Syllabus

Lessons are realized in seven four-hour blocks once every 14 days:
1. and 2. Solution of vehicle impact in the environment of simulation program - impact parameters and their influence on the spray motion of the vehicle
3. and 4. Simulation of real traffic accident
5. and 6. Elaboration of semestral project - solution of real traffic accident including subsequent assessment of the possibility of collision avoidance
7. Submission of semestral work, evaluation.
