Knowledge
The student who successfully completes the course will have the ability to analyze linear electric networks by using general methods in steady state or in transient behaviour. He or she will be able to describe the behaviour of multiterminal electric components in terms of voltage-current relationship and to manage the equivalent circuits to reduce the computation complexity.
Assessment criteria of knowledge
In the written exam (3 hours), the student must demonstrate his/her ability in solving a number (typically 4) of simple exercises covering the most important topics of the course.
During the oral exam the student must be able to demonstrate his/her knowledge of the basic principles of the circuit theory and to discuss them using the appropriate terminology.
Methods:
- Final oral exam
- Final written exam
Further information:
The final exam consists in a written exam which is a prerequisite for the oral one. The minimum allowed score at the written exam is 15/30. The weighting is: final written exam 33.3%; final oral exam 66.6%.
