Product Design Modeling using CAD/CAE : The Computer Aided Engineering Design Series

Product Design Modeling using CAD/CAE is the third part of a four-part series. It is the first book to integrate discussion of computer design tools throughout the design process. Through this book, you will: Understand basic design principles and all digital design paradigms Understand computer-aided design, engineering, and manufacturing (CAD/CAE/CAM) tools available for various design-related tasks Understand how to put an integrated system together to conduct all-digital design (ADD) Provides a comprehensive and thorough coverage of essential elements for product modeling using the virtual engineering paradigmCovers CAD/CAE in product design, including solid modeling, mechanical assembly, parameterization, product data management, and data exchange in CADCase studies and tutorial examples at the end of each chapter provide hands-on practice in implementing off-the-shelf computer design toolsProvides two projects showing the use of Pro/ENGINEER and SolidWorks to implement concepts discussed in the book
