What Can SolidWorks do for Creativity?
What Can SolidWorks Do for Artists and Visionaries in Schools and Elsewhere? By Richard Williams, 9/15/08 The world we live in is getting more dependent upon mechanical aided computer design people and all the related
... ContinuedNASA Robotics Alliance Project Web Course
In August and September of 2006, the NASA Robotics Alliance sponsored a beginning robotics course called Robotics with the XBC Controller. This course has now ended, but all of the material from this course is available online at the NASA
... ContinuedModeling a Centrifugal Compressor Wheel
This lesson is to be used as an in class exercise for students whom are taking a beginning SolidWorks course. Students will be exposed to curved surface modeling techniques along with elements of mechanical design. Furthermore, the product from this
... ContinuedCantilever Beam Design
Design a cantilevered I-beam to carry a distributed load of 30 kN. Conduct a stress analysis of the original beam. The original cross section is shown to the right. Optimize the beam by determining the lowest cross sectional area subject
... ContinuedIncline Plane
Students explore the advantage of an incline plane in this lesson. The objectives are to identify the six simple machines, calculate the ideal mechanical advantage of an inclined plane and explain how changing the length and height of
... ContinuedLesson Plan: Parabola from Algebra to Calculus
This lesson develops two examples with a parabola. The first example explores graphing a parabola from an equation, finding the area bounded by the x axis, center of mass, and volume of a solid in revolution about a line parallel
