Roads, Railways and Airports - module This module aims at providing basic knowledge in the geometrical design and construction of transportation infrastructures such as roads, railways and airports. Particular attention will be given to the safe interaction between moving entities and transportation infrastructures and, more generally, to expected performance levels from the functional and structural point of view. Water Infrastructures - module

Roads, Railways and Airports - module The aim of this module is to develop the ability to recognize the technical characteristics of transport infrastructure, as well as the ability to identify the reference theories for evaluating their performance. Topics will be presented to develop strong analytical skills, useful for solving problems with typical professional implications. The module will allow students to acquire the following skills: - ability to analyze transport demand for the purpose of pre-design the infrastructure and its components in functional and structural terms; - ability to evaluate the interaction between moving entities and infrastructures (roads, railways and airports) for geometric design purposes; - ability to assess physical and mechanical characteristics of construction materials. - knowing how to make and motivate design choices, - ability to identify the orders of magnitude of the numerical values that characterize the system variables, -ability to represent in graphic form the design entities; - knowing technical terminology Water Infrastructures - module

Modalità di esame: Prova scritta (in aula); Prova orale obbligatoria;

Exam: Written test; Compulsory oral exam;

... The written test will be composed of closed-answer tests and exercises to attest the ability of students to apply the concepts objective of the course. The oral exam will be dedicated to verify the knowledge acquired from theoretical lectures. The final grade will derive from the average between the written and the oral part. To pass the exam it is necessary to reach a sufficient grade for both the written and the oral part of the exam.

Gli studenti e le studentesse con disabilità o con Disturbi Specifici di Apprendimento (DSA), oltre alla segnalazione tramite procedura informatizzata, sono invitati a comunicare anche direttamente al/la docente titolare dell'insegnamento, con un preavviso non inferiore ad una settimana dall'avvio della sessione d'esame, gli strumenti compensativi concordati con l'Unità Special Needs, al fine di permettere al/la docente la declinazione più idonea in riferimento alla specifica tipologia di esame.
