Abstract
Résumé

We present an analysis of an electrostatic field within a helicoidal structure with a twist, which is small compared to the characteristic size of the cross-section. The asymptotic results are checked against exact computations thanks to helicoidal coordinates, which preserve the intrinsically two-dimensional nature of the problem. The numerical studies are performed using the finite elements.

Nous proposons une analyse du champ électrostatique dans une structure torsadée par une approche de type perturbative, à la limite des faibles torsions. La méthode asymptotique décrite est validée à l'aide d'une modélisation exacte de la torsion qui préserve le caractère essentiellement bi-dimensionnel du problème (coordonnées hélicoïdales). Les études numériques sont menées en utilisant les éléments finis.
