Learning Outcomes
1.
Apply the CAD/CAM systems in engineering tasks, and their
use to create geometric models of simple parts.
2.
Explain the basic concepts of 3D modeling and the effective
use of CAD/CAM systems in geometric modeling.
3.
Apply the theory and implementation of curves and surfaces,
their implementation by CAD/CAM systems, and their use in
geometric modelling.
4.
Integrate the concepts of solid modelling, the use of
primitives in geometric modelling, the basics of Boolean
operations and the representation schemes of solids.
5.
Justify the use of assembly modelling and geometric
transformations, their use in geometric modelling and
engineering drawings.
