Abstract: Provided are a working method and an apparatus for bending a metallic material three-dimensionally. A bending method for bending a metallic material supported by support means, downstream of the support means, while feeding the same from the upstream to the downstream is used to manufacture a bent product having a three-dimensionally bent portion and a hardened portion intermittently. The metallic material is partially heated downstream of the support means by metallic material heating means, and the position of a movable roller die having a plurality of rolls arranged downstream of the heating means for feeding the metallic material heated by the heating means in the axial direction is three-dimensionally changed to bend that portion of the metallic material, which is heated by the heating means, by applying a bending moment to that portion. The portion heated by the heating means is hardened by blowing a cooling medium by cooling means arranged between the heating means and the movable roller die. The metallic material is supported at its portion having left the movable roller die, thereby to suppress the error of the bent product.

Abstract: Un emmanchement pour un manche oblong et une tête d'outil. L'emmanchement peut être positionné sur l'extrémité supérieure du manche après que l'extrémité supérieure du manche est passée à travers l'oil de la tête d'outil. L'emmanchement est de forme frustoconique et s'emmanche avec la tête d'outil comme un dans un système d'emmanchement par coincement dans une douille conique. Cependant, parce que l'extrémité inférieure de la poignée n'a pas à passer à travers l'oil de la tête d'outil, l'extrémité inférieure de la poignée, soit le manche, peut adopter n'importe quelle forme. Donc, cette invention permet d'utiliser un emmanchement par coincement dans une douille conique tout en permettant au manche d'adopter n'importe quelle forme.

Abstract: - Méthode pour déterminer quantitativement l'évolution de perméabilité et de porosité d'un milieu poreux au cours de la diagenèse.   - On définit un scénario de diagenèse ainsi qu'une structure initiale du réseau de pores du milieu poreux. On construit une représentation du réseau de pores au moyen d'un modèle PNM. Puis, pour chaque étape du scénario de diagenèse, on réalise les étapes suivantes : on détermine la concentration en ions aux parois des pores et canaux du modèle PNM, pour une réaction de précipitation ou de dissolution en fonction du scénario, et on en déduit une variation de géométrie du modèle PNM. Pour le modèle PNM ainsi modifié, on calcule la porosité de façon géométrique et la perméabilité à partir de la loi de Darcy. On réitère ces étapes en fonction du scénario de diagenèse. Enfin, on en déduit une loi entre la perméabilité du milieu poreux et la porosité du milieu poreux au cours de la diagenèse.     Application notamment à l'exploitation de gisements pétroliers.
