MASTER'S DEGREE IN MECHANICAL ENGINEERING

The aim of this course is to introduce students to the finite element method applied to one-, two-, and three-dimensional problems in engineering and applied science. This introduction is given in the context of linear elasticity and small perturbations in statics. Starting with prerequisites in mathematics and solid mechanics, the principle of discretization is first addressed through the Ritz and Gallerkine approaches for one-dimensional media. Next, the issue of numerical integration is approached using the Gauss method. Meshing and validation of calculation models are then addressed during the study of surface modeling with 2D elements. Finally, these concepts will be used to implement the complete formalism of the finite element method in the context of bar and beam elements, then triangle-type elements. A practical application of these important theoretical concepts is carried out on an industrial calculation code (ANSYS) during practical work and a project.

This 42-hour course is divided into two parts (1/3, 2/3) in order to provide the basics of heat transfer and fluid mechanics (3D). Fluids will be considered as continuous media. A particle is defined as an infinitesimally small volume element for mathematical description, but large enough in relation to molecules to be described by continuous functions. This course builds on the L3 course on elastic media modeling and the fluid mechanics (1D) course.

This 42-hour course is divided into two identical parts that run in parallel. The first part focuses on the study of vibration problems in discrete media and in 1D continuous media (strings, beams). The second part focuses on the use of variational formulations to reformulate the problems studied in L3 in RDM and 3D elasticity.  This allows us to propose optimized approximate solutions. This part of the course establishes a link between RDM, 3D elasticity, and the second-semester course on finite elements.

- Generalized Standard Materials: This ECUE presents a unified framework for describing the thermomechanical behavior of materials. Building on the concepts of thermodynamics covered in preparatory years, it introduces the concept of irreversibility in a broader framework where the nature of state variables can become tensorial. A link with MMC is essential so that students understand how a purely mechanical description of continuous media and systems can be supplemented by a thermodynamic description of the material or constituents of the medium to be analyzed.

At the end of the course, students should be able to write the behavioral equations of state and complementary equations associated with a thermomechanical model. They should be able to draw up a complete energy balance, calculating in particular the deformation energy, the dissipated energy, and the heat sources induced by thermomechanical couplings.

- Heterogeneous Elasticity: This course extends the concept of elasticity to anisotropic media, heterogeneous media (design of composite materials), and large transformations (entropic elasticity of elastomers).

 - Vibrations and dynamic systems: Basic concepts of vibrations for single-degree-of-freedom modeling, with and without damping. Free vibrations. Forced vibrations. Study of the phenomenon of resonance.
Modeling of systems with two degrees of freedom. Resonance and anti-resonance.
Study of systems with a large number of degrees of freedom (e.g., from finite element modeling). Study of natural modes.
Dimensioning with respect to dynamic stresses.

This course unit allows students to apply the key steps of a mechanical design process, from the initial specifications to the qualification of the prototype, to one or more concrete cases dealt with in previous years in industrial projects. It thus supports the industrial projects of the year by mobilizing the same skills but on one or more solved cases, unlike the ongoing projects. It therefore requires the application of the various skills acquired in other courses, particularly non-technological ones, at Master's or Bachelor's level (fundamental principles of dynamics, strength of materials, continuum mechanics, vibrations, finite element simulation) to one or more real mechanisms that students can manipulate and experiment with.

- Viscoelasticity: The aim of this section is to explore in greater depth the modeling of viscoelastic behaviors already covered in the "Rheology 1" ECUE in order to introduce the generalized "series" and "parallel" versions of the Biot model. From a more "material" perspective, the concepts of relaxation time spectra are introduced to account for the transformations typically encountered in polymers, as well as the concept of time-temperature equivalence.

 - Plasticity: Present the basic plasticity models used in finite element calculation codes (isotropic and kinematic models). A link is made with the metallurgy course in order to highlight the microstructural events selected when setting up the macroscopic models. Similarly, the course will draw on the rheology course and the materials practicals, which highlighted the concepts of threshold and work hardening. The models set up can be used in projects focused on numerical simulation.

 - Damage: Present the various microscopic manifestations of damage on brittle, ductile materials.
Introduce a thermomechanical theory (Kachanov-Lemaitre) of damage that can be used to construct continuous models adapted to the type of material studied (brittle, ductile materials) and the loading mode (creep, oligo-cyclic fatigue, and high-cycle fatigue). The models developed can be used in the option project.

This course provides a general introduction to 1) the physics and mechanics of granular media and 2) their modeling using discrete methods (DEM). The multiscale nature of granular materials is discussed from the microscopic scale (contact interactions) to the macroscopic scale (structure scale). A phenomenological description of macroscopic behavior and microscopic properties is discussed for the static, quasi-static, and flow states of granular media. Micro-mechanical models and scale-changing approaches based on dimensionless analyses, averaged quantities, force transmissions, and the existence of anisotropies are introduced. The influence of particle properties and contact interactions on microstructure is also discussed. Discrete approaches (Discrete Element Methods (DEM)), regular approaches (Molecular Dynamics) and non-regular approaches (Contact Dynamics) are presented. In particular, the Contact Dynamics method will be implemented on simple examples using the LMGC90 calculation code.

Field measurements are increasingly used in engineering, particularly in mechanics. The aim of this module is to present the basics of different imaging methods using image interpretation models of increasing complexity.

We begin by defining the operating principles of imaging devices, then we present some mathematical morphology tools in order to extract statistical information on quantities of a geometric nature.

We then discuss infrared thermography methods using two interpretation models: camera calibration and thermal problem inversion to identify heat sources.

Image correlation methods are finally presented, with an emphasis on the various underlying interpretation models (camera, transformation, optical flow conservation, likelihood criterion).The course ends with a comparison between experimental measurements and a digital model using a finite element model registration method. The theoretical courses are supported by practical sessions that allow students to apply the processing methods and illustrate the influence of the main analysis parameters.

At the start of this teaching unit, the group of students (maximum of four) is given a set of documents, which always includes the Product Functional Specifications containing a validated solution in principle. The group of students must then provide a critical analysis of the documents provided and draw up an organizational plan to produce a technical file containing all the plans for the product's parts.

In this progression, students must go through an essential step, which consists of defining the product (CAD model) and justifying, through a set of calculation notes, the choice of components and the dimensions of the product's parts.

During the final project review, in the presence of the client, the group of students will present these results.

This teaching unit is a continuation of the "Definition of Industrial Products" teaching unit. Starting from the product definition file, the group of students (maximum of four) must produce a functional prototype of the solution that was subsequently validated. When manufacturing the prototype, the group of students must:

manage the subcontracting of parts to be manufactured and the purchase of standard components;

inspect manufactured parts and purchased components;

Assemble the prototype based on an assembly diagram created by the students.

Based on the characterization of the functions available in the CDCF, the student group must qualify the functional prototype by implementing all experimental means to verify each of the criteria and proposing corrective solutions in case of non-compliance.

This module provides the basic concepts needed to understand the different mechanical behaviors of materials and see how they can be studied using experiments or models. The module will begin with a basic review of continuum mechanics in the Small Perturbation Hypothesis (SPH). The different classes of mechanical behavior of materials will be studied (elasticity, viscoelasticity, plasticity, etc.) as well as the different mechanical moduli (Young's modulus, compressibility, shear modulus, Poisson's ratio, etc.) for all types of materials (metals, composites, polymers, etc.). After studying the links between different microstructures and mechanical properties, we will present the main tests used to characterize the mechanical behavior of materials. The basic concepts of anisotropic elasticity will also be presented (anisotropic elasticity tensors, orthotropy, transverse isotropy). The basic rheological models commonly used to model these behaviors will then be presented, and we will show how their parameters can be identified. The module will end with a presentation of dynamic analysis methods (DMA).

Biomechanics is essentially based on various mechanical theories (solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, etc.) applied to the study of biological systems. Since the Biomechanics course is open to an audience that is not necessarily expert in mechanics (doctors, orthopedists, physical therapists, etc.), it is necessary to introduce this audience to the basic concepts of rigid solid mechanics. In fact, the human body can be considered, as a first approximation, as a set of body segments (foot, leg, thigh, hip, torso, etc.) articulated with each other. These segments can be modeled by rigid solids in order to study aspects related to the static balance of the body, such as its movements, shocks, and traumatology.

Field measurements are increasingly used in engineering, particularly in mechanics. The aim of this module is to present the basics of different imaging methods using image interpretation models of increasing complexity.

We begin by defining the operating principles of imaging devices, then we present some mathematical morphology tools in order to extract statistical information on quantities of a geometric nature.

We then discuss infrared thermography methods using two interpretation models: camera calibration and thermal problem inversion to identify heat sources.

Image correlation methods are finally presented, with an emphasis on the various underlying interpretation models (camera, transformation, optical flow conservation, likelihood criterion).The course ends with a comparison between experimental measurements and a digital model using a finite element model registration method. The theoretical courses are supported by practical sessions that allow students to apply the processing methods and illustrate the influence of the main analysis parameters.

The aim of this course is to introduce students to the finite element method applied to one-, two-, and three-dimensional problems in engineering and applied science. This introduction is given in the context of linear elasticity and small perturbations in statics. Starting with prerequisites in mathematics and solid mechanics, the principle of discretization is first addressed through the Ritz and Gallerkine approaches for one-dimensional media. Next, the issue of numerical integration is approached using the Gauss method. Meshing and validation of calculation models are then addressed during the study of surface modeling with 2D elements. Finally, these concepts will be used to implement the complete formalism of the finite element method in the context of bar and beam elements, then triangle-type elements. A practical application of these important theoretical concepts is carried out on an industrial calculation code (ANSYS) during practical work and a project.

The first part of this course covers additional probability theory topics: conditional expectation, Gaussian vectors. The second part introduces one of the main families of discrete-time stochastic processes: Markov chains. These are sequences of dependent random variables, whose dependency relationship is relatively simple since each variable depends only on the previous one. They are also a very powerful modeling tool. We will study the main properties of these processes, as well as their long-term behavior and the estimation of their parameters.

This 42-hour course is divided into two parts (1/3, 2/3) in order to provide the basics of heat transfer and fluid mechanics (3D). Fluids will be considered as continuous media. A particle is defined as an infinitesimally small volume element for mathematical description, but large enough in relation to molecules to be described by continuous functions. This course builds on the L3 course on elastic media modeling and the fluid mechanics (1D) course.

This course provides a general introduction to 1) the physics and mechanics of granular media and 2) their modeling using discrete methods (DEM). The multiscale nature of granular materials is discussed from the microscopic scale (contact interactions) to the macroscopic scale (structure scale). A phenomenological description of macroscopic behavior and microscopic properties is discussed for the static, quasi-static, and flow states of granular media. Micro-mechanical models and scale-changing approaches based on dimensionless analyses, averaged quantities, force transmissions, and the existence of anisotropies are introduced. The influence of particle properties and contact interactions on microstructure is also discussed. Discrete approaches (Discrete Element Methods (DEM)), regular approaches (Molecular Dynamics) and non-regular approaches (Contact Dynamics) are presented. In particular, the Contact Dynamics method will be implemented on simple examples using the LMGC90 calculation code.

This course presents and develops different methods for modeling biological systems: from the physics of individual molecules to the physical study of systems and populations of objects (e.g., proteins) or organisms (bacteria).

These methods (both analytical and numerical) are derived mainly from statistical physics, stochastic process theory, and nonlinear physics.

Examples of studies are also provided based on the content of other modules in M1 and M2 to contextualize the various examples within the framework of physical theory and quantitative experimentation on living matter.
