Book Description
The book comprehensively discusses principles, techniques, research activities,
applications and case studies of computer-aided design in a single volume.
The textbook will serve as ideal study material for undergraduate, and
graduate students in a multitude of engineering disciplines.
The book
• Discusses techniques for wireframe, surface and solid modelling including
practical cases and limitations.
• Each chapter contains solved examples and unsolved exercises.
• Includes research case studies and practical examples in enabling the
user to link academic theory to engineering practice.
• Highlights the ability to convert graphic to non-graphic information
such as in drawing up bills of materials in practice.
• Discusses important topics including constructive solid geometry,
Boolean operations on solid primitives and Boolean algebra.
This text covers different aspects of computer-aided design, from the basic
two-dimensional constructions through modifications, use of layers and
dimensioning to advanced aspects such as three-dimensional modelling and
customization of the package to suit different applications and disciplines.
It further discusses important concepts including orthographic projections,
isometric projections, 3D wireframe modelling, 3D surface modelling, solids
of extrusion and solids of revolution. It will serve as ideal study material
for undergraduate, and graduate students in the fields of mechanical engineering,
industrial engineering, electrical and electronic engineering, civil
and construction engineering, aerospace engineering and manufacturing
engineering.
