The study programmes with the given course

Objective of the course – aims of the course unit: To link students' knowledge gained in descriptive geometry and computers courses and add its linkage to architect's work.
Objective of the course – learning outcomes and competences: Semestral work - analysis and computer model of a chosen building
Prerequisites: Knowledge of 2D computer modelling (e.g. AutoCAD).
Course contents (annotation): Students will be acquainted with modelling of geometric objects (curves, surfaces and solids) using computers, with its geometric properties and examples of its usage in architecture. The form of the course is lectures and seminars. The course is not a software course.
Teaching methods and criteria: Teaching methods depend on the type of course unit as specified in the article 7 of BUT Rules for Studies and Examinations.
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes: Study will be evaluated on the base of the semestral work.
Course curriculum: 1st week: Introduction. Geometry basics. 2nd week: Point. Curves. Lines. 3rd week: Conics 4th week: Catenaries, sinusoids, spirals, cycloids. 5th week: Free form curves. 6th week: Surfaces 7th week: Geometric representation of surfaces: extruded and swept surfaces. 8th week: Geometric representation of surfaces: surfaces of revolution, helix surfaces, ruled surfaces. 9th week: Free form representation of surfaces. 10th week: Mesh representation of surfaces. Solids. 11-12th week: Final assignment. 13th week: Evaluation. 3Dtest.
Specification of controlled education, way of implementation and compensation for absences: Presence at lectures and seminars results from the duty to consult with the teacher about the seminar assignment
