In the framework of this postdoctoral position, the successful candidate will have to develop the unified approach for Maintenance Optimisation with a focus on the added value of E&SHM:
• Selection of study cases and identification of pertinent parameters / KPIs and associated uncertainties
• Definition of a simplified model for degradation processes
• System reliability with maintenance updating from E&SHM
• Computation Benefit of E&SHM: added value of E&SHM and inspection
Postdoc “Failure modes and instrumentation of submarine dynamic cables, in the field of Offshore Renewable Energies”
This work embraces:
• Definition of the need for monitoring depending of the required performance (Key Performance Indicators) and the consequence. Linking these needs to limit states (Degradation or Extreme)
• Identification of technologies of monitoring and inspection from existing reports and projects with a focus on their reliability and maintenance or service life time
• Proposition of strategies for monitoring with/without redundancy and with/without inspection
• Development of the computational tools for reliability updating from inspection and monitoring, and for maintenance planning based on reliability
