Description
CRC Press Computer Aided Design 1st Edition 2022 Hardbound by Nyemba, Wilson R
The book comprehensively discusses principles, techniques, research activities,applications and case studies of computer-aided design in a single volume.The textbook will serve as ideal study material for undergraduate, andgraduate students in a multitude of engineering disciplines.The book* Discusses techniques for wireframe, surface and solid modelling includingpractical cases and limitations.* Each chapter contains solved examples and unsolved exercises.* Includes research case studies and practical examples in enabling theuser to link academic theory to engineering practice.* Highlights the ability to convert graphic to non-graphic informationsuch as in drawing up bills of materials in practice.* Discusses important topics including constructive solid geometry,Boolean operations on solid primitives and Boolean algebra.This text covers different aspects of computer-aided design, from the basictwo-dimensional constructions through modifications, use of layers anddimensioning to advanced aspects such as three-dimensional modelling andcustomization of the package to suit different applications and disciplines.It further discusses important concepts including orthographic projections,isometric projections, 3D wireframe modelling, 3D surface modelling, solidsof extrusion and solids of revolution. It will serve as ideal study materialfor undergraduate, and graduate students in the fields of mechanical engineering,industrial engineering, electrical and electronic engineering, civiland construction engineering, aerospace engineering and manufacturingengineering.
