Course Description

Covers advanced techniques for creating and modifying 3D models and assemblies using Fusion 360. 欧洲杯决赛竞猜app_欧洲杯足球网-投注|官网s and deepens proficiency in sketching, modeling, assemblies, analysis, workflows and sheet metal parts. Prerequisites: CADD 155 or department permission. Audit available.

Intended Outcomes for the course

Upon completion of the course students should be able to:

  1. Use advanced modeling commands in Fusion 360.
  2. Evaluate part and assembly characteristics with analysis tools.
  3. Employ specialized workflows for part and assembly construction.
  4. Create increasingly complex 3D solid models and 2D drawings from technical data.

Course Activities and Design

  • Create increasingly complex 3D solid models and 2D drawings from technical data such as sketches and mechanical drawings.
  • CAD design projects: Projects must require use of multi-component modeling, assembly and 2D mechanical drawing. Projects must meet design requirements and industry standards.  
  • Use revision control data management to roll back or forward different stages of a design model. 
  • Employ analysis tools to evaluate interference, draft, sections, simulations and function.
  • 欧洲杯决赛竞猜app_欧洲杯足球网-投注|官网 derived designs and/or linked designs for part and assembly construction
  • Alternate between various working environments. 
  • Use integrated tools to create sheet metal parts and patterns.
  • Import and utilize data from various digital formats
  • Incorporate imported CAD data into an assembly and use as reference geometry for a new or iterative design.
  • Share digital data. Make revisions based on input from other users using the integrated data management environment. 
  • Share and maintain non-CAD related design data, including project notes, specifications, etc.     
  • Participate and contribute to class discussions, activities and objective assignments.
  • Complete scheduled exams and quizzes

Outcome Assessment Strategies

Student assessment measurements are derived from business and industry expectations and standards, especially performance competencies (skills) and fluency in industry specific vernacular. A comprehensive, student-initiated project will be central to assessment.

The following additional measures may also be used:

  • Take-home examinations
  • Graded homework
  • Quizzes
  • Projects
  • In-class activities
  • Portfolios
