I crack growth in
quasi-brittle materials based on the thermodynamics of irreversible processes allowing for loading, unloading, and re-loading. The model is a step forward to improve existing cohesive zone formulations to consider three-
dimensional geometries and also overcome numerical instability, lack of convergence, and oscillations in the traction profile commonly reported in cohesive models.
This study also explores the novel computational framework of the generalized finite element method (GFEM) to predict the potential for crack propagation in large scale problems such as three-
dimensional airfield concrete slabs. A multi-scale approach, using the global-local concept within the GFEM framework (GFEMg-l), is applied to multi-site damage problems (MSD), where several crack geometries are placed simultaneously at different positions in a slab and loaded by different aircraft gears. This approach efficiently simulates multiple cracks not discretized in the global mesh, but only modeled in the local problem domains. The GFEMg-l enrichment functions allow the kinematics to be represented in the global domain through enrichment function from the local problems rather than explicitly modeling each crack discretely in the global domain.
This research effort also proposes an integrated approach called nonlinear strength fracture model (NLSFM) to predict the structural strength or load capacity of three-
dimensional concrete structures considering the structure geometry, loading configuration, and the nonlinearities ahead of the crack front. In this approach, the extraction of crack front quantities, such as stress intensity factors, are performed through finite element analysis, and then a high-order approximation based on the equivalent elastic crack approach for
quasi-brittle materials accounts for the FPZ effects on the nominal strength of the structure under mode I fracture. The NLSFM uses the size- and shape-independent fracture properties defined through the critical energy release rate, Gf, and size of fracture process zone, c (as provided by the two-parameter fracture model and size effect model for
quasi-brittle materials). As a result, the model predicts a material independent strength-curve, given the structural geometry, boundary conditions, loading, initial crack length are…

▼ Fluid turbulence is nearly ubiquitous in natural and human-made systems. Despite systematic research for over hundred years, scientists are still searching for efficient ways to forecast and control the evolution of turbulent flows. The research presented in this thesis tests and extends recent ideas aimed at developing a simplified description of turbulent evolution, with the final goal being its efficient forecasting and control. The underlying methodology includes identifying ``Exact Coherent Structures'' (ECS), which are unstable, nonchaotic solutions of the Navier-Stokes equation that describes the evolution of fluid flows. While ECS are observed only fleetingly in turbulence, they display relatively simple spatiotemporal features. Hence, being more tractable to analysis than turbulence, ECS may serve as simple building blocks in developing a simplified description of turbulent evolution. The present study explores the role of ECS in turbulence generated in a shallow electrolyte layer which is driven using a horizontal electromagnetic force with a sinusoidal spatial profile. The flow in the experiment, often termed
quasi-two-
dimensional (Q2D) Kolmogorov Flow, is nearly horizontal. The Q2D flow is described theoretically using a strictly 2D model, which is validated by showing quantitative agreement between its numerical simulation and the experiment in the comparison of pre-turbulent flow states and the transitions between them. Analyzing the dynamics in the weakly turbulent regime, it is identified that dramatic slowing-down in the evolution of the flow is related to turbulent trajectories in the state space visiting the neighborhoods of unstable equilibrium solutions, a class of ECS. The dynamical role of ECS is validated by showing that turbulent trajectories in the neighborhood of an unstable equiliurbium depart following its unstable manifold. Hence, turbulent evolution in the neighborhood of the equilibrium can be forecast by constructing its unstable manifold, which is demonstrated using both the experiment and simulations. This study offers unambiguous experimental evidence for the dynamical role of ECS in turbulence, as well as the first ECS based forecasting of turbulent evolution.

▼ The high exciton binding energy in one
dimensional (1D) nano-structures makes them prominent for optoelectronic device applications, making it relevant to theoretically investigate their electronic and optical properties. Many-body effects that are not captured by the conventional density functional theory (DFT) have a huge impact in such selenium and tellurium single helical atomic chains. This work goes one step beyond DFT to include the electron self-energy effects within the GW approximation to obtain a corrected
quasi-particle electronic structure. Further, the Bethe-Salpeter equation was solved to obtain the absorption spectrum and to capture excitonic effects. Results were obtained using the Hyberstein-Louie (HL), and the Golby Needs (GN) generalized plasmon pole (GPP) models. The first bound excitonic state is well localized within 50 A along the c-axis of the crystal, with a high exciton binding energy of 2.5 eV (GN) and 2.78 eV (HL) for Se and 2.09 eV for (GN) and 2.28 eV (HL) for Te nano-wire.

Fuel economy predictions for heavy‐duty vehicles and quasi‐dimensional DI diesel engine numerical modeling.

▼ A research team developed the University of Texas Fuel Economy Model to estimate the fuel consumption of both light-duty and heavy-duty vehicles operated on Texas roads. One of the objectives of the model was to be as flexible as possible in order to be capable of simulating a variety of vehicles, payloads, and traffic conditions. For heavy-duty vehicles, there are no prescribed driving cycles, there are no coastdown coefficients available from the EPA, and we relied on experimental brake specific fuel consumption maps for a few heavy-duty diesel engines.
Heavy-duty vehicle drive cycles highly depend upon the vehicle load, the grade of the road, the engine size, and the traffic conditions. In order to capture real driving conditions 54 drive cycles with three different Class 8 trucks, three weight configurations, three traffic congestion levels, and two drivers are collected. Drive cycles obtained in this research include road grade and vehicle speed data with time.
Due to the lack of data from EPA for calculating the road load force for heavy-duty vehicles, coastdown tests were performed.
To generate generic fuel maps for the fuel economy model, a direct injection
quasi-
dimensional diesel engine model was developed based on in-cylinder images available in the literature. Sandia National Laboratory researchers obtained various images describing diesel spray evolution, spray mixing, premixed combustion, mixing controlled combustion, soot formation, and NOx formation via imaging technologies. Dec combined all of the available images to develop a conceptual diesel combustion model to describe diesel combustion from the start of injection up to the
quasi-steady form of the jet. The end of injection behavior was left undescribed in this conceptual model because no clear image was available due to the chaotic behavior of diesel combustion. A conceptual end-of-injection diesel combustion behavior model was proposed to capture diesel combustion in its life span.
A full-cycle
quasi-
dimensional direct injection diesel engine model was developed that represents the physical models, utilizing the conceptual model developed from imaging experiments and available experiment-based spray models, of the in-cylinder processes. The compression, expansion, and gas exchange stages are modeled via zero-
dimensional single zone calculations. A full cycle simulation is necessary in order to capture the initial conditions of the closed section of the cycle and predict the brake specific fuel consumption accurately.

▼ We explore the excitonic, electronic, phononic and thermal properties of low-dimensional materials, specifically the two-dimensional and quasi-one-dimensional transition metal chalcogenides. The possibility of observing Bose-Einstein exciton condensation (BEC) in transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) has been analyzed at three different levels of theory. We find that, in the strong coupling regime, mean field theory with either an unscreened or screened interlayer interaction predicts a room-temperature condensate. However, intralayer interactions can essentially renormalize the quasiparticle dispersion, which can be captured by many-body GW formalism. In the strong coupling regime, the improved BEC theory predicts that intralayer interactions have a large impact on the condensate order parameter, as well as on its functional dependencies on effective mass and carrier density. We also explore the thermal properties of 2D materials, specifically in the misoriented bilayer graphene (m-BLG) system, using ab initio density functional theory (DFT) and phonon Boltzmann transport equation (BTE). we find that the lattice thermal conductivity of m-BLG reduces to almost half of its unrotated counterpart. To explain the phonon dynamics, we analyze the phonon dispersions, phonon velocity distributions, occupations, density of states and heat capacity, both before and after misorientation. Detailed calculation of the phonon-phonon scattering lifetime reveals that, the increased umklapp scattering in the acoustic and quasi-acoustic phonon branches is the main reason for the reduced thermal conductivity in m-BLG system. We also explore the thermal conductivity of quasi-1D materials, specifically TaSe3 and NbS3, using ab initio DFT and phonon BTE. We find that both materials exhibit highly anisotropic thermal transport. A thermal conductivity of 6.3 W/mK (70.6 W/mK) is observed for metallic TaSe3 (semiconducting NbS3) along the chain direction. In-depth study of velocity and lifetime distribution shows that lower scattering and higher phonon velocity in NbS3 are the reasons behind such higher thermal conductivity. The umklapp scattering process is found to be the dominant phonon scattering mechanism in this family of low-dimensional materials. We also investigate the electronic and vibrational properties of different phases of the quasi-1D material NbS3. We find that the dimerized phase NbS3-IV is a semiconductor, whereas the undimerized phase NbS3-V is a metal. Similarity between the band dispersions of phase-I and phase-IV arises from the similarity in their structures, in spite of some stacking and chiral faults. Both phase-I and phase-IV are dynamically stable, whereas the phonon dispersion in phase-V exhibits instability along the inter-chain and growth direction, indicating a possible charge density wave ground state. Finally, we explore the band alignment properties of different quasi-1D transition metal trichalcogenides (TMTs). From the DFT calculations, we can identify several TMTs as promising candidates for ohmic…

▼ This thesis presents the investigation of magnetism in a selection of low-dimensional systems and its relation to other physical properties, such as superconductivity. The techniques employed are muon spin rotation and pulsed magnetic field magnetisation. The ability of muons to directly probe the local field is used to study SrFeAsF, which is a parent compound of the high-temperature superconducting pnictides. This revealed that the magnetic and structural transitions are separated in this system. I then demon- strate the coexistence of magnetism and superconductivity in NaFeAs for the first time. This discovery is of great interest since the interplay between magnetism and supercon- ductivity is thought to play an important role for high-temperature superconductivity. I further investigate the effect of partially replacing Fe with Co in NaFeAs. I study the ordering and spin reorientation in the Mott insulator Sr₂IrO₄, which has been suggested as a possible high-temperature superconductor. The complex magnetism observed in this system is contrasted to that in related iridates Ca₄IrO₆, Ca₅Ir₃O₁₂ and Sr₃Ir₂O₇. By combining pulsed-field magnetization and low magnetic field experiments with μSR on a series of coordination polymers. I am able to determine the size and direction of the magnetic exchange interaction. I demonstrate how it is possible to adjust the in- teractions by altering the molecular architecture of these Cu-based spin- 1 2 compounds. This is a significant contribution since it will lead to the targeted design of magnetic systems that can be utilized to experimentally test fundamental theories of magnetism.

▼ This thesis describes the neutron scattering measurements of magnetic excitations in
spin-chains and ladders. The first part discusses an experimental investigation of the copper oxide family Srâ â Cuâ â Oâ â composed of edge-sharing chains and spin-ladders.
The study of Laâ Srâ â Cuâ â Oâ â comprises a slightly hole-doped chain and an undoped ladder structure where the chain can be modeled by a ferromagnetic nearest and an
antiferromagnetic next-nearest neighbor coupling. The hole effects are apparent in gaps in the dispersion relation and can be described by a charge-density wave agreeing with the commensuration of the dispersion. Investigating the undoped ladder establishes
the exchange constants including a cyclic exchange manifested by the two-magnon
continuum and the suppression of the S = 1 bound mode. An orbital consideration
provides an explanation for the exchanges including the different sizes of rung and
leg coupling. The excitation spectrum of the doped ladder in Caâ .â Srâ â .â Cuâ â Oâ â can be
described by a direct comparison with the undoped ladder and the differences consisting
of a higher energy mode and subgap scattering can be successfully modeled by the charge spectrum of the ladder calculated from the free electron model. The second part of the thesis investigates the alternating chain material Cu(NOâ )â · 2.5D2O and establishes the gapped one-magnon dispersion, the two-magnon continuum and for the first time the S =1 bound mode. Applying magnetic field drives the system through two critical field transitions, condensation of magnons into the ground state and saturation. The modes beyond saturation can be modeled by spin wave theory and the excitations at the first critical field follow Luttinger Liquid behavior. Additionally investigated are the temperature effects with the excitations being of a different nature but containing the signature of a strong correlated system. For an outlook the measurements including temperature and field are provided with further theoretical descriptions necessary.

▼ This thesis describes the study of the quasi-one-dimensional material orthorhombic tantalum trisulfide. TaS3 and other transition metal trichalcogenides have been studied extensively because of their unique electronic properties. However, this study presents the first scanning tunneling microscope imaging of two-dimensional flakes of TaS3. To study this material, we first modified a preparation tool on the microscope, and cleaned the microscope vacuum system to enable imaging at ultra-high vacuum. We achieved atomic-resolution imaging of TaS3 in order to better understand its crystal structure, which has been under investigation for decades. This thesis also involved the use of scanning tunneling spectroscopy to perform the first study of the material’s electronic properties at the two-dimensional level. The results are not fully conclusive, but they do provide valuable information about a material that shows potential for novel electrical applications at the nanoscale.

▼ This dissertation presents the first experiments on radio frequency (rf) spectroscopy of a
quasi-two
dimensional strongly interacting ultracold atomic Fermi gas. A 50-50 mixture of spin-up and spin-down atoms is confined in a series of pancake-shaped traps produced using an optical standing-wave. To make the system
quasi-two
dimensional, I adjust the Fermi energy in the weakly confined direction to be comparable to the harmonic oscillator energy level spacing in the tightly confined direction. For a perfectly two
dimensional system, at low enough temperature, spin-up and spin-down atoms should form dimers in the ground state of the tightly confined direction. However, in our
quasi-two
dimensional system I find that the simple dimer theory does not agree with the measured radio-frequency spectra. Instead, the data can be explained by polaron to polaron transitions, which is a many-body effect. Here, a polaron is a spin-down impurity surrounded by a cloud of particle-hole pairs in a spin-up Fermi sea. With this unique strongly interacting
quasi-two
dimensional system, I am able to study the interplay between confinement induced two-body pairing and many-body physics in confined mesoscopic systems of several hundred atoms, which has not been previously explored and offers new challenges for predictions.

▼ A searched for narrow-band-noise (NBN) modulations of the infrared transmission in blue bronze has been performed. No modulations were observed, giving an upper limits for NBN changes in the absorption coefficient of )2000/(/3.0.andlt;.cmNBN. The implication of these results on proposed CDW properties and NBN mechanisms are discussed. An infrared microscope with a capability of doing both reflectance and transmission measurements has been integrated into the previous electro-transmission system with tunable diode lasers. Electro-optic experiments were done using the microscope for the studies of the CDW states of K0.3MoO3 (blue bronze) and orthorhombic TaS3. The electro-reflectance signal for blue bronze has been evidenced for the first time. The infrared reflectance of K0.3MoO3 varied with position when a voltage greater than the CDW depinning threshold is applied. The spatial dependence of .R/R was slightly different than for ./, in that the magnitude of .R/R decreased and, for low voltages and frequencies, the signal became inverted near the contacts. Perhaps the differences might be associated with changes in the CDW properties on the surface. For blue bronze, the electro-reflectance signal was measured to be smaller than electro-transmittance signal by one order of magnitude for light polarized transverse to the chain direction, while the electro-reflectance signal for parallel polarized light was found to be a few times smaller than for transverse polarized light. The fits of the electro-reflectance spectrum showed that the changes in background dielectric constant were ~ 0.05 % and/or oscillator strength and/or frequency shifts of the phonons were ~ 0.05 % and ~ 0.005 cm-1 in the applied electric field. We also found that parallel polarized phonons are affected by CDW strain, and these changes dominate the electro-reflectance spectrum. We have examined the electro-reflectance spectra associated with CDW current investigation for light polarized parallel to the conducting chains for signs of expected current-induced intragap states, and conclude that the density of any such states is at most a few times less than expected. We have observed a large (~1%) change in infrared reflectance of orthorhombic TaS3, when its CDW is depinned. The change is concentrated near one current contact. Assuming that the change in reflectance is proportional to the degree of CDW polarization, we have studied the dynamics of CDW repolarization through position dependent measurements of the variation of the electro-reflectance with the frequency of square wave voltages applied to the sample, and have found that the response could be characterized as a damped harmonic oscillator with a distribution of relaxation (i.e. damping) times. The average relaxation time, which increases away from the contacts, varies with applied voltage as with p ~ 3/2, but the distribution of times broadens as the voltage approaches the depinning threshold. Very low resonant frequencies (~ 1 kHz) indicate a surprisingly large amount of inertia, which is…

▼ Les réseaux d’antennes planaires sont réputés par leur grande directivité et leur facilité de mise en œuvre qui offre la possibilité d’avoir un diagramme de rayonnement commandable. Cependant l’étude globale tenant compte des différents couplages EM par une théorie électromagnétique rigoureuse nécessite un espace mémoire important et un temps de calcul considérable. Pour surmonter à ces inconvénients, nous proposons d’introduire une nouvelle approche théorique basée sur le théorème de Floquet permettant la réduction du volume d’analyse EM au niveau d’une seule cellule élémentaire. Nous allons focaliser notre étude à la détermination des termes de couplage dans une configuration répartie dans une trame presque-périodique et en particulier pour les réseaux d’antennes périodiques et quasi-périodiques alimentés par des sources arbitraires. Dans ce cas, nous utiliserons les décompositions en modes de Floquet (adaptées aux structures périodiques) pour extraire la matrice de couplage [S]. Ces décompositions sont des concepts établis de longue date et a priori démontrés par de supports théoriques solides. Par conséquent, cette analyse modale permet de simplifier la résolution du problème considéré surtout quand les éléments rayonnants sont fortement couplés. Une seule méthode numérique est adoptée afin de modéliser la structure proposée : la méthode des moments combinée avec le circuit équivalent généralisé : MoM-GEC. La validation de cette dernière sera réalisée par comparaison avec d’autres méthodes numériques exactes
Planar antenna arrays are renowned for their high directivity and ease of implementation, which offers the possibility of having a controllable radiation pattern. However the global study taking into account the different EM couplings by a rigorous electromagnetic theory requires a large memory space and a considerable computation time. To overcome these drawbacks, we propose to introduce a new theoretical approach based on the Floquet theorem allowing the reduction of the EM analysis volume at the level of a single elementary cell (basic cell). We will focus our study on the determination of coupling terms in a distributed configuration in an almost-periodic frame and in particular for periodic and quasi-periodic antenna arrays fed by arbitrary sources. In this case, we will use Floquet mode decompositions (adapted to periodic structures) to extract the coupling matrix [S]. These decompositions are concepts established for a long time and a priori demonstrated by solid theoretical supports. Consequently, this modal analysis makes it possible to simplify considerably the resolution of the problem, especially when the radiating elements are strongly coupled. A single numerical method is adopted in order to model the proposed structure: the method of moments combined with the generalized equivalent circuit: MoM-GEC. Validation of the latter will be done by comparison with other exact numerical methods.

▼ L’objectif de notre thèse est de comprendre et d’expliquer les modes d’intégration des systèmes comptables des entreprises à partir de quatre cas (deux grandes entreprises et deux entreprises moyennes). Nous nous sommes appuyés sur la théorie de la différenciation-intégration de Lawrence et Lorsch (1967) pour interpréter les situations d’intégration étudiées. Cette théorie montre que les entreprises ayant des structures très différenciées disposent des mécanismes d’intégration sophistiqués tandis que celles dont les structures sont peu différenciées ont des mécanismes de coordination rudimentaires. Nous avons également mobilisé l’approche événementielle et multidimensionnelle de Sorter (1969) qui propose un cadre théorique de l’intégration informatico-comptable. Les progiciels ERP constituent une application très concrète de cette approche. Notre analyse qualitative de quatre cas en termes de similitudes et de différences, appuyée sur la théorie de la différenciation-intégration, a permis d’expliquer les situations d’intégration des sous-systèmes comptables observées mais aussi de montrer la pertinence de l’approche événementielle, comme cadre de conception du système d’information de structures diversifiées et différenciées. Nos résultats montrent, à l’instar de Lawrence et Lorsch, qu’il existe des modes différents d’intégration des systèmes comptables adaptés à des contextes différents. Nous avons ébauché une typologie de quatre configurations types des systèmes comptables (quatre situations d’intégration-différenciation) : (1) Système classique bidimensionnel, (2) Système quasi-intégré centralisé, (3) Système intégré, (4) Système multidimensionnel. La stratégie et la taille paraissent être, au-delà de toutes autres considérations, les principaux déterminants de l’intégration comptable ; viennent ensuite, l’environnement et certains autres éléments du contexte tels que la structure de gestion et le système de contrôle. Cependant, l’impact de la taille diffère d’une entreprise à l’autre. Lorsque la taille est combinée à une stratégie de diversification (et par extension à des environnements variés et dynamiques) son effet différenciateur sur l’organisation (et le système comptable) est très important, ce qui nécessite des mécanismes compensateurs d’intégration développés. Les deux entreprises diversifiées (POULINA et MEDDEB) ont mis en place un système comptable intégré voire multidimensionnel pour maitriser leurs sous-systèmes différenciés. Lorsque la taille est la conséquence d’un simple développement d’une activité unique (monoactivité) son effet différenciateur-intégrateur sur l’organisation et le système comptable est moins important. Les deux entreprises ayant des activités et des structures homogènes (SONEDE et SME) se sont contentées d’un système comptable peu intégré voire bidimensionnel.

▼ Partial differential equations (PDEs) with incomplete knowledge on differential operators arise in science and engineering. This lack of knowledge results in uncertainty in the respective solutions. Mathematically, unknown coefficient functions of differential operators are modeled by random fields. These random fields describe physical quantities that constitute the PDE under consideration. In this thesis, elliptic PDEs with random coefficient functions will be studied. These describe for example subsurface flow in unknown media, which is modeled by a random field. Statistical moments of random solutions are formally infinite-
dimensional integrals over parameter vectors that represent the random field input. In the considered models, the logarithm of the random field input is expanded in a function system with random, independent and identically distributed parameters. Suitable decay in the function systems allows to control the error of truncating the expansion. The resulting high-
dimensional integral may be approximated by quadrature methods, particularly by
quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) rules. Here, the approximation of the expectation of functionals of the random solution is investigated. A class of admissible parameter distributions is considered, which includes the normal distribution as a special case and accommodates distributions with densities that decay more weakly than the density of the normal distribution. In this setting, QMC by randomly shifted lattice rules with so-called product weights is applicable, which allows the fast component-by-component construction algorithm to have asymptotic computational cost that grows linearly with respect to the truncation dimension, i.e., the number of terms in the expansion of the random field input. The random solution is spatially discretized by the finite element method, which has asymptotically optimal convergence rates also in non-convex polygonal or polyhedral domains if suitable local mesh refinement is used. The computational cost that is required to achieve an error threshold is studied asymptotically. In this thesis it is shown that multilevel QMC is in certain cases able to achieve an error with computational cost that is asymptotically essential the computational cost of solving the respective elliptic PDE with known, deterministic coefficient function. In particular, also the computational cost of iterative methods to approximate the solution is incorporated.

▼ This thesis presents theoretical investigations of triplet superfluidity (triplet superconductivity) in
quasi-one-
dimensional organic conductors and ultra-cold Fermi gases. Triplet superfluidity is different from its s-wave singlet counterpart since the order parameter is a complex vector and the interaction between fermions is in general anisotropic. Because of these distinctions, triplet superfluids have different physical properties in comparison to the s-wave case. The author discusses in this thesis the interplay between triplet superconductivity and spin density waves in
quasi-one-
dimensional organic conductors, and proposes a coexistence region of the two orders. Within the coexistence region, the interaction between the two order parameters acquires a vector structure, and induces an anomalous magnetic field effect. Furthermore, the author analyzes the matter-wave interference between two p-wave Fermi condensates, and proposes a polarization effect. For a single harmonically trapped p-wave Fermi condensate, the author also shows that the expansion upon release from the trap can be anisotropic, which reflects the anisotropy of the p-wave interaction.

▼ Cette thèse s’inscrit dans une thématique de recherche prioritaire développée par le laboratoire GREAH et portant sur l’optimisation de l'efficacité énergétique des systèmes de gestion et de production de l’énergie électrique. Dans ce cadre, les performances de convertisseurs d’énergie (machines électriques pour la conversion de l'énergie électromécanique) ont un impact déterminant sur l'efficacité énergétique de la conversion et sur la qualité de gestion de l'énergie électrique en termes de rendement, de maximisation de la puissance massique, de réduction des émissions, de réduction des coûts, ce qui nécessite, par conséquent, un effort particulier de conception et de dimensionnement. L’objectif principal de cette thèse vise à développer un modèle léger permettant d’exploiter assez rapidement l’espace des solutions potentiellement optimales dans la première phase de la conception des machines synchrones à aimants permanents. Les travaux présentés dans ce mémoire de thèse portent sur la modélisation électromagnétique pour le pré-dimensionnement et la conception des machines synchrones à aimants permanents intégrées dans l’éolien de fort puissance. Dans ce manuscrit, deux approches de modélisation des machines électriques ont été proposées. La modélisation par réseau de réluctances présentée consiste à découper le domaine d’étude en un certain nombre d’éléments volumiques dont chacun est décomposé en tubes de flux. La modélisation analytique hybride proposée est basée sur un couplage fort entre un réseau de réluctances généré à partir d’un maillage du domaine d’étude et une solution formelle des équations de Maxwell dans les régions de faible perméabilité (entrefer magnétique). Les résultats obtenus à partir de ces modèles sont validés par les résultats correspondants issus de la méthode des éléments finis. Pour montrer le gain obtenu en temps de calcul, les temps d’exécutions des codes de calcul sont comparés aux temps mis par le logiciel Flux.
This subject of the thesis is part of a priority research theme developed by the GREAH laboratory on the optimization of the energy efficiency of electrical energy management and production systems. In this context, the performance of energy converters (electrical machines for the conversion of electromechanical energy) have a decisive impact on the energy efficiency of the conversion and on the quality of electrical energy management in terms of efficiency, reduction of emissions, reduction of costs, which therefore requires a special effort to design. The main objective of this thesis is to develop a light model allowing to exploit fairly quickly the space of potentially optimal solutions in the first phase of machine design. The work presented in this thesis focuses on electromagnetic modeling for the pre-design of permanent magnets synchronous machines integrated into high power wind turbines. In this manuscript, two modeling approaches of electric machines have been proposed. The presented reluctance network modeling is generated from the mesh of studied domain as the…
