Three-Dimensional Modeling for Design

Course Description

Three-dimensional modeling for engineering design. This course will emphasize the use of CAD on computer workstations as a major graphical analysis and design tool. Students develop design skills, and practice applying these skills. A group design project, design and fabrication (3D print) of the tower and rotor is required. Hands-on creativity, teamwork, and effective communication are emphasized.

Course Objectives

Enhance critical thinking and design skills; emphasize communication skills, both written and oral. Develop teamwork skills; offer experience in hands-on, creative engineering projects. Reinforce the societal context of engineering practice; develop early abilities in identifying, formulating, and solving engineering problems. Introduce computer-based solid, parametric, and assembly modeling as a tool for engineering design.

Student Learning Outcomes

Understand the basics of rapid prototyping, in particular 3D printing. Understand the engineering design process and the implementation of different design phases. Create a 3D solid model of a complicated object with high degree of confidence. Extract 2D orthographic views from the 3D model for fabrication. Specify the proper dimensions, according to industry standards, for parts to be fabricated. Extract section and auxiliary views. Understand the basics of assembly and associative constraints. Work effectively as a member of a design team.
