This book presents a comprehensive treatment of engineering design with a focus on solutions that are based on information technology. With the capabilities of computers expanding at an unthinkable pace, the importance of using advanced computer-aided design (CAD) systems in engineering design must be emphasized. Creo Parametric, a leading CAD system, is presented in this textbook to demonstrate the role of the computer software in assisting engineers in the design process with efficiency and innovation. This book is written as an introductory textbook for undergraduate students in engineering in all specialty areas (e.g., mechanical, aerospace, civil, electrical, chemical, bioengineering, industrial, materials, and fire protection engineering). This book should also be useful to those engaged in product design.

This book is organized into 8 chapters. The first two chapters provide a fundamental coverage of engineering design. They stress the need to follow national and international standards related to engineering graphics, dimensioning, and tolerances. We offer readers with guidelines. A systematic description of the Creo Parametric design system is presented in Chapter 3-7. Chapter 3 and Chapter 4 cover the feature-based modeling and preparation of engineering drawings. Chapter 5 and Chapter 6 cover the subject of creating assemblies. We discuss the basic procedures of how to assemble components step by step. We also detail the steps required to create new components in the assembly process, the approach to using copy geometry to establish the connections between the components, and how to create new files to connect to 3D printing equipment. Chapter 7 focuses on assembly drawings with creating user-defined BOM tables. We also present case studies to detail the procedure of performing dynamic analysis through mechanism. Chapter 7 also illustrates the steps needed to add surface finish, dimensional and geometric tolerances through case studies. Chapter 7 introduces simulation (FEA) Chapter 8 presents a design project of creating a scaled 3D Model of Boeing 747. It must be emphasized that the rapid advancement of digital technology is changing the world of product design. With the new enhancements in Creo Parametric 4.0, the core modeling capabilities of Creo Parametric provide design engineers with unique and smart tools in the design process.

The material covered in this book is an outgrowth of design courses taught by the author at the University of Maryland at College Park. This textbook is written in a style adaptable for self-study and reference. Suggestions for improving the contents are welcome and the author deeply appreciate the efforts made by the readers in this regards.

Store Description

**Please note our transit times are from the date of dispatch.** We first started out as ?The Paperback Exchange,? a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become ?PBShop.? This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first purchase with us, or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.
