Abstract
This course introduces the design process through virtual and physical prototyping. Participants will study topics fundamental to rapid prototyping and automated fabrication, including the generation of suitable CAD models, current rapid prototyping fabrication technologies, their underlying material science, the use of secondary processing, and the impact of these technologies on society. The class will cover the design process, problem solving methods, interdisciplinary team work, current industrial practice, and manufacturing process capabilities. The course emphasizes hands-on learning using the rapid prototyping process by the actual design and fabrication of a part. Prerequisite: CAD210M or CAD220M.
