MEEG23342 — (was 2233) Solid Modeling and Design
Add to Bookmarks One hours lecture. Two hours laboratory per week. Two credit hours. Was MEEG 2233. Modern engineers use computer-aided design and engineering (CAD/CAE) programs to improve the design process. Introduces the concepts of three-dimensional part modeling and assembly for analysis and manufacturing. The principle method for design communication is through two-dimensional standard drawing practices which can be easily extracted from three-dimensional models. Covers the basic nomenclature to allow engineers to communicate with manufacturers. Some focus will be applied to the intersection of tolerances, as expressed on engineering drawings, with design and manufacturing processes. Will introduce how to interface solid models with CAE simulations, such as a Finite Element Analysis program.
