The Jamming transition is a generic phenomenon that occurs when an assembly abruptly ceases to evolve. This thesis proposes a characterization of the statistical properties of a model athermal system in the vicinity of this transition. The system, a bidimensionnal layer of 8500 metal cylinders, is studied in two experimental situations. The first one consists in examining the interstitial volume trapped in vertical packings of these grains. We show that in this static situation, the system exhibits long range correlations and a lack of extensivity. The second situation consists in vibrating such an assembly in the horizontal plane at various densities.We identify the Jamming transition on the force signal at the boundary.We study the diffus...
