Course detail
Basics of 3D Modelling
FSI-K3DAcad. year: 2018/2019
The course is devoted to master modeling in software SolidWorks with emphasis on practicality. Mastering of these tools is nowadays common demand on master students of technical universities. The great importance of 3D models is also their subsequent use for numerical simulation (FEM). One of the very important abilities is also visualization of 3D models which is currently common practice even with direct impact on company economy.
