Solid Modeling with Inventor

Designed for undergraduate courses in Engineering Drawing, Engineering Graphics, and Computer-Aided Drawing (CAD). Based on a 3-D approach to design, this text emphasizes how modeling is inherently different from 2-D CAD. The text also cover topics such as, the version of Autodesk Inventor work environment, file management, sketching, and others.

Designed for undergraduate courses in Engineering Drawing, Engineering Graphics, and Computer-Aided Drawing (CAD).

Updated for use with the latest version of Autodesk Inventor. Based on a 3-D approach to design, this text 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 text proceeds to cover topics such as the latest version of Autodesk Inventor 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.
