Solid Modeling With Inventor

Updated for use with the latest version of Autodesk Inventor, this 3-D approach to design emphasizes how modeling is inherently different from 2-D computer-aided drawing. "Guided Tours" walk readers through the new features of Autodesk Inventor, allowing them to learn by doing. Beginning with a brief introduction to the design process in the context of concurrent engineering, this book covers such topics as the latest version of Autodesk Inventor's work environment, file management, sketching, revolution, applying and modeling 3-D constraints, features and feature-based modeling, lofting, sweeping, and extracting data from 3-D models. For engineers involved in drawing, graphics, and CAD (computer-aided drawing.Sorby, Sheryl A. is the author of 'Solid Modeling With Inventor', published 2007 under ISBN 9780131777224 and ISBN 013177722X.
