| Objectives | |
|---|---|
| MODULE 1: MARITIME HYDRAULICS Expected learning outcomes and competences to be acquired To learn the basic elements of the theories of wave motion and its interaction with the coast in terms of both the evaluation of problems and possible design solutions. Knowledge and comprehension skills. To acquire knowledge for the analysis of the major phenomena influencing the formation, off-shore movement and interaction with the foreshore of sea waves, through the use of simplified and complex techniques that also involve the use of a computer: measurement and frequency analysis of swells, wave-break, general principles of coastal dynamics, longitudinal and transversal transport, etc. Ability to apply knowledge and understanding. Understanding of the main aspects of wave motion and modern analysis tools, with the ability to develop elaborations preparatory to the design of maritime works. Autonomy of judgement. Ability to analyse real wave data. Ability to carry out simple meteomarine analyses; understanding of the basic processes of littoral solid transport and ability to carry out simple evaluations. Communication skills. Clearly and unambiguously communicate knowledge, methods and conclusions related to wave modelling issues, from offshore to inshore, to interlocutors with specialist training, basic concepts to non-specialists. Ability to learn. Knowing how to apply the knowledge acquired and being able to independently learn new developments in knowledge. MODULE 2: PORTS AND COASTAL DEFENCE Intended learning outcomes and competences to be acquired To acquire knowledge and mastery of the principles of maritime engineering, underlying port and littoral systems, by studying and understanding textbooks and scientific publications. Knowledge and understanding. To acquire the necessary knowledge for the analysis of the major phenomena that influence the interaction of waves with the coast and the works on it, through the use of simplified and complex techniques that also involve the use of computers. Learning the basic elements of design theories for port works, coastal defence and dynamic management of the coastal area. Ability to apply knowledge and understanding. Understanding of the main aspects of wave motion and modern analysis tools, with the ability to develop design elaborations of maritime works. Autonomy of judgement. Ability to gather and integrate knowledge in the field of maritime engineering, port systems and littorals, in order to manage complexity and integrate limited information for the purpose of non-technical judgements. Communication skills. Communicate clearly and unambiguously knowledge, methods and conclusions related to maritime, port and coastal systems engineering issues to interlocutors with specialist training, basic concepts to non-specialist interlocutors. Ability to learn. To be able to apply the acquired knowledge and to be able to independently learn new developments in knowledge. |

|---|---|
| THE EXAM TEST IS AIMED AT ASSESSING THE STUDENT'S ABILITY TO LEARN THE FUNDAMENTAL CONTENT OF THE COURSE. THE VOTE, EXPRESSED IN THIRTIES WITH POSSIBLE PRAISE, WILL DEPEND ON THE MATURITY ACQUIRED IN KNOWLEDGE AND EXPOSURE. IT WILL BE ASSESSED THROUGH AN ORAL INTERVIEW AIMED AT ASKING THE LEVEL OF KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING REACHED BY THE STUDENT ON THE CONTENT OF THE COURSE, AS WELL AS VERIFYING THE EXPOSURE SKILLS, BY APPLYING THE APPROPRIATE AUTHENTICATION CAPACITY. FOR THE PURPOSE OF THE PRAISE WILL BE TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT: - THE QUALITY OF THE EXPOSURE, IN TERMS OF USE OF APPROPRIATE SCIENTIFIC LANGUAGE - THE SKILL OF TRANSVERSAL CORRELATION BETWEEN THE DIFFERENT TOPICS OF THE COURSE - PROVEN AUTONOMY OF JUDGMENT. |
