Applied research

This page describes the applied research carried out by the Department of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (Institute of Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Polytechnical University).

Nuclear Power Engineering

Researches for the nuclear industry are held in USTC "Technical diagnostics and reliability of nuclear and thermal power plants", headed by Yuri Yevgenyevich Karyakin, Professor of the Department of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics.

Resonance Enhanced Drilling, RED

The Department of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics and The University of Aberdeen have been collaborating on the topic of rock massif destruction under the action of resonance drilling since 1999. Read more...

High-speed photography

The list of projects carried out for Weatherford, Radar MMS, Factoria LS, "KOSMOS-NEFT-GAS" etc. by the Department of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics:

  • Vibrations of the moving parts of the aircraft
  • Dynamics of multiphase flows
  • Cleaning of metal surfaces by a vacuum arc
  • Arc discharges
  • Motions of athletes

Oil and Gas

Employees of the Department of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics conducted research for the leading oilfield services companies in the following areas:

  • Simulation of hydraulic fracturing and related technological and geomechanical processes
  • Studying of the dynamics of proppant in hydraulic fracturing
  • Studying of the rheological properties of multiphase mixtures

I played around with Mars data last year for an Analysis of Landscapes class, and wrote up a description of how to bring it in to ArcGIS 9, which was not strdrghtfoiwara. Things might have improved with 10, but in case it might still be useful for someone I’ve linked to it.If someone can address any improvements in 10 that make this easier, I’d be “curious” to learn more about it!– Andy

Fracture

Employees of the Department of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics developed an original technique of modeling the formation and development of cracks in solids, based on the method of particle dynamics. This method was used to describe such processes as:

  • Percussive drilling
  • Spall fracture
  • Hydraulic fracturing
  • Punching of a deformable barrier with a striker
  • Formation and development of fatigue cracks

Key publications on this topics are provided here.

Construction mechanics

Employees of the Department of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics investigated the stability of thin-walled structures for JORIS IDE.

Extreme sports

The Department of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics in association with AlpineReplay ltd. (USA) are developing sensors, software and mobile applications for use in extreme sports (snowboarding, skateboarding, skiing, surfing, etc.).
