3. Computer Aided design

This week I have learnt about the Computer aided designing software and I have designed 2D and 3D models.

Assignment

model (raster, vector, 2D, 3D, render, animate, simulate, …) a possible final project

2D, 2.5D design

raster

GIMP

GIMP is a cross-platform image editor available for GNU/Linux, OS X, Windows and more operating systems. It is free software, we can change its source code and distribute our changes.

Whether we are a graphic designer, photographer, illustrator, or scientist, GIMP provides us with sophisticated tools to get our job done. We can further enhance our productivity with GIMP thanks to many customization options and 3rd party plugins.‘Source’

vector

Inkscape

Inkscape is a professional vector graphics editor for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. It’s free and open source. someone who needs to create some vector imagery, Inkscape is for Us! ‘Source’

3D design

types
  • Constructive Solid Geometry
  • constrained
  • hierarchical
  • parametric
  • procedural
  • algorithmic
  • boundary (b-rep)
  • function (f-rep) representations GUIs
  • scripting
  • hardware description languages
  • imperative
  • declarative
  • generative
  • optimization
  • Multidisciplinary Design Optimization
programs
  • Tinkercad

Tinkercad is a free, easy-to-use app for 3D design, electronics, and coding. It’s used by teachers, kids, hobbyists, and designers to imagine, design, and make anything! ‘source’

Design In Fusion 360

For the 3D design and modeling I have choosen Fusion 360 software which is the first 3D CAD, CAM, and CAE tool of its kind that connects entire product development process in a single cloud-based platform that works on PC, Mac, and mobile devices.‘Source’

So for The designing fist I needed to open a new folder in the interface

Then I intserted one image from my desktop which I have installed from google

After inserting the image I have made the Size

For the next step I have selected the points from the skecth menu.

After that i have created a spline curve through selected points.

And Finally I have created a revolve with one side direction which is 360 deg angle type

One Can also find 3D models and Design here ‘Sketchfab’
Thats all for this week assignment ! Thank You !!!
