FEATURES/BENEFITS
Presents sketching and modeling techniques in the context of the design process--Organization more closely reflects industry practice. Users first learn to sketch their ideas, to transform 2D sketches into 3D models, to refine the models and use them for analysis, and finally to use the models to document the design--as they would on a project. Gives the user a strong framework for understanding why they should learn to sketch, when it is appropriate to use different kinds of models, and what they need to discover in order to prepare a model for manufacture. Includes a chapter on exporting and using the model data for downstream applications, including rapid prototypes, that presents additional considerations for creating a useful design database. Emphasizes sketching and visualization techniques throughout the text--"Designer's Notebook" feature highlights the use of sketching in the context of industrial practice. Reinforces the role of sketching in each chapter/through the entire design process. Users learn to use a full range of drawing views and projections in their sketches in early chapters. Actual sketches used as illustrations allow the reader to compare their efforts with other sketches, not instrument or CAD drawings. Encourages users to keep a notebook of sketches by showing how practicing engineers use sketching. Emphasizes solid and parametric modeling software as a means to building a design database--Presents the big picture of the many uses of the CAD database. Anchoring modeling techniques in the context of design helps users build an understanding of design intent as they learn to model. Aids users in evaluating the strengths and weaknesses ofthe software they are learning to use in lab by providing a comparison of modeling methods. Encourages the reader to think about the broader context for their models so they plan for flexibility, downstream applications, and manufacture as they are learning to model.

Lake Arrowhead
Legend has it that the remarkable scar on the southern face of the mountain was formed when the Great Spirit fired an arrow at healing hot springs along the baseline, to mark the spot for the Pauite and Serrano Indians. From the floor of the San Bernardino Valley, the "arrowhead" can be seen from up to 50 miles away. The once-named "Little Bear Valley" was populated mostly by loggers for a time, but in the 1920s, the area was reimagined as a getaway spot. Tourists and Hollywood stars flocked to the lakefront hotels and homes, and the lake became a year-round destination for skiing, hiking, shopping, and dining.

Scenes From A Marriage (Full Frame)
Marianne (Liv Ullmann) and Johan (Erland Josephson) always seemed like the perfect couple. But when Johan suddenly leaves Marianne for another woman, they are forced to confront the disintegration of their marriage.
