Book Description
PREFACE INTRODUCTION TO ‘CLASS A SURFACING’ ‘Class A surfacing’ is to produce mathematical surfaces to the most exacting standard. Once completed the ‘A Class surface’ is the final output of styling design. These surfaces are the ‘Master’ for making the tools that produces the product itself. ‘Class A’ surfacing is one of the most complex and tedious 3D computer modeling tasks you can do. ‘Class A’ surface development occurs in the final phase of a project, when constraints are much tighter to adhere to. Modeling under these conditions is very hard without adoption of certain ‘surface basics’ rules. 3D computer modeling is still based on the knowledge and skill set of the individual user. Therefore productivity and surface quality is user dependent. The surfacing task can begin from the scan of a physical model, as in this tutorial, but it can also start from 2D sketch or verbal input. In most cases it is the continuation of a concept 3D digital model. Most of the time you will also need to be aware of and include flanges, draft angles, tool split lines and other engineering constraints In the tutorial these are not included. To include them would put even more constraints on the modeling/surfacing itself. This tutorial demonstrates only one small part of ‘class A’ surfacing, but a very important element of creating good quality surfaces When you are starting a project or a part, always take some time to think how you will build this before you start. It is not a good idea to rush in the beginning of a project. To be successful and to achieve that right quality in the time given you need a ‘strategy’. Without this you can find yourself in a corner from which you can never escape a dead end. These points below are, in my opinion, the most important, basic rules to succeed. It is very important to have a strategy on methodology, surface layout and surface construction. Always try to build the surfaces to allow easy modification. Keep the surfaces as simple as possible. Always try to build to an intersection. By following these basic rules you have come a long way to succeeding in your modeling. Good luck.

Vehicular Engine Design
Author: Kevin Hoag
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 321137762X
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 233
Book Description
The mechanical engineering curriculum in most universities includes at least one elective course on the subject of reciprocating piston engines. The majority of these courses today emphasize the application of thermodynamics to engine ef?ciency, performance, combustion, and emissions. There are several very good textbooks that support education in these aspects of engine development. However, in most companies engaged in engine development there are far more engineers working in the areas of design and mechanical development. University studies should include opportunities that prepare engineers desiring to work in these aspects of engine development as well. My colleagues and I have undertaken the development of a series of graduate courses in engine design and mechanical development. In doing so it becomes quickly apparent that no suitable te- book exists in support of such courses. This book was written in the hopes of beginning to address the need for an engineering-based introductory text in engine design and mechanical development. It is of necessity an overview. Its focus is limited to reciprocating-piston internal-combustion engines – both diesel and spa- ignition engines. Emphasis is speci?cally on automobile engines, although much of the discussion applies to larger and smaller engines as well. A further intent of this book is to provide a concise reference volume on engine design and mechanical development processes for engineers serving the engine industry. It is intended to provide basic information and most of the chapters include recent references to guide more in-depth study.

Operations Management in Automotive Industries
Author: Marco Gobetto
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9400775938
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
This book has proved its worth over the years as a text for courses in Production Management at the Faculty of Automotive Engineering in Turin, Italy, but deserves a wider audience as it presents a compendium of basics on Industrial Management, since it covers all major topics required. It treats all subjects from product development and “make or buy”-decision strategies to the manufacturing systems setting and management through analysis of the main resources needed in production and finally exploring the supply chain management and the procurement techniques. The very last chapter recapitulates the previous ones by analysing key management indicators to pursue the value creation that is the real purpose of every industrial enterprise. As an appendix, a specific chapter is dedicated to the basics of production management where all main relevant definitions, techniques and criteria are treated, including some numerical examples, in order to provide an adequate foundation for understanding the other chapters. This book will be of use not only to Automotive Engineering students but a wide range of readers who wish to gain insight in the world of automotive engineering and the automotive industry in general.
