Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

• Imagine, design, carry out and operate machinery, mechanical systems and mechanical production units to provide a solution to a complex problem by integrating needs, constraints, context and technical, economic, societal, ethical and environmental issues.
• Identify complex problems to be solved and develop the specifications by integrating needs, contexts and technical, economic, societal, ethical and environmental issues.
• Optimally design and calculate the dimensions of machinery, mechanical systems and mechanical production units, based on state of the art, a study or model, addressing the problem raised; evaluate them in light of various parameters of the specifications.
• Implement a chosen solution in the form of a drawing, a schema, a diagram or a plan that complies with standards, a model, a prototype, software and/or digital model
• Integrate maintenance policies and a quality approach.
• Evaluate the approach and results for their adaptation or optimisation of the proposed solution.
• Mobilise a structured set of scientific knowledge and skills and specialised techniques in order to carry out mechanical engineering missions, with a focus on Design and Production, using their expertise and adaptability.
• Master and appropriately mobilise knowledge, models, methods and techniques related to the mechanics of solids and fluids, energy exchanges, dynamic and vibratory behaviour of systems, manufacturing and mechanical production, operating machines, and production management (organisation, maintenance, quality).
• Study a machine, a mechanical system or a mechanical production unit by critically selecting theories, models and methodological approaches, and taking into account multidisciplinary aspects.
• Identify and discuss possible applications of new and emerging technologies in the field of mechanical design and production.
• Assess the validity of models and results in view of the state of science and characteristics of the problem.
• Communicate and exchange information in a structured way - orally, graphically and in writing, in French and in one or more other languages - scientifically, culturally, technically and interpersonally, by adapting to the intended purpose and the relevant public.
• Argue to and persuade clients, colleagues, teachers and boards, both orally and in writing.

Learning Outcomes of UE

Master the key elements needed for the maintenance manager of an industrial unit, being informed of technical and economical data, information flows, general methods and procedures, tools for modeling reliability and maintainability for the deployment of "Reliability-Cntered Maintenance" or "Total Productive Maintenance" strategies.

UE Content: description and pedagogical relevance

Understand RAMS : reliability, availability, maintenability and safety of mechanical systems (with the point of view of the designer); apply methodologies to measure and optimize the availability and performance of production lines (with the point of view of the process/production/quality/maintenance manager); understand technological and organisational aspects of industrial maintenance, from corrective maintenance to intelligent maintenance. This obviously brings together organizational skills (methods part) and analytical skills (statistical part)

Prior Experience

Probabilities and statistics; machine elements; mechanical vibrations; signal analysis (frequency analysis)
