92870 - DESIGN, MONITORING AND MANAGEMENT OF AIRPORT AND RAILWAY

Conoscenze e abilità da conseguire

Al termine del corso lo studente conoscerà i temi relativi alla progettazione di una infrastruttura ferroviaria dal punto di vista geometrico e strutturale; alla progettazione delle pavimentazioni, la geometria, la segnaletica e le infrastrutture di servizio "air side" per le infrastrutture aeroportuali. Sarà sviluppato anche il tema delle connessioni tra i diversi mezzi di trasporto in ambit urbano con particolare riferimento alla multimodalità connessa all'accesibilità dei nodi.

Contenuti

Once completed the course, the student owns the required knowledge to design an air-port infrastructure, from both a geometric and structural standpoint. She/he knows the main elements that make up the two macro areas of the airport, Airside and Land side. In particular, for the Air side, he/she is able to design the pavement, the geometry, the signaling system, and all services for airport infrastructure. For the Land side and airport Terminal systems, he/she is capable of analyzing the connection between the different means of transport in the urban context with particular reference to the accessibility of nodes.

AIRPORT CONSTRUCTIONS

The course is structured in two parts: the first concerning the Terminal System and Land-side System, the second concerning the Air-side System. The contents concern the planning and development of terminal systems, land-side of an airport infrastructure and the air-side area of an airport infrastructure, with a focus on the following topics:

• ·national and international sector regulations
• elements of airport management
• programmatic tools for the development of an airport infrastructure
• basic notions for the design of the terminal system: development of the infrastructural subsystems
• development of the landside system and interconnected facilities
• airport system: the classification of airports, the characteristics of the elements of an airport infrastructure, principles of aerodynamics and flight mechanics;
• the runway: the choice of orientation, the determination of the length, the characteristic distances, the use of the runway by a landing aircraft;
• airport pavement;
• ·obstacle delimitation surfaces;
• systems supporting flight operations.

Metodi didattici

Theoretical lessons and practical exercises. During the course, a project regarding the terminal and the airport runway will be implemented and carried out in a group of maximum 3 people. During the course, industry professionals will be invited to bring their experience on the course topics to the students.

Modalità di verifica e valutazione dell'apprendimento

Written exam with part of the evaluation obtained on the project. The exam is passed by achieving a pass in both parts.

Strumenti a supporto della didattica
