During this applied engineering internship (13 to 16 weeks, starting at the end of year 3), the engineering student joins a company or a university laboratory with the objective of taking on a variety of tasks and assignments that correspond to his/her level of studies.

Failure under static stresses
The brittle and ductile fracture mechanisms are studied for the different families of materials as well as the various influencing parameters. The brittle ductile transition, the toughness, as well as the fracture statistics, complete this part to refine the choices of materials and their dimensioning for the strenght to sudden fracture by crack propagation.
Failure under dynamic stresses
The mechanisms of fatigue failure in materials, and the bases of pre-dimensioning of parts for dynamic stresses are studied.
The course is illustrated with numerous examples and exercises from expertises treated in the laboratory.
Practical work
In the form of mini projects allowing for a global consideration of the design, choice of materials, analytical and numerical calculations and expertise of parts subjected to dynamic or statics constraints.

The chapters of the course, grouped according to the general objectives, are as follows:

Characterization of the vibrations of a system:
- analytical study: sub-structuring of a complex system,
- experimental study: means of measurement and software for experimental modal analysis.

Vibration reduction methodology:
- actions on the source of the vibrations,
- actions on the transmission of vibrations,
- actions on the system's own response.

Conditional and provisional maintenance of rotating machinery:
- types of defects in rotating machinery,
- choice and limitations of monitoring indicators and diagnostic tools.

These chapters are complemented by the presentation of frequency analysis tools: Fourier series and digital Fourier transform, used in the experimental characterization of systems and diagnosis of defects in rotating machines.

The theoretical knowledge on the characterization of the vibrations of a system is implemented during three sessions of practical work, relating respectively to the use:
- means of measurement,
- a modal analysis software,
- finite element calculations software.

These three sessions make it possible to compare, on the same system, the vibratory characteristics extracted from measurements with those calculated from a modeling of the system.

The first session is devoted to the general presentation of the method followed by an example of application on the ANSYS WorkBench software. This example will illustrate the different options and the different stages of a topological optimization.
The following 3 sessions will be devoted to carrying out a project in a group and independently. This project will consist of the following stages:
Mechanical characterization of the material used: creation and 3D printing of test specimens which will be subjected to a tensile test. The anisotropy of the material can be highlighted and characterized.
Topological optimization: search for an optimized solution for a given load case. The influence of parameters such as mesh size, boundary conditions or optimization methods should be evaluated.
Numerical validation of the optimized structure (simulation on the optimized structure)
3D printing of the optimized structure and mechanical test on this part. The experimental results will be compared with the numerical results; we will then try to explain any differences.

The course resumes the basics of rigid body mechanic before introducing less common notions such as shocks theory and vibration analysis.
The movement is studied independently of its causes first. The kinematic and the associated torsor are introduced. The course focus and the point before extrapolating the results to generic solids.
Mechanical actions and their modelling is presented in order to apply the dynamic notions.
Newton's laws are introduced et allow to link the movement to it cause.
Energy is approached as well as the basics of shock theory, which is at the limit of the rigid body hypothesis.
Finally, the vibration analysis and it matrix formalism is presented and applied at two degress of freedom systems.
Exercises are done after each notion to put into practice formula and method introduced in the course.
