In what case do you like reading so much? What about the type of the interactive curves and surfaces a multimedia tutorial on cagd book? The needs to read? Well, everybody has their own reason why should read some books. Mostly, it will relate to their necessity to get knowledge from the book and want to read just to get entertainment. Novels, story book, and other entertaining books become so ...

Today parametric associative CAD systems must help companies to create more efficient virtual development processes. While dealing with complex parts (e.g. the number of surfaces of the solid) no CAD modeling methodology is existing. Based on the analysis of industrial designers’ practices as well as student practices on CAD, we identified key factors that lead to better performance. Our object...

In this paper we report on a system of typographic intervention which aims to bring about a typesetting environment which automates the aesthetic as well as contextual concerns previously manifested in the output of deconstructivist typographers throughout the 20 century. While in the current state of the undertaking a commercial font design software named FontLab has been used to bring about a...

2 We are here dealing with the problem of space layout planning. We present an architectural conceptual CAD approach. Starting with design specifications in terms of constraints over spaces, a specific enumeration heuristics leads to a complete set of consistent conceptual design solutions named topological solutions. These topological solutions which do not presume any precise definitive dimen...

In this work there is presented a non-traditional approach to generation of block-structured orthogonal grids on the basis of up-todate CAD systems. The features of the algorithm of constructiing orthogonal grids are explained. Examples of constructed grids are provided.

In this paper we introduce a content-oriented scheme for protocol studies of designers and demonstrate its benefit for CAAD research. The structure of the coding scheme is described. We discuss how this method can benefit CAAD research and its differences from the process-oriented method used previously. With this method we analyze data to describe the design process as the combination of senso...

In the area of Computer Aided Design (CAD), the main feature of geometric constraint systems lies in their invariance under the direct isometry group. Several researchers have developed methods which take advantage of this fact to decompose such systems into smaller sub-systems. In this paper, we show that considering the invariance under the direct similarity group leads to a new constructive ...
