Goals/Objectives CAD design for all areas of applied engineering, including mechanical and
architectural. Overview of value of 3D CAD designs because of all the useful
of the course:
analysis tools. Examples: (a) Automatic stress analysis and fill analysis. (b)
SolidWorks Cosmos pictorial stress analysis can be done with ---no--- prerequisite
knowledge of how stresses are calculated.
CO2: Understand concept of reusing and modifying things that are in your (a)
personal and (b) professional parts library. Understand concept of "never waste time
drawing something twice."
CO3: Understand design of entities, by doing series of tutorial real-world examples.
CO4: Understand how easy it is to obtain computer solutions related to analysis.
Examples: Cosmos stress analysis of oven rack.
