Right Approach to 3D Modeling using CAD Tools

The thesis provides a step-by-step methodology to enable an instructor dealing with CAD tools to optimally guide his/her students through an understandable 3D modeling approach which will not only enhance their knowledge about the tool’s usage but also enable them to achieve their desired result in comparatively lesser time. In the known practical field, there is particularly very little information available to apply CAD skills to formal beginners’ training sessions. Additionally, advent of new software in 3D domain cumulates updating into a more difficult task. Keeping up to the industry’s advanced requirements emphasises the importance of more skilled hands in the field of CAD development, rather than just prioritising manufacturing in terms of complex software features. The thesis analyses different 3D modeling approaches specified to the varieties of CAD tools currently available in the market. Utilizing performance-time databases, learning curves have been generated to measure their performance time, feature count etc. Based on the results, improvement parameters have also been provided for (Asperl, 2005)
