    This thesis aims at studying and modeling a multipass welding operation of a high strength steel used in shipbuilding. In this framework, work focus on predicting the metallurgical and mechanical consequences of the process and, in particular, the residual stress distribution after welding. Since residual stresses can be detrimental to the performance of the welded product, their estimation is essential and numerical modelling is useful to predict them. Two welding mock-ups which are representative of a T- joint were used to characterize the evolution of thermal cycles, microstructure and residual stresses (measured by contour method and deep hole drilling) after each welding pass. Metallurgical and mechanical behaviors were thoroughly characterized in order to feed numerical models with reliable constitutive equations. The last part deals with the implementation of the models in the finite element calculation code Abaqus using specific subroutines. A scale transition procedure has been added to describe the thermomechanical multiphase behavior of the steel. Preliminary calculations were carried out for simple cases to validate the implementation of models. Different numerical couplings were made. First a thermal analysis then a thermo-metallurgical analysis, to estimate the hardness after each welding pass. Finally, a metallurgical-mechanical analysis is achieved for the prediction of residual stresses due to multipass welding. The results of the finite element calculations were discussed and compared with the experimental results obtained in the first part of this work.Les travaux effectués au cours de cette thèse ont pour objectif d’étudier et de modéliser une opération de soudage multipasse d’un acier à haute limite d’élasticité utilisé en construction navale. Dans ce cadre il s’agit de prédire les conséquences métallurgiques et mécaniques du procédé et tout particulièrement la répartition et l’intensité des contraintes résiduelles post- soudage nécessaires pour analyser l’intégrité de la structure navale en service. Deux maquettes représentatives d’un joint d’angle en Té ont permis de caractériser l’évolution des cycles thermiques, de la microstructure et des contraintes résiduelles (estimées par les méthodes du contour et du trou profond) après chaque passe de soudage. La suite de l’étude concerne la caractérisation et la modélisation du comportement thermo-métallurgique et thermo- mécanique des différentes phases apparaissant au cours du soudage. La dernière partie porte sur l’implémentation des modèles retenus dans le code de calcul élément finis Abaqus à l’aide de sous-programmes spécifiques. Une étape de transition d’échelle a permis de décrire le comportement thermomécanique multiphasé de cet acier. Des calculs préliminaires ont été conduits pour valider l’implémentation des modèles sur des cas simples. Différents couplages ont été réalisés, soit une analyse thermique puis thermo-métallurgique, pour estimer la dureté après chaque passe et enfin métallurgique-mécanique pour prédire les contraintes résiduelles pour le procédé de soudage multipasse. Les résultats des calculs éléments finis ont été discutés et comparés aux résultats expérimentaux obtenus dans la première partie de cette étude

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods
