Up And Running With Autodesk Inventor Professional 2013

Up and Running with Autodesk(r) Inventor(r) Professional 2013 is dedicated to the requirements of Inventor users who need to quickly learn or refresh their skills and apply the stress and frame analysis capabilities of Inventor Professional 2013. Providing clear guidance and all-important real-world tutorials, the step-by-step, heavily-illustrated approach of this book will help designers, engineers, and manufactures of all skill levels become Simulation expertsThis edition of the book comes with 4 new chapters covering the NEW thin elements and how to simulate bolt-preloads. Chapter 1 has also been updated to cover thin elements

This title is dedicated to the requirements of Inventor Simulation users who need to quickly learn or refresh their skills, and apply the dynamic simulation, assembly analysis, and optimization capabilities of Inventor Simulation 2010.

Welcome to the seventh edition of Up and Running with Autodesk® Inventor® Professional 2020 - Step by step guide to Engineering Solutions. This edition is completely updated to the current version of the software. It also includes two new chapters on Stress Analysis using loads transferred from Dynamic Simulation.This book has been written using actual design problems, all of which have greatly benefited from the use of Simulation technology. For each design problem, I have attempted to explain the process of applying Dynamic Simulation using a straightforward, step by step approach, and have supported this approach with explanation and tips. At all times, I have tried to anticipate what questions a designer or development engineer would want to ask whilst he or she were performing the task and using Dynamic Simulation. The design problems have been carefully chosen to cover the core aspects and capabilities of Dynamic Simulation and their solutions are universal, so you should be able to apply the knowledge quickly to your own design problems with more confidence. Chapter 1 provides an overview of Dynamic Simulation and the Inventor Simulation's interface and features so that you are well-grounded in core concepts and the software's strengths, weaknesses and work around. Each design problem illustrates a different unique approach and demonstrates different key aspects of the software, making it easier for you to pick and choose which design problem you want to cover first; therefore, having read chapter 1 it is not necessary to follow the rest of the book sequentially. This book is primarily designed for self-paced learning by individuals but can also be used in an instructor-led classroom environment. I hope you will find this book enjoyable and at the same time very beneficial to you and your business. I will be very pleased to receive your feedback, to help me improve future editions.

The design problems have been carefully chosen to cover the core aspects and capabilities of Stress and Frame Analysis and their solutions are universal, so you should be able to apply the knowledge quickly to their own design problems with more confidence. The book basically comprises of five sections: Stress Analysis Environment (Chapter 1), Design Problems using Solid Elements (Chapter 2-7), Design Problems using Thin and Solid Elements (Chapter 8-11), Modal Analysis (Chapter 12) and Frame Analysis (Chapter 13 - 16). Chapters 1 & 13 provide an overview of stress, frame, Shape Generator and the user interface and features so that you are well-grounded in core concepts and the software's strengths, weaknesses and work around.

This book provides step-by-step instruction, examples, and explanations relating to the core concepts and practical application of AutoCAD in architecture, engineering and design.

Up and Running with Autocad® 2013 started out as a set of classroom notes that outlined, in an easy to understand manner, exactly how AutoCAD is used and applied, in contrast to theoretical musings or clinical descriptions of the commands as found in other books. This book attempts to use experience and top-level knowledge to sort out what is important and what is secondary, and to explain the essentials in plain language. This volume comprises 20 chapters, beginning with the AutoCAD fundamentals. The following chapters then focus on layers, colors, linetypes, and properties; text, Mtext, editing, and style; and hatch patterns; dimensions; blocks, Wblocks, dynamic blocks, groups, and purge. Other chapters cover polar, rectangular, and path arrays; basic printing and output; advanced linework; options, shortcuts, CUI, design center, and express tools; advanced design and file management tools; advanced output and pen settings; and isometric drawing. Each chapter in the book ends with a summary and some review questions to aid the reader in retaining essential concepts. This book will be of interest to engineers, architects, and industrial designers.

Get "Up and Running" with AutoCAD using Gindis’s combination of step-by-step instruction, examples, and insightful explanations. The emphasis from the beginning is on core concepts and practical application of AutoCAD in architecture, engineering and design. Equally useful in instructor-led classroom training, self-study, or as a professional reference, the book is written with the user in mind by a long-time AutoCAD professional and instructor based on what works in the industry and the classroom. Strips away complexities, both real and perceived, and reduces AutoCAD to easy-to-understand basic concepts Teaches only what is essential to operating AutoCAD first, thereby immediately building student confidence All basic commands are documented step-by-step; what the student needs to type in and how AutoCAD responds is spelled out in discrete and clear steps with screen shots added as needed New to this edition: New and improved features include better integration with the AutoCAD certification exams, new Spotlight On sections, an expanded appendix, and more content on programming 3D portion of the book has been expanded and improved, with new exercises, new features and a redone section on rendering All discussions and screen shots have been updated for the current release of AutoCAD
