LYNDA.COM DESCRIPTION:
In Rhino 4.0 Essential Training, author Dave Schultze shows how the 3D NURBS-based modeling tools in Rhino 4.0 are used to engineer products from toy robots to full-sized aircraft. This course concentrates on using Rhino 4.0 for industrial design and rapid prototyping, with a review of common 3D terminology using specific examples. Along with a comprehensive exploration of the Rhino interface, the course includes an introduction to building 3D objects with Rhino’s three primary entities: the curve, the surface, and the solid. Exercise files are included with the course.
Topics include:
- Understanding 3D terminology
- Viewing a 3D model in Rhino 4.0
- Manipulating objects with commands
- Creating curves, surfaces, and solids
- Applying transformations to 3D objects
- Creating unique shapes with Boolean operators
- Snapping to objects and planes
- Defining curve and surface degree
- Prototyping a 3D model
