CATLIFE (Complementary Arm for Target LIke FragmEnts): Spectrometer for Target like fragments at VAMOS++

The multi-nucleon transfer reaction between 136Xe beam and 198Pt target at the beam energy 7 MeV/u was studied using the large acceptance spectrometer VAMOS++ coupled with the newly installed second arm time-of-flight and delayed $\gamma$-ray spectrometer CATLIFE (Complementary Arm for Target LIke FragmEnts). The CATLIFE detector is composed of a large area multi-wire proportional chamber and the EXOGAM HPGe clover detectors with an ion flight length of 1230 mm. Direct measurement of the target-like fragments (TLF) and the delayed $\gamma$-rays from the isomeric state helps to improve TLF identification. The use of the velocity of TLFs and the delayed $\gamma$-ray demonstrate the proof of principle and effectiveness of the new setup

INTERACTIONS BETWEEN DISLOCATIONS AND CRYSTALLINE DEFECTS DURING THE CYCLIC DEFORMATION OF A 0.7 Wt% Al-Li ALLOY

In the aerospace industry requirements for new materials with high mechanical properties and low density has stimulated research works in Al-Li alloys. For ten years numerous studies have been developed in order to promote complex alloys having convenient mechanical and physical properties, and able to replace conventional alloys /1/ and /2/. From a fundamental point of view basic researchs to study the microscopic mechanisms controlling the mechanical behauiour of Al-Li alloys have to entered upon because several microscopic mechanisms are not well understood. Such investigations were first conducted on binary Al-Li alloy in solid solution state or having a fine distribution of δ' (Al3Li) precipitates, according to the amount of lithium atoms. Tensile properties /3/ or cyclic behaviour /4/, /5/ have been investigated. The ain of this paper is to determine in terms of dislocation-crystalline defect interactions the microscopic mechanisms involved in the cyclic deformation of a solid solution of a binary Al-Li alloy, containing 0.7 Wt % of lithium. This work is a part of a whole research program devoted to Al-Li binary alloys in our laboratory and therefore is complementary to studies presented in reference /5/

A cooperative approach to avoiding obstacles and collisions between autonomous industrial vehicles in a simulation platform

International audienceIndustry 4.0 leads to a strong digitalization of industrial processes, but also a significant increase in communication and cooperation between the machines that make it up. This is the case with autonomous industrial vehicles (AIVs) and other cooperative mobile robots which are multiplying in factories, often in the form of fleets of vehicles, and whose intelligence and autonomy are increasing. While the autonomy of autonomous vehicles has been well characterized in the field of road and road transport, this is not the case for the autonomous vehicles used in industry. The establishment and deployment of AIV fleets raises several challenges, all of which depend on the actual level of autonomy of the AIVs: acceptance by employees, vehicle location, traffic fluidity, collision detection, or vehicle perception of changing environments. Thus, simulation serves to account for the constraints and requirements formulated by the manufacturers and future users of AIVs. In this paper, after having proposed a broad state of the art on the problems to be solved in order to simulate AIVs before proceeding to experiments in real conditions, we present a method to estimate positions of AIVs moving in a closed industrial environment, the extension of a collision detection algorithm to deal with the obstacle avoidance issue, and the development of an agent-based simulation platform for simulating these two methods and algorithms. The resulting/final/subsequent simulation will allow us to experiment in real conditions
