Pierre DEHOMBREUX
Teaching
In charge of the courses of machine design (including power transmission systems), reliability and maintenance of industrial equipment. Mechanical design projects for engineering students are the core of his teaching activity.
Research
The current research activities are related to the estimation of residual lifetime of industrial equipment, from physics-of-failure models, statistical analysis or degradation measurements, in the perspective of an optimal predictive maintenance policy. Research programs have been developed in this field for different industrial contexts (ALSTOM, Arcelor-Mittal, Baxter, CMI, Maintenance Partners, NGK, Telenet, …). Reviewer for some scientific journals (International Journal of Precision Engineering and Manufacturing, …), international conferences (IFAC SafeProcess, …) and research agencies (Fonds de Recherche du Québec, …).
