	Objectives
	THE COURSE CONTRIBUTES TO THE TRAINING OF ENGINEERS ABLE TO USE TECHNIQUES AND TOOLS FOR ASSISTED DESIGN OF COMPONENTS, SYSTEMS AND PROCESSES. IT IS ORIENTED TO INTEGRATED VIRTUAL DESIGN BY PROVIDING CONTENT RELATED TO THE MAIN THREE-DIMENSIONAL GRAPHICAL AND GEOMETRIC MODELING METHODS ASSISTED BY THE COMPUTER, THE DESIGNING PROCEDURES AND THE GENERATION OF RELEVANT DOCUMENTATION, AND INTEGRATION WITH THE SIZING AND / OR CHOICE OF MECHANICAL COMPONENTS. IT ALSO PROVIDES INSIGHTS INTO THE MAIN DESIGN AID TOOLS WITHIN THE PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT CYCLE AND ON REVERSE ENGINEERING, RAPID PROTOTYPING AND CAXX MODELING. AT THE END OF THE COURSE, THE STUDENT WILL BE ABLE TO - UNDERSTAND THE TERMINOLOGY USED IN 3D MODELING; TO KNOW THE MAIN 3D MODEL MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS AND THE METHODOLOGIES FOR ANALYZING AND DESIGNING A VIRTUAL DESIGN SYSTEM. - USE THE MAJOR 3D MODELING TOOLS AND PROCEDURES FOR USING VIRTUAL MODELS WITH SIMULATION SOFTWARE. - CHOOSE THE RIGHT TRADING TOOLS AS NEEDED AND IDENTIFY THE MOST APPROPRIATE METHODS FOR USING THEM, POSSIBLY CUSTOMIZING THEM TO OPTIMIZE THE DESIGN PROCESS - WORK TOGETHER AND PRODUCE AND SUBMIT PROJECT DOCUMENTATION USING TECHNICAL TERMINOLOGY CORRECTLY. - APPLY THE ACQUIRED KNOWLEDGE ALSO BY USING DIFFERENT SOFTWARE, EVEN IN DIFFERENT AREAS, AND EXTEND THEM TO THE THEMES PROPOSED IN THE MASTER DEGREE PROGRAMS FOR SURFACE MODELING AND THE USE OF OTHER VIRTUAL ANALYSIS TOOLS

- MODELING EXERCISES WITH SOLIDWORKS2015 (20 HOURS)

	Teaching Methods
	THE COURSE INCLUDES 30 HOURS OF FRONTAL TEACHING, 10 HOURS OF TEACHING SEMINARS IN COLLABORATION WITH INDUSTRY EXPERTS AND 20 HOURS OF TUTORIALS DURING WHICH STUDENTS WILL BE DIRECTLY INVOLVED IN SOFTWARE TO LEARN 3D MODELING MODES AND LOGIC.

	Verification of learning
	THE EVALUATION OF THE ACHIEVEMENT OF THE PREFIXED OBJECTIVES WILL BE BY A PRACTICAL TEST OF MODELING OF PARTS AND ASSEMBLY AND OF THE RELEVANT STANDARD TABLES; A TEST ON THEORY TOPICS. PRACTICAL TEST AND THEORY ALLOW PASSING THE EXAM. THE REALIZATION AND DISCUSSION OF AN OPTIONAL GROUP PROJECT WORK, ASSIGNED BY THE TEACHER, ALLOWS THE MAXIMUM OF THE EVALUATION TO BE REACHED. TOGETHER THE PROCESS MUST BE CONSTITUTED BY A TECHNICAL REPORT THAT DESCRIBES THE CONTEXT AND THE DESIGN CHOICES AND THE MAIN SIZING CALCULATIONS, UP TO THE DISTINCT BASE, FROM THE COMPLETE 3D MODEL AND FROM THE TABLE OF THE NON-COMMERCIAL COMPONENTS.
