Project Description
These are samples of student projects that are above and beyond the projects (lessons) used in the advanced book that introduces Knowledgeware, DMU Kinematics, GSA, Sheet Metal and Prismatic Machining.

VW Engine:Students reverse Engineered a VW Engine. They created the detail parts in CATIA V5. Then they assembled them and added Kinematic constraints and animated the engine motion.

Three peaks GIS Data:The student down loaded (from the internet) the GIS data of a mountain range near Cedar City Utah. A surface was created from the cloud of points. A solid was then created from the surface. The surface was printed on a 3D printer for visualization purposes.

3-Axis CNC: This student designed his own CNC mill using the design in Context methodology. The student is actually manufacturing his design. Note: This is just a few of the projects that are being worked on in the Advanced Solid Modeling Class. The projects vary from land development application to surfaces for a land speed record motorcycle.
