Geometric Modeling for Mechanical Design

Catalog description

Credits 2. 1 Lecture Hour. 2 Lab Hours. Foundations of geometric modeling as applied to mechanical design through use of modern computer-aided design (CAD) and physical prototyping tools; basics of systematic design methodology; geometric visualization concepts: multiview orthographic, isometric, oblique, perspective; three-dimensional representations, surface and solid modeling; dimensioning and tolerancing; rapid prototyping using 3D printing. Prerequisite: Mechanical engineering major; grade of C or better in ENGR 102 .
