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).

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

Data Science Research Projects

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

Text processing (Natural Language processing). Effective processing of huge volumes of voice or text messages information by making use of Natural Language Processing and Sentiment Analysis, which utilize all the powers of cutting-edge technologies:

  • extracts specific data from long texts (e.g. articles, books, bills)
  • automatically processes invoices, orders, contracts
  • identifies the writer’s emotions and recognizes hate speech
  • improves customer experience with chatbots and virtual assistants

Predictive Analytics. Predictive analytics for organizations incorporates the power of Big Data, AI and Machine Learning (ML) technologies with using the available historical data:

  • study available data and analyze clients’ behaviors to discover patterns
  • make predictions and decisions based on historical records
  • reduces churn by identifying the clients who want to leave
  • increases sales by suggesting what the client wants to buy and determines how much they will buy
  • identifies employees who are likely to leave the company
  • predicts demand for resources, product, and inventory
  • identifies the risk of breakdowns, failures, malfunctions, and errors

Anomaly Detection. Machine Learning based Anomaly Detection implementation for data quality, cybersecurity, fraud detection, and other such business use cases discovering similarities, anomalies and outliers in data, also predicting upcoming possible anomalies in the future.

Computer Vision for remote sensing. Deep learning based approach for classification and semmantic segmentation of remote sensing data obtained from satellites and UAV

Diseases diagnosis. Medical images analysis for diseases diagnosis based on

  • X-ray
  • MRI
  • CT

Face recognition. Automatic staff and secutity control systems based on computer vision approach

Oil well receive pressure prediction Automatic software for prediction of oil well receive pressure based on machine learning algorithms

Prediction of crack propogation profile during hydraulic fracturing.

Prediction of the mechanical properties of materials.

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...

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.

Partners and customers

The following Russian and foreign companies are the partners and customers of the department:
