Course detail
3D Digital Technology and CAD
FSI-RS1Acad. year: 2024/2025
The course is focused on modern technology and modern methods used in the development and design of a product. Lessons focused on engineering CAD systems are uniquely extended about the areas of the rapid prototyping, 3D digitization, virtual reality and reverse engineering. Students will gain a comprehensive overview of the technology portfolio in the design, pre-production and production phases of the product life cycle. Teaching is based on high-tech facilities.

Number of ECTS credits
Mode of study
Guarantor
Entry knowledge
Knowledge of computer control.
Knowledge of Finite element method.
Rules for evaluation and completion of the course
At the end of the semester, the student submits a completed semestral project: 3D digital model, report from deformation analysis.
Everything only digitally.
Participation in the exercises is obligatory and is controlled by the teacher. Absences can be compensated in exceptional and well-founded cases – to be determined by the course supervisor.
Aims
Students will have an overview of 3D digital technologies used in the design and construction processes.
