Visual Propositions for the Integration of CADD and TRAD.

Peer reviewed

Rodriguez-Ramos, Walter E. – Engineering Design Graphics Journal, 1987

Advances four propositions in an effort to provide a frame of reference for a new generation of interactive engineering graphics scholars. Suggests the integration of traditional engineering graphics with new production tools such as computer-aided design drafting. Proposes that graphics problem-solving educational opportunities be maximized. (CW)

Three-Dimensional Representation of a Cylinder on a Graphics Display Device.

Peer reviewed

Lynch, Alan; Jenison, Roland – Engineering Design Graphics Journal, 1987

Demonstrates one method for finding parallel tangents to a cylinder based on geometric properties of the three dimensional representation of the cylinders. Uses rotational transformations to obtain a three dimensional view. Provides a starting point for those studying geometric methods as a lead into computer assisted drafting. (CW)

Techniques for Generating Objects in a Three-Dimensional CAD System.

Peer reviewed

Goss, Larry D. – Engineering Design Graphics Journal, 1987

Discusses coordinate systems, units of measure, scaling and levels as they relate to a database generated by a computer in a spatial rather than planer location. Describes geometric-oriented input, direct coordinates, transformations, annotation, editing and patterns. Stresses that hand drafting emulation is a short-sighted approach to…
