Résumé

Shape memory alloys (SMAs) are used in the oil and gas sector to manufacture high-strength components used in the manufacture of drilling machinery or for the transportation of oil and gas. These alloys are part of a group of materials that are called active or smart materials. They are special because they have certain characteristics that allow them to act as a sensor, as an actuator or even sometimes as a processor. They have the ability to naturally modify their physical properties when subjected to stimulation (temperature, electric current or magnetic field). They can be a cost-effective replacement for conventional actuator systems with a view to reducing space requirements. Due to corrosion, high temperature and high pressure, some AMF-based petroleum components suffer structural damage and other types of damage that threaten the entire plant. To increase the safety and efficiency of such components, it is necessary to have modeling tools to size future applications using these alloys, and to investigate the influence of microstructural parameters on their behavior. This thesis project is part of a global approach to the study of shape memory alloys. It aims to model the behavior of these alloys under extreme temperature and pressure conditions. The objective is to obtain a law allowing a good description of all the typical behaviors of MFAs (superelasticity, memory effect, assisted two-way memory effect, martensite reorientation, etc.) while remaining adapted to finite element calculation.
