| Outcomes: | After completion of this course, the students should be able to:
1. Use current state-of-the-art CAD/CAM technology in research [k1, k2]. 2. Extend CAD/CAM technology for research purposes [c1, e, k1, k2]. 3. Develop CAD/CAM applications using open architecture solid modeling kernels [c1, e]. 4. Develop algorithms for 2D and 3D geometric modeling [a4, k2, k4]. 5. Explain the concepts and underlying theory of modeling and the usage of models in the different engineering applications. Explain the benefits of a comprehensive and integrated CAD/CAM system [a4]. 6. Create accurate and precise geometry of complex engineering systems and use the geometric models in different engineering applications [k1, k2]. 7. Compare the different types of modeling techniques and explain the central role solid models play in the successful completion of CAD/CAM-based product development [a4]. 8. Use and assess state-of-the-art CAD/CAM codes efficiently, effectively and intelligently in advanced engineering applications [k2, e]. 9. Explain the basic concepts of and challenging facing machining [a4]. Note: The letters within the brackets indicate the general program outcomes of mechanical engineering. See: ME Program Outcomes. |
