The book covers various topics in mechanical engineering, with a
special attention to machine design, product assembly,
technological aspects of production, mechatronics and production
maintenance. Based on peer-reviewed papers presented at the 7th
International Scientific-Technical Conference MANUFACTURING 2022,
held in Poznan, Poland, on May 16-19, 2022, the different chapters
describe cutting-edge research and methods fostering automation and
optimization of industrial processes and machining, with an
emphasis on energy-efficient and ecological solutions. All in all,
this book offers a timely guide for researchers and professionals
in mechanical engineering and manufacturing, yet it is also
intended to foster communication and cooperation between
universities and industrial partners
Create beautiful custom materials and leverage powerful extensions
for efficient modeling Key Features Understand how to get the most
out of SketchUp's powerful native tools with key images printed in
color Customize and transform your workspace for efficient 3D
modeling Go beyond SketchUp's capabilities with extensions and free
online resources Book DescriptionAnyone who's worked with it will
know that SketchUp is the quickest and easiest way to create 3D
models. While its approachable interface makes it super easy to
learn, this book will show you how the extremely capable SketchUp
software can take you far beyond what you may have initially
thought possible. Get ready to level up from a basic user to
becoming a SketchUp ninja! Each chapter will take you through the
capabilities of SketchUp, challenging you to use tools in
innovative ways. This includes organizing your model, modifying
native commands, customizing your interface, utilizing inferencing,
and much more. Additionally, you'll learn about the extensions that
can be added to SketchUp to supplement the tools you have been
using, allowing you to make your 3D modeling process quicker,
easier, and more powerful. By the end of this SketchUp book, you'll
have an enhanced understanding of how to use the impressive range
of tools and be on your way to customizing SketchUp for your
one-of-a-kind workflow. What you will learn Recap the basics of
navigation and SketchUp's native modeling tools Modify commands,
toolbars, and shortcuts to improve your modeling efficiency Use
default templates, as well as create custom templates Organize your
models with groups, components, tags, and scenes Analyze your own
modeling workflow and understand how to improve it Discover
extensions and online repositories that unlock the advanced
capabilities of SketchUp Leverage your existing SketchUp Pro
subscription for even better results Who this book is forThis book
is for designers, architects, and professional modelers who have
used SketchUp before, perhaps self-taught, or have completed
software training but find themselves needing more than just the
basics from SketchUp. The book assumes that you have spent some
time in SketchUp and have basic modeling experience.
Learn 2D drawing and 3D modeling from scratch using AutoCAD and
AutoCAD LT 2023 and become a CAD professional Key Features Learn
techniques for making, modifying, and managing AutoCAD 2D and 3D
drawings Understand how to use reusable and named objects like
blocks, xRef, and layers Scale, annotate, and print drawings from
model space and layout Book DescriptionAutoCAD is one of the most
versatile software applications for architectural and engineering
designs and the most popular computer-aided design (CAD) platform
for 2D drafting and 3D modeling. This hands-on 2nd edition guide
will take you through everything you need to know to make the most
out of this powerful tool, from a simple tour of the user interface
to using advanced tools. Starting with basic drawing shapes and
functions, you'll get to grips with the fundamentals of CAD
designs. You'll then learn about effective drawing management using
layers, dynamic blocks, and groups, and discover how to add
annotations and plots like a professional. As you progress, the
book will show you how to convert your 2D drawings into 3D models
and shapes. You'll also discover advanced features, such as
isometric drawings, drawing utilities for managing and recovering
complex files, quantity surveying, and multidisciplinary drawing
files using xRefs. Finally, you'll focus on rendering and
visualizing your designs in AutoCAD. By the end of this book,
you'll have developed a solid understanding of CAD principles and
be able to work with AutoCAD software confidently to build
impressive 2D and 3D creations. What you will learn Understand CAD
fundamentals like functions, navigation, and components Create
complex 3D objects using primitive shapes and editing tools Work
with reusable objects like blocks and collaborate using xRef
Explore advanced features like external references and dynamic
blocks Discover surface and mesh modeling tools such as Fillet,
Trim, and Extend Use the paper space layout to create plots for 2D
and 3D models Convert your 2D drawings into 3D models Who this book
is forThis 3D modeling book is for design engineers, mechanical
engineers, architects, and anyone working in construction,
manufacturing, or similar fields. Whether you're an absolute
beginner, student, or professional looking to upgrade your
engineering design skills, you'll find this AutoCAD book useful. No
prior knowledge of CAD or AutoCAD is necessary.
This book presents selected, peer-reviewed proceedings of the 2nd
International Conference on Material, Machines and Methods for
Sustainable Development (MMMS2020), held in the city of Nha Trang,
Vietnam, from 12 to 15 November, 2020. The purpose of the
conference is to explore and ensure an understanding of the
critical aspects contributing to sustainable development,
especially materials, machines and methods. The contributions
published in this book come from authors representing universities,
research institutes and industrial companies, and reflect the
results of a very broad spectrum of research, from micro- and
nanoscale materials design and processing, to mechanical
engineering technology in industry. Many of the contributions
selected for these proceedings focus on materials modeling,
eco-material processes and mechanical manufacturing.
