Principles of CAD/CAM/CAE Systems

Principles of CAD/CAM/CAE Systems

Pages : 600
Size : 29 MB

With the dramatic changes in computing power and wider availability of software tools for design and production, engineers are now using CAD/CAM/CAE systems for everyday tasks, not just for demonstrations.

International competition, de-creased availability of skilled labor, and increased emphasis on quality are also forcing manufacturers to use CAD/CAM/CAE systems to automate their design and production processes.

As a result, educators in engineering schools are experi-encing a new pressure to change the way they teach design-related courses in order
to equip their students to interact with CAD/CAM/CAE systems and have a knowl-edge of their fundamental principles.

The objective of this book is to present the fundamental principles and
concepts underlying CAD/CAM/CAE systems rather than explain the use of specific systems.

Some people may argue that it is enough to teach a student how to use ex-isting systems or even a specific popular system because the student as an engineer will be the user–not the developer-of such systems.

However, in order to use ex-isting software effectively and create usable macros or programs for automated de-sign, the user must understand both the computing environment and the underlying system principles.

With this knowledge of the fundamentals, the student can quickly learn a specific system within a specific environment and use it to its maxi-mum capability.
