Written by engineers for engineers, this book is designed to provide a complete, practical, engineering-specific introduction to communicating effectively on the job. It helps readers develop the communication skills needed to be successful in the workplace. Real engineering documents are included in each chapter providing helpful guidelines to the preparation of documents. Features comprehensive coverage of the types of written and oral communications used by engineers. Features detailed coverage on the communication of calculations -- design calculation documentation, a critical part of design, experimental and other types of technical reports. A full chapter on visual communication provides detailed coverage of how to present data visually using graphs, charts, tables and drawings. A complete chapter on communication in job searches provides up-to-date coverage of print and electronic job search communication. Also features coverage of grammar and style. For engineers who want to sharpen their basic writing skills for on-the-job documents.

Updated for use with I-DEAS MS9 and based on a 3-D approach to design, this book emphasizes how modeling is inherently different from 2-D CAD. KEY TOPICS It begins with a brief introduction to the design process in the context of concurrent engineering, then proceeds to cover topics such as the I-DEAS work environment, file management, sketching, revolution, applying and modeling 3-D constraints, features and feature-based modeling, lofting, sweeping, and extracting data from 3-D models. For engineers in graphics, drawing, and computer-aided drawing.

This revolutionary book studies the development of the visualization skills necessary to effectively use solid modeling software and helps readers to understand engineering drawings. Moving from the basics, such as starting and exiting the software, topic coverage goes on to include such advanced techniques as general sweeps and blends. Appropriate for readers interested in Engineering Drawing, Engineering Graphics, and Computer-Aided Drawing (CAD).
