City logistics technology

Ing. Ondrej Stopka, PhD.

Study guide for the course

The aim of the course is to acquaint students with the nature and solution of logistic problems of cities in different concepts of partial solutions to complex approach. Graduates will become familiar with the classic concept of city logistics solutions as flows of goods and other materials to the centers of large cities, widespread concept involving all relevant components of transport in the whole agglomeration, the issue of freight and public transport, including its integration as an important part of urban logistics and related logistics and environmental environment. Graduates will be able to identify strengths and weaknesses in transport in towns and cities, can solve the task scheduling and optimization of transport and traffic flows in cities. They will be able to define and describe the properties of both passenger and freight transport, environment and transport technology, is able to define the basic parameters of a comprehensive solution to the issue.
