Course objectives:
|
The aim of the course is to provide students with knowledge of basic functions and parameters of ground vehicles (road and rail vehicles), with the general calculations related to the design of these vehicles and their main components and of the main conceptual and constructional structures of these vehicles and their components. The acquired knowledge is the basic information about the construction of these vehicles and it should be the starting point for the detailed study of the construction of theses types of vehicles
|
Requirements on student
|
Credit based on the active work on the exercises and the fulfillment of conditions set by the teacher at the beginning of the semester (submission of the correctly prepared semester work and fulfillment of the specified minimum attendance at the seminars).
Exam - combined exam (written and oral) related to the teaching material included in the lectures.

Content
|
The subject KKS / KVO is a basic subject of the construction of vehicles in the Master's study in the field of Transport and Handling Technology. It is divided into a section devoted to the issue of rail vehicles and the issue of road vehicles. The basic vehicle functional units are discussed in terms of their theory and rough construction (in the case of road vehicles the e.g. components of the chassis, the components of the traction power transmission system, the bodyworks, the assistance and comfort systems, in the case of the rail vehicles e.g. the vehicle bogies, suspensions, brakes, etc.).
