Course detail

Parametric Modeling - Inventor, Catia, Rhinoceros

FSI-ZM1Acad. year: 2011/2012

The goal of the course is make the acquaintance of common properties of CAD systems and to attach some practical experiences of 3D modeling of parts assemblies. Based on programs of Autodesk – the Inventor and Solidworks the students will acquired with solid design and of possible ways of design used in practice.
