SolidWorks 2012: A Tutorial Approach

SolidWorks 2012: A Tutorial Approach introduces readers to SolidWorks 2012 software, one of the world's leading parametric solid modeling packages. In this textbook, the author has adopted a tutorial-based approach to explain the fundamental concepts of SolidWorks. This textbook has been written with the tutorial point of view and the learn-by-doing theme to help the users easily understand the concepts covered in it. The textbook consists of 11 chapters that are structured in a pedagogical sequence that makes the book very effective in learning the features and capabilities of the software. The textbook covers a wide range of topics such as Sketching, Part Modeling, Assembly Modeling, Drafting in SolidWorks 2012. In addition, this textbook covers the basics of FEA and SolidWorks Simulation.
