Seb,
	Considering your goal; can I suggest an alternative?
Solving for t in terms of (u,a,b,x) and varying u ?
Removing the separate zero surface (u-t)^x 
And assumes (a*%e^(b*u)+u)^2 >0

Like so:

(%i35) solve(factor((a*%e^(b*u)+u)^2*f1/((u-t)^x)),t);
(%o35) [t=-((a*%e^(b*u)+u)*x-a*b*u*%e^(b*u)-u)/(a*b*%e^(b*u)+1)]

So instead of scanning u(t) you do t(u).
If need be, I have an inversion algorithm to produce 
U= Taylor series in t  with a,b,x constant.
But it typically only has a finite radius of convergence around the
expansion point.  If the t(u) a,b,x surface looks smooth then it should work
okay though.
