Some methods that can improve the process include examining prints and removing information that distracts from the engineers’ design intent. An innovative approach to design intent looks at geometric ...

Geant4 offers constructive solid geometry (CSG) for modeling detector geometries, but representing intricate computer-aided design (CAD) structures can be cumbersome. This article presents a novel ...

Are you ready to design a "molecular" machine? Software that is a distant cousin of conventional solidmodeling packages may turn today's designers into molecular engineers. The future of technology is ...

A mathematical technique for representing solid objects. Unlike wireframe and surface modeling, solid modeling systems ensure that all surfaces meet properly and that the object is geometrically ...

IntegrityWare, Inc. has released SOLIDS#, a geometric modeling kernel written entirely in the C# programming language. C# is a high-level programming language; and for geometric modeling, C# is also a ...

A common thread woven throughout semiconductor design and manufacturing is the importance of the 3D nature of the process and architecture of the circuit. Until recently, designers have only been able ...

Solid modeling is great for visualizing ideas but it's often misapplied in finite-element analysis. One of the latest methods of slashing development time is to use the 3D models that CAD users create ...

Solid Edge is a comprehensive hybrid CAD software solution developed by Siemens, specializing in mechanical design and engineering. It combines both parametric and direct modeling approaches—known as ...
