Record number: 11, Textual support number: 1 CONT

The apparent opening size (AOS) or equivalent opening size (EOS) (they are equivalent terms) are defined in CW-02215 as the U.S. Standard sieve number that has openings closest in size to the openings in the fabric. The test uses known sized glass beads of designated number and determines by sieving ... that size of beads for which 5% or less pass through the fabric. 6, record 11, English, - apparent%20opening%20size

Record number: 11, Textual support number: 2 CONT

AOS (apparent opening size) is the basic indicator of the pore size of a geotextile. The AOS test involves dry sieving of glass beads and ASTM D 4751 describes the standard methodology. The AOS actually measures the near-largest pore diameter in the geotextile. Using similar terminology as soil gradation, AOS is commonly expressed as O₉₅ (based on retaining 95% of a given size glass bead). There are other indicators opening sizes that design methods have used such as O90, O98, O_f or filtration opening size (FOS). When two different geotextiles (same O₉₅ value) were compared, each geotextile might have different hydraulic behaviors. 7, record 11, English, - apparent%20opening%20size

ouverture de filtration (tamisage à sec, ou par voie sèche) : équivalents obtenus auprès d'un professeur de l'École polytechnique de Montréal, qui donne un cours intitulé «Mécanique des sols expérimentale».

Pour les géotextiles utilisés comme filtres, on mesurera par commodité la probabilité de passage des particules de sol d'un diamètre connu. On assimile ainsi le géotextile à un tamis. On enregistre la taille maximale des particules traversant le tamis, mesure assimilée à un diamètre, d'où l'expression «diamètre de filtration». Plusieurs principes et méthodes sont actuellement utilisés pour définir cette caractéristique : tamisage à sec de billes de verre calibrées [...]; tamisage à sec de particules de sol [...]; tamisage de sol à l'humide [...]; tamisage de sol sous régime hydrodynamique. 2, record 11, French, - ouverture%20de%20filtration%20%28tamisage%20%C3%A0%20sec%29

Record number: 11, Textual support number: 3 OBS

Le critère de rétention des particules de sol est généralement exprimé par un rapport entre l'ouverture de filtration du géotextile (représentant sa porométrie) et la dimension des plus grosses particules de sol susceptible de le traverser (D). Ouverture de filtration. Diverses techniques ont été développées pour mesurer la taille des pores d'un géotextile. Elles sont divisées en trois classes : les méthodes directes (optiques ou par analyse d'images); indirectes (tamisage) ou théoriques (calcul de la porométrie). Les méthodes par tamisage sont les seules à avoir été normalisées. Le diamètre d'ouverture de filtration est défini comme la dimension d₉₅ de la courbe cumulative des particules passant au travers le géotextile pendant le tamisage. En d'autres mots, d₉₅ est la dimension de l'ouverture du géotextile dont 95 % de ses ouvertures sont inférieures à cette valeur. Au Canada, deux méthodes sont actuellement utilisées : le tamisage hydrodynamique qui donne le paramètre FOS (Filtration Opening Size) (CAN/CGSB 148.1-10) et le tamisage à sec qui donne le AOS (ASTM D 4751-81). Pour mesurer le FOS, on dépose sur le géotextile une quantité déterminée de billes de verre et on le soumet à une série d'immersions et d'émersions dans un bac rempli d'eau. Les particules sont alors entraînées à travers l'échantillon. Cette procédure simule des conditions que l'on retrouve dans des applications de filtration et de séparation. Selon certains, le FOS est donc le seul critère à appliquer pour la conception de filtres et de séparateurs. En effet, la procédure d'immersion et d'émersion force les particules à passer au travers du géotextile. Aussi, le fait de mouiller les particules pendant le tamisage élimine les forces d'électricité statique à la surface des particules et des fibres. Avec le tamisage à sec, les forces électrostatiques qui se développent pendant le test entraînent une agglomération des particules, même en utilisant un agent antistatiq 3, record 11, French, - ouverture%20de%20filtration%20%28tamisage%20%C3%A0%20sec%29
