The course describes the main aspects regarding the safety and security of transport systems and networks, providing the methodological tools to assess their reliability.
The goal of the course consists of providing the basic knowledge about methodologies and technologies for safety in transport systems and networks, and the methodological tools for assessing reliability. At the end of the course, the student will be able to discuss safety/security and reliability principles and standards and to apply methods and models for the assessment of safety and reliability in the context of transport systems and networks.
At the end of the course the student will have acquired the fundamental notions for the assessment of safety and security aspects in the context of transport systems through the application of different alternative methodologies.
The course takes place in a classroom. During the lessons, the professor shows slides (which are made then available to the students through Aulaweb) on the various topics of the course and, in some cases, she uses the blackboard to explain in detail some specific contents.
The teaching materials are provided by the professor on AulaWeb
Ricevimento: To fix an appointment send an email to alice.consilvio@unige.it
The lessons will take place during the first semester according to the official timetable:
https://corsi.unige.it/en/corsi/11920/students-timetable
The timetable for this course is available here: EasyAcademy
The exam consists of an oral test.
Students with learning disorders ("Disturbi Specifici di Apprendimento", DSA) will be allowed to use specific modalities and supports that will be determined on a case-by-case basis in agreement with the delegate of the Engineering courses in the Committee for the Inclusion of Students with Disabilities.
The student's assessment is carried out through an oral test in which the student is asked to illustrate the theoretical topics of the course. The student must demonstrate that he/she has acquired a sufficient knowledge of the topics illustrated in class and that he/she is able tto define and discuss simple problems in the modeling and analysis of transport systems from the safety and security point of view.
It is mandatory to register for the exam through the online services at least 5 days in advance.
