Creating a Worm Using a Sweep Path
This lesson provides experience in designing a worm that will ultimately mate with a worm gear. It will show students how to create a helical path, which they will in turn sweep a closed profile on a cylinder. Contributed by
... ContinuedBuilding a Birdhouse
This lesson takes a middle school student through designing a birdhouse with individaul parts, assemblies and drawings. Students measure from a single piece of wood and see how individual pieces form the final assembly. A team approach is utilized to
... ContinuedUsing geometric relations to define Sketches to design solids.
Math teachers take your class to the CAD Lab!! This assignment deals with the real world application of geometric terms. It provides practical methods to a geometry math classes by using SolidWorks to design parts with geometric relations for creating
... ContinuedColumn Chromatography
Lesson Plan: Column_chromatography Students utilize SolidWorks to prepare a model for their column. Students utilize internet research to prepare a brief flowchart for liquid chromatography. This schematic will include: detector cell; column; solvent reservoir; sample loop; and data
... ContinuedRevolving Shapes Around and Axis
This lesson provides experience in designing cylindrical shapes by revolving a profile about an axis. The learner will learn to use circular patterns in order to locate cuts and holes. The optional assignment requires the learner to research standard dimensions
... ContinuedBoe Bot Base
This lesson develops the procedure to create a mounting plate for the robot kit, Boe bot. Applies formulas for area of a rectangle and surface area. Contributed by Michael Garland. Lesson Plan: Boe_bot Sample Drawing: boebot_base (1.5Mbytes)
... ContinuedBolt Circle
A bolt circle pattern is the diagram that indicates a series of holes drilled in a polar fashion around a point that are equally spaced both by degrees and by the radius indicating the centers of each drilled hole. This
... 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
... ContinuedLesson Plan: COSMOSXpress Force and Stress
This lesson defines normal (axial) stress and shear stress. Normal Stress is defined a Force per unit area. Normal stress occurs when a force is applied perpendicular to the cross section of an object. Shear stress occurs along or parallel
... ContinuedLesson Plan: Pythagorean Theorem
This lesson develops the Pythagorean Theorem and the measurement of triangles. It reinforces perfect squares and square roots. It is important to know the values of squared numbers from 1 to 20, how to factor square roots by hand, and
... ContinuedLesson Plan: Material and Density
This lesson develops applying material and its properties to a cylinder. Aluminum as an alloy versus a pure metal is also investigated. Density and its relationship to material properties are explored in Tools, Mass Properties. Units, precision and decimal places
... ContinuedLesson Plan: Water in Tube
This lesson develops the water required to fill the glass 16x100mm test tube. Water is a liquid and takes on the same shape the inside of its container. The inside diameter is 14mm. The Fillet radius is 7mm. In a
... ContinuedLesson Plan: Surface Area
This lesson develops the total surface area of a cylinder. Total surface area is calculated by added the quantities, lateral surface area, the area of the top circle and the area of the bottom circle. Total surface area sums all
... ContinuedLesson Plan: Radius, Diameter and Area
This lesson develops a circle that will be part of a cylinder developed into a glass test tube. The lesson describes the relationship between diameter and radius and area of a circle. SolidWorks displays diameter by default. The circle is
... ContinuedLesson Plan: Unit Circle and Triangle
This lesson develops the Unit circle of radius 1, x-axis and y-axis sketched on the unit circle and compares how these values are the solution to cosine and sine. The x coordinate of a hypotenuse of a right triangle on
