Reverse Engineering and Rapid Prototyping (FSI-9REP)

Academic year 2022/2023
Supervisor: doc. Ing. Jan Zouhar, Ph.D.  
Supervising institute: ÚST all courses guaranted by this institute
Teaching language: Czech or English
Aims of the course unit:
Course explain definition Reverse engineering, Rapid Prototyping and next describe methods virtual model design.
Learning outcomes and competences:
Course access know, how convert existing physical models on to virtual model, how editing virtual model and next from virtual model make 3D product.
Prerequisites:
Students are expected to have basic knowledge of designing machine parts and machine nodes, as well as computer knowledge.
Course contents:
The Course explain data mining from 2D and 3D models by using modern methods. Next explain methods of data processing for CAD/CAM/CAE systems.
Teaching methods and criteria:
The course is taught through lectures explaining the basic principles and theory of the discipline.
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes:
Exam will be take on the basic of presentation design work or on the basic work made by pattern and after consultation.
Controlled participation in lessons:
Students attend a lecture.
