GE 3602 - Solid Modeling and Design II

2 lecture hours 2 lab hours 3 credits
Course Description
In this course, more intermediate part modeling features such as sweeps, blends, surfacing and family tables are covered within parametric modeling software. Modeling of manufacturing of sheet metal parts is included. Motion analysis with simple mechanisms is introduced. The course includes a design project. (prereq: GE 3601 )
Course Learning Outcomes
Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to:
  • Model 3D parts using more complex modeling tools
  • Simulate simple mechanisms
  • Model sheet metal parts and surfaces
