Freshman Engineering Design Graphics - Solid Modeling

圣地亚哥牧场社区学院的一年级工程专业学生在他们的平面设计课程中使用三维实体建模。自1983年以来，计算机辅助设计一直在圣地亚哥牧场教授。新兴的课程模式已经确定，使用计算机图形技术的三维实体建模是90年代的主要工程工具。该学院的工程学教员调查了工程师对实体建模的使用，并为这门学科开发了课程和实验室手册。新的PCAT 486-MHz微计算机系统允许将这一主题的实验室作为所有工程专业的必修课。课程和实验材料也被纳入四个工程设计课程。应用程序将包括二维和三维布尔几何操作、创建实体、相机漫游、演示和渲染、编辑、绘图和注释。

Freshman Engineering students at Rancho Santiago Community College are using Three-Dimensional Solid Modeling in their Graphic Design courses. Computer-aided design has been taught at Rancho Santiago since 1983. Emerging curriculum models have identified Three-Dimensional Solid Modeling, using computer graphics technologies, as the dominant engineering tool for the 90s. The College's Engineering faculty have investigated the use of solid modeling by engineers and developed curriculum and laboratory manuals for this subject. The new PCAT 486-MHz Microcomputer Systems allow making the laboratory on this subject a requirement for all Engineering majors. The curriculum and laboratory materials are also incorporated into four engineering design classes. Applications will include two-dimensional and three-dimensional Boolean geometry operations, creating solids, camera walk, presentation and rendering, editing, plotting, and annotation.
