Familiarize materials science students with concepts and digital tools in virtual design engineering.
Specifically:
- Operate computer aided design (CAD) software towards parts sketching and geometric.
- Draft part drawings in multiple views towards fabrication of outsourced prototypes.
- Arrange multiple part assemblies, analyze assembly clearances, and create exploded views.
- Evaluate and decide materials selections based on applied engineering function and associated loads.
- Determine stress/strain measurements through simulations on part interfaces.
- Exploit `Design Intent? tools to yield multifunctional products that have optimized material properties under defined loads and stresses.
What are the underlying theories/concepts?
- Geometric Modelling
- Finite Element Analysis
- Simulation in Engineering Analysis
- Material Selection based on design intent
- Prototype via FDM 3D printing
- Iterative Virtual/Prototype Testing and Feedback
