Introduction to Finite Element Analysis Using Creo Simulate 9.0

Creo Parametric 9.0 Advanced Tutorial

Creo Parametric 9.0 Tutorial

Creo Parametric 9.0 Tutorial

The eleven lessons in this tutorial introduce you to the design capabilities of Creo Parametric 9. 0. The tutorial covers the major concepts and frequently used commands required to advance from a novice to an intermediate user level. Major topics include part and assembly creation and creation of engineering drawings. Also illustrated are the major functions that make Creo Parametric a parametric solid modeler. Although the commands are presented in a click-by-click manner an effort has been made in addition to showing/illustrating the command usage to explain why certain commands are being used and the relation of feature selection and construction to the overall part design philosophy. Simply knowing where commands can be found is only half the battle. As is pointed out numerous times in the text creating useful and effective models of parts and assemblies requires advance planning and forethought. Moreover since error recovery is an important skill considerable time is spent exploring the created models. In fact some errors are intentionally induced so that users will become comfortable with the debugging phase of model creation. At the end of each lesson is a short quiz reviewing the new topics covered in that chapter. Following the quiz are several simple exercise parts that can be created using new commands taught in that lesson. In addition to these an ongoing project throughout the book is also included. This project consists of several parts that are introduced with the early lessons and finally assembled at the end. Who this book is for This book has been written specifically with students in mind. Typically students enter their first CAD course with a broad range of abilities both in spatial visualization and computer skills. The approach taken here is meant to allow accessibility to persons of all levels. These lessons therefore were written for new users with no previous experience with CAD although some familiarity with computers is assumed. | Creo Parametric 9. 0 Tutorial

Designing with Creo Parametric 9.0

Designing with Creo Parametric 9.0

Designing with Creo Parametric 9. 0 provides the high school student college student or practicing engineer with a basic introduction to engineering design while learning the 3D modeling Computer-Aided Design software called Creo Parametric from PTC. The topics are presented in tutorial format with exercises at the end of each chapter to reinforce the concepts covered. It is richly illustrated with computer screen shots throughout. Above all this text is designed to help you expand your creative talents and communicate your ideas through the graphics language. Because it is easier to learn new information if you have a reason for learning it this textbook discusses design intent while you are learning Creo Parametric. At the same time it shows how knowledge covered in basic engineering courses such as statics dynamics strength of materials and design of mechanical components can be applied to design. You do not need an engineering degree nor be working toward a degree in engineering to use this textbook. Although FEA (Finite Element Analysis) is used in this textbook its theory is not covered. The first two chapters of this book describe the design process. The meat of this text learning the basic Creo Parametric software is found in Chapters three through six. Chapters seven eight and 12 deal with dimensioning and tolerancing an engineering part. Chapters nine and ten deal with assemblies and assembly drawings. Chapter 11 deals with family tables used when similar parts are to be designed or used. Chapter 13 is an introduction to Creo Simulate and FEA.
