Learning outcomes
The course aims at studying intermodal systems for the transportation of goods and of their performance, which is the consequence of the interactions between the different components - both operational and infrastructural. The course aims at training engineers capable of tackling and solving problems in complex systems, with multidisciplinary skills and approaches. Students will acquire a solid preparation in the field of transportation systems engineering for the planning of activities in freight transportation nodes and for the management of freight and commodity flows. Topics to be covered are methods and models of design, planning, evaluation of the performance and impacts of operations relating to freight transportation, optimization of freight transportation operations according to criteria of environmental sustainability and economic efficiency, in a systemic approach. The main objectives are: 1) Ability to design and plan transportation systems from a systemic perspective and with a modelling and multidisciplinary approach in a changing context. 2) Ability to identify advantages and limits of applicability of scenarios and design solutions, with particular reference to the availability of resources and the effects of the intervention. 3) Ability to address the issues of transport systems engineering on a professional level, as well as to understand the link between transport systems, energy sources, infrastructures and territory.
