DESN 223 - Parametric Solid Modeling
PROGRAM: Design Technology
CREDIT HOURS MIN: 3
LECTURE HOURS MIN: 2
LAB HOURS MIN: 2
DATE OF LAST REVISION: Fall, 2011
This course builds upon previous CAD experience and focuses on solid modeling techniques and design intent utilizing parametric solid modeling CAD software. Students will use parametric CAD software to create solid geometry for individual parts, create assemblies from the individual parts and then produce engineering working drawings from the solid models. Topics include sketching, part modeling, and assemblies.
MAJOR COURSE LEARNING OBJECTIVES: Upon successful completion of this course the student will be expected to:
- Explain the different approaches to 3D modeling.
- Create sketch-based features.
- Choose an appropriate modeling scheme based on design intent.
- Apply constraints in a parametric model and assembly to capture and implement desired design intent.
- Create part models.
- Edit models.
- Create reference geometry.
- Managing parent/child relationships.
- Assemble components with constraints.
- Apply materials and extract basic engineering properties.
- Create and modify views for design communication (exploded, cutaway, etc.).
- Generate a complete set of working drawings.
- Create photo-realistic rendering of parts and assemblies.
- Apply aspects of color, lighting, and texture.
- Generate an animation.
