Selected Chapters from Constructive Geometry (FSI-0KD)

Academic year 2020/2021
Supervisor: doc. Ing. Pavel Štarha, Ph.D.  
Supervising institute: ÚM all courses guaranted by this institute
Teaching language: Czech
Aims of the course unit:
The course aims to acquaint the students with the theoretical basics of descriptive geometry.
Learning outcomes and competences:
Students will acquire basic knowledge of three-dimensional descriptive geometry
necessary to solve real life situations in various areas of engineering.
Prerequisites:
Students are expected to be familiar with the fundamentals of geometry and mathematics
at the secondary school level.
Course contents:
The course familiarises students with the fundamentals of three-dimensional descriptive geometry, theory of engineering drawing and graphical method of solving space or solid analytic geometry problems. Presentation of these concepts will enable students
to understand descriptive geometry who will be able to relate it to engineering and technology.
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:
Course-unit credit is conditional on an active attendance at seminars.
Controlled participation in lessons:
If a student does not satisfy the given conditions, the teacher can set an alternative condition.
Type of course unit:
    Lecture  13 × 2 hrs. optionally                  
Course curriculum:
    Lecture 1. Basics of conics.
2. Special constructions of conics.
3. Conics. Mapping between two planes.
4. Mapping between a circle and an ellipse.
5. Mongean system of descriptive geometry. Basic principles of orthographic projection.
6. Auxiliary inclined views or projections.
7. Orthographic projection - practicale problems.
8. Axonometric projection.
9. Solids in the isometric pictorial.
10. Elementary solids and surfaces.
11. Intersection of a line and a surface. Slice.
12. Auxiliary inclined views.
13. Examples according to student interest.
