Abstract:

Schlumberger drilling tools are exposed to very hard loading conditions (shocks, vibrations, thermal cycling) while performing a job. As these tools are full of electronics, issues can quickly come from electronics failure. Mechanisms of failure occurring in electronics are very complex but can be predicted in some cases. The first part of the thesis describes in which context mechanical engineering applied to electronics is used in Schlumberger. The different kinds of failure which will be investigated in the report are presented in this part. The second part deals with fatigue models used in

This thesis describes investigations into the phenomenon of time estimation in mechanical engineering design. Time estimating in this context refers to estimating in advance the approximate duration of a new design project, for the purpose of preparing schedules. The thesis describes background to the estimation problem, including practical and theoretical aspects of design, design management and market conditions. The research presented is based on data gathered from industrial collaborators, therefore detailed descriptions of the collaborating firms are included. A quantitative study is desc

New technological processes of hardening using nanotechnology have been developed, tested and used in the manufacture. In this case, an integrated approach is used in the study, which included constructive solutions at hardening, application of nano- and micro-sized coatings, the choice of material and processing technology. New technologies of hardening are effective for work in friction, corrosion and fatigue conditions.

Abstract:

Mechanical wave propagation in civil engineering materials is important for diﬀerent application ﬁelds, such as thermal conductivity, damage detection and sound transmission (including ﬁlters and sound barriers). A current open challenge is to understand how the chemistry and microstructures of cementitious materials impact the propagation of mechanical waves in them. The challenge is heightened by the fact that cementitious materials are very heterogeneous at the microscale. In this project, molecular and nanoparticle based simulations will be used in order to construct microstructures of ce
