As the rapid introduction of new designs to the market becomes the key success factor in modern industry, demands arise for lessons in solid modeling and applications. Conventional drawing tables are replaced by CAD and CAE technology, while manual machines are upgraded with more flexible and numerically controlled systems on the shop floors. This book addresses scope of lessons primarily for design engineers involved in the disciplines from product design, analysis, and validation. Theoretical backgrounds introduced in this book will help students nderstand operational knowledge of CAD, CAE, and Rapid Prototyping technology, so that engineers can operate or develop design tools in a more efficient manner. Theoretical outlines as well as mathematical examples introduced in the book will help students understand the concept of each theory up to the level of practical use in real-world applications. The general audiences are mechanical or manufacturing engineers with little or no coding experience for applications of theory, but with limited spreadsheet experiences. The book is designed to enable students to understand and apply theories to practical applications. Therefore, the focus of theories and illustrations in each chapter are prepared to help maximize learning experiences from understanding to practical applications.
