Description
The Locomotive Engineering: Train Fundamentals Course is a multidisciplinary course where you will study the fundamental concepts regarding the Engineering and Operation of Trains, including physics topics, mechanics, materials, transmission, engine operation and more. My intention is that you fully understand the main topics regarding the Design and Engineering of Locomotives and other vehicles, so that you grasp clearly how to design Cars and how to size their components and choose their materials. The course is aimed at providing a solid background in Locomotive Engineering so that you can scale up your knowledge in the topic and gain confidence in your own skills. The course is about uniting Engineering and Technical skills for an overall improved know-how of Trains. The structure of the Course is the following: IntroductionFundamentals of Locomotive EngineeringSteam, Diesel and Electric Locomotives DiscussionLocomotive Components and SystemsAerodynamics and ThermodynamicsLocomotive Innovation and TechnologyWe will discuss topics such as the design of the Locomotives as they evolved over time and current trends, the forces acting on trains including aerodynamics, and a deep discussion of the thermodynamics involved in their engine operations. The objectives of the Course are for you to understand the basics and some advanced concepts in the development and design of Locomotives. This will be done in a similar way as studied in Engineering schools, from the fundamental physics concepts to the real application in trains today. The concepts you will learn will enable you to work confidently in Locomotive Projects as well as to expand your knowledge in this topic. I encourage you to begin this journey to Locomotive Engineering, you won't regret it! If you have any doubts during the course feel free to contact me, I will answer as quick as possible!
