DESCRIPTION:
Too Little information Fred Brock We are a SolidWorks and Pro/E engineering heavy equipment company located in Ohio. I have a strong Pro/E background with a Mechanical Engineering degree, and I am trying to learn SolidWorks. SolidWorks seems like a great design tool for many applications.I picked up a used copy of this book, "Introducation to Solid Modeling Using SolidWorks". I was very disappointed in the lack of functional information in the areas of: general features, creating Drawings, implementing Mates and Relations and generating Assemblies. The book is poorly written and I would not recommend it to anyone, at any level looking to learn So
Their approach is also designed to help students understand how engineering is used in the real world. Geared toward in an introductory course in solid modeling, Introduction to Solid Modeling Using SolidWorks by Edward Howard and Joseph Musto, of East Carolina University and the Milwaukee School of Engineering, respectively, teaches solid modeling using SolidWorks. The text presents solid modeling not just as a communication tool, but as an integral part of the design process. As well, "Future Study" boxes introduce students to different topics they will study in their engineering programs.. To this end the book explores design intent, the use of solid models in engineering analysis, and introduces techniques from manufacturing such as mold design and sheet metal patterning. For instance, modeling exercises are largely centered on examples drawn from industrial applications. Howard and Musto provide a student-friendly presentation filled with easy-to-use tutorials
