Introduction to Computer-Aided Design, Engineering, and Manufacturing: Using Mechanical Model is an overview of the process leading up to a manufactured product. Based on core principles of mechanical engineering and applied computer science, this reference uses a scaled-down model as the backdrop to introduce these concepts. It blends theory and application and unites the vast field of computer-aided technologies into one: computer-aided design, engineering, and manufacturing.

Divided into two sections, the text first presents the theories that form the experimental model, focusing on computer graphics, finite element analysis, and simulation. The software is built using Java and Fortran. The second section validates the theoretical approaches through the experimental results and uses strain gauges with wired (LabVIEW) and wireless devices (LORD MicroStrain). From prefabrication to post-fabrication stress analysis, each stage of the model is featured, including wireless operation, monitoring performance of post-fabrication using prototypes, and a concept of collecting run-time data from post-fabrication. Each stage is complete with comprehensive instructions, images, and figures.

Unlike many references in this field, Introduction to Computer-Aided Design, Engineering, and Manufacturing aims to bridge the gap between software application and real-world application. Students and practicing engineers will enjoy this unique approach to apply to their own projects and design new possibilities for the future.
