Follow the step-by-step instructions and develop multiple parts and assemblies that combine machined, plastic and sheet metal components. Learn the techniques to reuse features, parts and assemblies through symmetry, patterns, copied components, Design Tables, Bills of Materials, Custom Properties and Configurations.
Desired outcomes and usage competencies are listed for each project. Follow the steps in Projects 1 - 9 to achieve the design goals.
Review Project 10 on Additive Manufacturing 3D printing and its benefits and features. Review individual features, commands and tools with the Video Instruction. The projects contain exercises. The exercises analyze and examine usage competencies. Collaborative information translates into numerous formats such as paper drawings, electronic files, rendered images and animations. On-line intelligent catalogs guide designers to the product that meets both their geometric requirements and performance functionality.
The author developed the industry scenarios by combining his own industry experience with the knowledge of engineers, department managers, vendors and manufacturers. Their responsibilities go far beyond the creation of just a 3D model.
The results from calculations are visualized and compared with theoretical solutions and empirical data. Each chapter starts with the objectives and a description of the specific problems that are studied.
End of chapter exercises are included for reinforcement and practice of what has been learned. It is intended to be a supplement to undergraduate Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer related courses.
This book can also be used to show students the capabilities of fluid flow and heat transfer simulations in freshman and sophomore courses such as Introduction to Engineering.
Both internal and external flow problems are covered and compared with experimental results and analytical solutions. Covered topics include airfoil flow, boundary layers, flow meters, heat exchanger, natural and forced convection, pipe flow, rotating flow, tube bank flow and valve flow. Theoretical aspects of FEA are also introduced as they are needed to help better understand the operation.
This text takes a hands-on, exercise-intensive approach to all the important FEA techniques and concepts. With this in mind, each lesson introduces a new set of commands and concepts, building on previous lessons.
With lots of additions and thorough review, we present abook to help professionals as well as learners in creating some of themost complex solid models. The book follows a step by step methodology.

Some of the salient features of this book are : In-Depth explanation of concepts Every new topic of this book starts with the explanation of the basicconcepts.
In this way, the user becomes capable of relating the thingswith real world. Topics Covered Every chapter starts with a list of topics being covered in thatchapter. Instruction through illustration The instructions to perform any action are provided by maximum numberof illustrations so that the user can perform the actions discussed inthe book easily and effectively.
There are about illustrationsthat make the learning process effective. Tutorial point of view At the end of concept's explanation, the tutorial make theunderstanding of users firm and long lasting. Almost each chapter ofthe book has tutorials that are real world projects. Project Free projects and exercises are provided to students for practicing. For Faculty If you are a faculty member, then you can ask for video tutorials onany of the topic, exercise, tutorial, or concept.
This book takes a hands on, exercise intensive approach to all the important parametric modeling techniques and concepts. Each lesson introduces a new set of commands and concepts, building on previous lessons. The lessons guide the user from constructing basic shapes to building intelligent solid models, assemblies and creating multi-view drawings.
Reference guides located at the front of the book and in each chapter show where these performance tasks are covered. Not only will this unified approach give your course a smoother flow, your students will also save money on their textbooks.
This text is intended to be used as a training guide for students and professionals. The chapters in this text proceed in a pedagogical fashion to guide you from constructing basic shapes to making complete sets of engineering drawings.
This text takes a hands-on, exercise-intensive approach to all the important concepts of Engineering Graphics, as well as in-depth discussions of parametric feature-based CAD techniques. This textbook contains a series of fifteen chapters, with detailed step-by-step tutorial style lessons, designed to introduce beginning CAD users to the graphics language used in all branches of technical industry. It is intended to help you establish a good basis for exploring and growing in the exciting field of Computer Aided Engineering.
It covers how to apply engineering graphics concepts, such as part prints, section views, assembly drawings, tolerancing and fasteners. It also extends these topics into the world of design. This book comes with instructional videos showing you how to perform each of the tutorials. It also comes with instructional videos showing how to complete each problem in the book. The exception to this is when a problem is open ended and each student will get different results.
After completing all the tutorials in this book, you will be able to design moderately difficult parts and assemblies in a realistic manner.
This book is perfect for a freshman design class that wishes to include realistic design problems within their curriculum. For example, Chapter two deals with the modeling of a Connecting Rod, Chapter three continues with the connecting rod to introduce the concept of configurations, Chapter four creates a part print of the connecting rod, and Chapter five wraps up the project by performing a static FEA on the connecting rod.
At the beginning of each chapter a list of prerequisite tutorials or knowledge is listed. You do not necessarily need to complete the tutorials within the book in order, but make sure that you have the prerequisite knowledge before you begin.
The focus of examples is on problems commonly found in an introductory, undergraduate, Design of Machine Elements or similarly named courses.
In order to be compatible with most machine design textbooks, this text begins with problems that can be solved with a basic understanding of mechanics of materials.
Problem types quickly migrate to include states of stress found in more specialized situations common to a design of mechanical elements course. Paralleling this progression of problem types, each chapter introduces new software concepts and capabilities.
