Further information
Power electronics underpin key innovations that will be essential for Europe's green transition. Used for electricity, power electronic device applications from automobiles to photovoltaic electrical systems.
Type of Assessment
Intermediate tests. The intermediate tests consist, in each case, of 3 exercises aimed at verifying knowledge on three-phase systems, on electric machines, on electric drives.
CT1#B049 Written technical communication (reports, deliverables) CT3#B049 Development of an adequate expression and technical discussion of own arguments
CT4#B049 Graphic representation and communication (drafting of diagrams, graphs and tables)
CT7#B049 To respect commitments and deadlines
Oral interview
The oral exam consists of an interview aimed at evaluating the student's communication skills and at bringing out the knowledge of the topics discussed and discussed in the course. The students also have the chance to prepare group designs.

CT8 Communication through presentations and web systems
Verified knowledge
CC5#B049 Knowledge and understanding of the principles of industrial electro-technics, electrical machinery, industrial robotics and controls used in industrial plants.
CC10#B049 Knowledge and understanding of applicable engineering techniques and methods (and their limitations) in non-technical fields.
Applicative and Cognitive Skills to be verified
CA5#B049
Applying knowledge and understanding related to the most appropriate methods of analysis, modelling, verification and experimentation to design, analyze and test machines and plants. This includes: the interpretation and drafting of mechanical parts and machines (also using dedicated CAD systems); the sizing and the functional and structural verification of components and mechanical groups subjected to static and fatigue stress; the functional setting of the design of a mechanical system, applying the principles of kinematics and static principles; analysis of the characteristics of metallic and polymeric materials for the production; the choice of the best production process aimed at the creation of mechanical components; analysis and design of production systems including the study of reliability, safety and economic and environmental sustainability.
