| The
Fundamentals of Design course instructs students
in the advanced techniques of Pro/ENGINEER
for capturing design intelligence. It builds
upon the basics covered in Introduction to
Pro/ENGINEER.
Some previously discussed topics such as
Part and Assembly Modeling are expanded
in this course. Some other aspects of Mechanical
design such as assembly management techniques,
creating models via surfacing and style
features and working with skeletons are
newly introduced.
Troubleshooting and managing existing models
by tackling references and interdependencies
is a driving consideration for this course
and not just the creation of new and better
models using advanced tools.
A highlight of the course is a hands-on
Project to be completed in class with the
guidance of the instructor. This meticulously
designed Project will hone user skills and
impart an understanding of the practical
importance of the Top-Down Design Approach
to mechanical design.
Upon successful completion of this course
and the Project, each student will exhibit
a demonstrated competence in a comprehensive
range of Pro/ENGINEER skills and techniques. |
