Learning SOLIDWORKS 2024: A Project Based Approach book introduces the readers to SOLIDWORKS 2024, the world's leading parametric solid modeling package. In this book, the author has adopted a project-based approach to explain the fundamental concepts of SOLIDWORKS. This unique approach has been used to explain the creation of parts, assemblies, and drawings of a real-world model. The book will provide the users a sound and practical knowledge of the software while creating a motor cycle as the real-world model. This knowledge will guide the users to create their own projects in an easy and effective manner.
Some of the features of this book are:- Chapters organized in a pedagogical sequence.
- Summarized content on the first page of the topics that are covered in the chapter.
- Real-world mechanical engineering problems used as tutorials and projects with step-by-step explanation.
- Additional information throughout the book in the form of notes and tips.
- Self-Evaluation Tests and Review Questions at the end of each chapter to help the users assess their knowledge.
