Aim

The course will give students basic knowledge of and skills in surface modeling and visualization in a CAD - System.

Learning outcomes (after completion of the course the student should be able to)

  • Apply and demonstrate basic skills in 3D modeling in CAID - systems
  • Apply and demonstrate basic skills in visualization CAID - systems
  • Create, evaluate and propose and implement changes where individual elements of a CAID system in a structured way.

Content

Lectures and computer exercises will be integrated in the computer room.

CAID - System, like  Autodesk Alias ​​Automotive, is used in education.

The course concludes with an independent project where the student chooses a product within a reasonable degree of difficulty and plan, modelling, visualize and present.
