Educational objectives To supply the fundamental principles of classic electromagnetism and of
wave phenomena in vacuum and in matter, stressing the experimental
character of the subjects. To teach how to solve by reasoning simple
problems on the above subjects.The student must understand the phenomena related with classic
electromagnetism and with wave propagation. He must realize which
physics lows are obtained from experiments and which from mathematical
deduction. He must also learn how to apply the subjects studied to the
solution of simple problems.

Educational objectives The aim is that of providing students with some fundamental probabilistic and statistical notions, which are the basis of the logical-mathematical reasoning under uncertainty, with incomplete information. This will stimulate those critical skills which allow to face, besides "routine" problems, new problems too. In particular, students should acquire some basic notions which concern conditional and unconditional probabilities, discrete and continuous probability distributions, and statistical inference.Basic notions and theoretical results on conditional and unconditional probabilities, prevision, variance, correlation coefficient, probability density, cumulative distribution function, joint, marginal and conditional distributions, characteristic function, basic notions on statistical inference.

Educational objectives General learning outcomes
The class in Meccanica Razionale has a twofold aim: provide the
students with the methods necessary to approach the study of
constrained mechanical systems, in particular rigid body systems,
and show how a rigorous mathematical formalism can be fully
integrated within a physical theory enabling its full and deep
rigorous understanding.
Specific learning outcomes
Knowledge and understanding skill
The students learn the theory of Euclidean spaces motion (relative
motion), the kinematics and the dynamics of systems of rigid bodies,
the Lagrangian approach to the study of ideal holonomic constrained systems.
Moreover, the students will learn how to cast a mechanical problem
in a mathematical model via the ordinary differential equation theory.
Applying knowledge and understanding skill
The class completed, the student will be able to deal with
systems of rigid bodies and, in the case of ideal holonomic
constraints, write the equation of motions sufficient to the
description of all the possible motions of the system.
Moreover, the student will have learnt the methods to detect the
equilibrium position of the system and to study their stability
character.
Communication skill
The students practice their communication skills during the final
oral exam, in which they have to provide a mathematically rigorous
treatment of relevant aspects of an involved physical theory.
Learning skill
The student practice his self-learning skills by tackling and
solving many different physical problems. The student, indeed,
has to attack a physical problem on his own trying, first, to
recast the problem using the correct mathematical modelling and,
then, studying analytically and qualitatively the equations he found.

Educational objectives This course explains the fundamental methods for the analysis of single and three phase circuits, the operating principle and operating characteristics of the main electrical machinery and criteria and design methods of lines for transmission and distribution of electricity. Particular emphasis is given to those aspects and applications of intersection with the normal activities of an environamental engineer.
Risultati di apprendimento attesi (Inglese):After completing this course the student will have a basic preparation that will enable understanding of the phenomena associated with the generation, transmission and use of electricity and will be able to evaluate the performance of the main electrical machinery, in relation to specific needs and know the major problems associated with their use.

Educational objectives In the frame of continuum mechanics the fundamental equations ruling the motion of fluids are developped for no-viscous
and viscous flows. Further one-dimension representation schemes are proposed in order to solve the design problems concerning fluid motion in pipe and in channes.

Educational objectives The course provides the theoretical basis of structural engineering by illustrating
theoretical models and practical tools for the analysis of structural systems (mainly those
composed by beams), and examining their equilibrium, compatibility, strength and stability.
The topics dealt with contribute to form the necessary knowledge to identify, formulate and
solve the structural problems of the building design, and to understand the technical
language of structural engineering.
The students shall be able to analyze and solve simple structural patterns, such as
statically determinate and indeterminate systems of beams and trusses, by evaluating their
states of stress and deformation and carrying out the safety check of the cross sections.
Moreover they shall know the basics of continuum mechanics. In making judgements, the
students will acquire: 1.1 ability to choose the most appropriate theoretical models (rigid
body, elastic beam, deformable body) to address the analysis of real structures; 1.2 ability
to design and perform numerical analyses on basic structural problems, to interpret data
and draw conclusions; 1.3 Understanding the main structural analysis techniques and their
limits. In learning skills, the students will acquire: 2.1 ability to properly identify, formalize
and solve the structural problems; 2.2 ability to understand the technical terms used in
structural engineering; 2.3 skills needed to undertake further advanced courses on
structural engineering.
