2. Introduction
•Computer Aided Design (CAD) is the use of
computer software to design and document a
•product’s design process. Computer Aided Design
is a process, the use of digital computer or
•workstation for creation, modification, synthesis,
analysis and optimization of design.
•Engineering drawing entails the use of graphical
symbols such as points, lines, curves, planes
•and shapes. Essentially, it gives detailed description
about any component in a graphical form.

3. •Use of computers (hardware & software)
for designing products
•

Numerical method, optimizations etc.
•

2D/3Ddrafting
•

3D modeling for visualization
•

Modeling curves, surfaces, solids,
mechanism, assemblies, etc

4. Aspects to CAD
Modeling
Display/Visualization
Applications

5. •These are activities which normally use models
developed using one or more of the techniques
•mentioned above. These activities are often included in
other umbrellas like CAM or CAE. A
•term often used is CAD to include this broad set of
activities. They all use CAD models and
•often the kind of application they have to be used in
determines the kind of a model to be
•developed. In this course we will strive to give an
overview of modelling techniques followed by
•some applications, specifically CAM.
