Solid Modeling With Pro/Engineer

Designed for interest in Engineering Drawing, Engineering Graphics, and Computer-Aided Drawing (CAD). Based on a 3-D approach to design, this piece emphasizes how modeling is inherently different from 2-D CAD. Beginning with a brief introduction to the design process in the context of concurrent engineering, this book proceeds to cover topics such as the Pro/ENGINEER 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. FEATURES/BENEFITS Each chapter includes a set of "Guided Tours" that walk users through features of Pro/ENGINEER. Encourages the reader "to learn by doing." Chapters conclude with an ample number of drawing problems. Help reinforce topics from the chapter. Solid Modeling with Pro/ENGINEERcan be used on its own, or as a supplementary text to3-D Visualization for Engineering Graphics, or any other Prentice Hall Graphics book.Sorby, Sheryl A. is the author of 'Solid Modeling With Pro/Engineer' with ISBN 9780134901787 and ISBN 0134901789.
