CAD

Computer Aided Design
|
|
Spline
|
-long, smooth, and flexible strips of material
-used to define the shape of a ship’s hull. |
|
NURBS
|
-nonuniform rational B-splines
-used to model curves and surfaces -provide a mathematically precise representation of both standard analytic curves as well as freeform shapes |
|
BIM
|
-building information modeling
-model based technology linked with a database of project information -provides digital representation of the building process to facilitate compatibility and exchange of info in digital format -reflects the general reliance on database technology as the foundation. |

|
CSG
|
- representation scheme employed for describing solid models
-CSG representation stores the model data in terms of the solid primitives and the Boolean operations that are used to combine them -stored in tree structure -solid primitives are leaves -Boolean operators are branches -simple and compact -info on faces, edges, and vertices is not readily available |
|
B-Rep
|
-other representation scheme
-stores the boundaries of the solid (vertices, edges, faces) in the database and info regarding how these are connected -the outside of a face is determined by the order of its bounding edges -bounding edges of the face are stored in the database in a counterclockwise direction -used best with shading, hidden line removal, and other types of display. |
|
Primitives
|
- solid entities similar to the 2D line, circle, and arcs used in wireframe modeling
-examples are box, sphere, cylinder, cone wedge, and torus. |
|
DOF
|
- degrees of freedom
-solid part models have 6 -three in translation and three in rotation -unconstrained, free to translate along or rotate about any combination of the three coordinate axes. |

Features
|
-basic three dimensional building blocks for creating parts
-two types of model features -SKETCHED require that a sketch be made before feature can be created (extrude, revolve) -PLACED (hole, chamfer, fillet, shell, face draft) can be created without sketch geometry |
|
Constraints
|
-mathematical requirements imposed on the geometry of a 3D model
-two types -DIMENSIONAL (parametric dimensions) place limits on size or position of a feature -GEOMETRIC (parallelism, tangency, concentricity) place limits on the shape or position of a feature. |
