Le problème de Coulomb-Dunkl dans le plan

Ce mémoire, composé d'un article en collaboration avec Monsieur Luc Vinet et Vincent X. Genest, est la suite du travail effectué sur les systèmes quantiques super-intégrables définis par des Hamiltoniens de type Dunkl. Plus particulièrement, ce mémoire vise l'analyse du problème de Coulomb-Dunkl dans le plan qui est une généralisation du système quantique de l'atome d'hydrogène impliquant des opérateurs de réflexion sur les variables x et y. Le modèle est défini par un potentiel en 1/r. Nous avons tout d'abord remarqué que l'Hamiltonien est séparable en coordonnées polaires et que les fonctions d'onde s'écrivent en termes de produits de polynômes de Laguerre généralisés et des harmoniques de Dunkl sur le cercle. L'algèbre générée par les opérateurs de symétrie nous a également permis de confirmer le caractère maximalement super-intégrable du problème de Coulomb-Dunkl. Nous avons aussi pu écrire explicitement les représentations de cette même algèbre. Nous avons finalement trouvé le spectre de l'énergie de manière algébrique.

Safety enhancement of operator protection systems on self-propelled mining equipment

In the long term, with development of skill, knowledge, exposure and confidence within the engineering profession, rigorous analysis techniques have the potential to become a reliable and far more comprehensive method for design and verification of the structural adequacy of OPS, write Nimal J Perera, David P Thambiratnam and Brian Clark. This paper explores the potential to enhance operator safety of self-propelled mechanical plant subjected to roll over and impact of falling objects using the non-linear and dynamic response simulation capabilities of analytical processes to supplement quasi-static testing methods prescribed in International and Australian Codes of Practice for bolt on Operator Protection Systems (OPS) that are post fitted. The paper is based on research work carried out by the authors at the Queensland University of Technology (QUT) over a period of three years by instrumentation of prototype tests, scale model tests in the laboratory and rigorous analysis using validated Finite Element (FE) Models. The FE codes used were ABAQUS for implicit analysis and LSDYNA for explicit analysis. The rigorous analysis and dynamic simulation technique described in the paper can be used to investigate the structural response due to accident scenarios such as multiple roll over, impact of multiple objects and combinations of such events and thereby enhance the safety and performance of Roll Over and Falling Object Protection Systems (ROPS and FOPS). The analytical techniques are based on sound engineering principles and well established practice for investigation of dynamic impact on all self propelled vehicles. They are used for many other similar applications where experimental techniques are not feasible.
