20810170-1 - MARITIME TRANSPORTATION AND INFRASTRUCTURES-A

The main objective of the course is providing a specific knowledge for the analysis and the design of the functional characteristics of the components of the maritime transport system (ships, infrastructures and transport services). The course explores the study of these elements pertaining to the maritime transport system and the seaports. The study includes also the management of these components and the logistic issues.
The first part of the course is an introduction to the transport engineering for providing the basic knowledge about the models used for the representation of the transport demand and supply, as well as the related interactions (assignment models).
The last part of the course provides additional knowledge about problems related with the maritime transport system as the methods and the models for the management of the freight transport demand, the analysis and the design of the access transport system to the seaside infrastructures, in particular considering the aspects related to the environmental impacts during operation of services.
