151-0062-10L Engineering Tool: Computer-Aided Design Methods
Semester | Herbstsemester 2018 |
Dozierende | T. Stankovic, K. Shea |
Periodizität | jährlich wiederkehrende Veranstaltung |
Lehrsprache | Englisch |
Kommentar | Die Ingenieur-Tool-Kurse sind ausschliesslich für MAVT-Bachelor-Studierende. Maximale Teilnehmerzahl: 25. Es darf nur ein Ingenieur-Tool-Kurs pro Semester belegt werden. |
Kurzbeschreibung | Participants will learn about the Computer-Aided Design fundamentals and methods that are necessary to model complex technical products. The focus will be placed on feature-based and parametric modelling that is common to all modern CAD tools used in mechanical engineering design. |
Lernziel | CAD knowledge and skills will be further developed to enable students to recognize both the advantages and the limitations of current Computer-Aided Design tools. Examples of how to build feature-based and parametric models including design automation will be given along with common pitfalls. After taking the course students should be able to independently create effective feature-based and parametric models of mechanical parts. |
