CODE 106719 ACADEMIC YEAR 2023/2024 CREDITS 9 cfu anno 2 INGEGNERIA ELETTRICA 8731 (LM-28) - GENOVA SCIENTIFIC DISCIPLINARY SECTOR ING-IND/32 LANGUAGE Italian TEACHING LOCATION GENOVA SEMESTER Annual TEACHING MATERIALS AULAWEB OVERVIEW The course introduces students to the complex interactions that globally regulate the relationships between economic growth, mobility and sustainable development. From a technological point of view, the problems related to the different uses of electrical systems in public and private mobility are summarized, highlighting in particular the aspects relating to performance, energy consumption, pollution. Some peculiarities of the railway systems are treated, also at a historical level, and particular prominence is given to planning and economic problems in local public transport. AIMS AND CONTENT LEARNING OUTCOMES Introduction to transport systems and planning policies in the field of transport on a European and national scale. Classification of transport systems. Transportation of goods and logistics. Inventory management principles. City logistics. Intermodality. Energy and transport. Analysis of the external costs of transport. Principles of the theory of locomotion. Economic analysis tools of transport systems. Main types of electric drives used in the sector. power supply systems for road, rail and marine vehicles (accumulators and fuel cells, conversion substations, catenaries, motor generators). AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES Understand the complexity of the interactions between economic development, social development and environmental preservation. Understand the technological systems present in the main transport systems, with reference to the electrical part. Approach the planning methods and economic issues in the field of transport systems. Address issues and planning systems related to local public transport. Acquire evaluation methods related to the impact of electrical systems in road transport. PREREQUISITES Knowledge of electrical matters, in particular relating to electric drives and power electronics. TEACHING METHODS Lectures and technical visits to companies in the transport and electric drive sectors.
