Abstract: A heating member for a vehicle exhaust gas purification device includes an electrically conductive outer peripheral frame that has a geometric center and is symmetrical about an axis. An electrically conductive central support is centered on the geometric center, and a perforated heating grid is centered on the geometric center. The heating grid extends between the electrically conductive central support and the electrically conductive outer peripheral frame. The heating grid is formed of a plurality of strands connected by nodes, with the plurality of strands delimiting openings therebetween.

Abstract: A method (P) for determining trajectory followed by a laser beam for selective additive manufacture of a three-dimensional object comprises: a) determining, on a predetermined reference path (Ti), a plurality of reference points (Tij), b) determining a plurality of adjacent points (Ti+1j) located on the same side of the reference path, each adjacent point (Ti+1j) being associated with a reference point (Tij) and being such that a simulated adjacent melt zone that surrounds said adjacent point (Ti+1j) and a simulated reference melt zone that surrounds the reference point (Tij) have an overlap corresponding to a fraction of a transverse width of the simulated reference melt zone that is comprised between a predetermined minimum fraction (?min) and a predetermined maximum fraction (?max), c) determining an adjacent path (Ti+1) passing through the plurality of determined adjacent points, and d) iterating steps a) to c) using the adjacent path, defined as a new reference path, so as to determine, on each iteration

Abstract: A process for the selective additive manufacture of a three-dimensional object from a layer of powder comprises: applying a layer of additive manufacturing powder to a support or to a previously consolidated layer, emitting a laser beam onto a first point of the layer of additive manufacturing powder so as to consolidate a first zone of the layer of powder comprising the first point, adjusting a power of the laser beam depending on an estimated temperature variation of the layer of powder at a second point, separate from the first point, and emitting a laser beam onto the second point with the adjusted power so as to consolidate a second zone of the layer of powder comprising the second point, the emission of the laser beam onto the first point and onto the second point being temporally separated by the predetermined time interval.

Abstract: The exhaust line comprises an injection segment including at least one cup having a large upstream face directly sprayed with the exhaust gases and dividing a circulation passage into an upstream space and a downstream space. The injection segment comprises at least one circumferential conduit fluidically connecting the upstream space to the downstream space. The cup defines at least one injection channel and at least one guiding area laid out so as to guide as far as said injection channel a portion of the exhaust gases spraying the large upstream face. An injection device includes a reagent injector that is oriented to inject the reagent substantially with a co-current or counter-current of the exhaust gases in the injection channel, with the latter extending from the injector as far as the inlet of the conduit.
