Parametric Modeling Inventor Style,
By Rodney S Wellman (Harrison, Tennessee United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Parametric Modeling with Autodesk Inventor R2 (Paperback)
I am responsible for implimentating and intergrating a parametric, solid modeling, design system in our company. The biggest obstacle I faced is orenting a well entrenched, 2D oriented, staff of designers and engineers to accept a new way of thinking. We first tried a different parametric modeling program with the prescribed training porgram and the results was disastrous. The software provided the power bu the easy of use we needed and the training was lacking. Autodesk Inventor provides the ppower and the ease of use we needed.If you are new to parametric modeling then the Inventor software and 'Parametric Modeling with Autodesk Inventor R2' by Randy Shih is a win-win combination. The real value of this book is the discussion of the theory behind the process. In one section Mr. Shih shows in flow chart form the developement of the modeling process. This is invaluable to the user. It's also something you don't get in the Autodesk training. We are planning to use this book as an additional training resource. The step by step progression through the book brings the user from being imtimitated to being confident with this new software. The types of parts the user creates utilizes the features well. The bonus parts are a great addition, and allows the user to work on his/her own. I also use this book as a reference. It is well laid out and the subjects are easily found. Autodesk Inventor is new and fast growing. Release 3 is out and R4 is scheduled for release in mid October 2000, with R5 scheduled by years end. If there is a drawback to this book it is because the software is growing faster than the publisher can update it. In summary, I found this book to be well written and it's context to be pertinent. The author lays a sound foundation of understanding for the user to build on. I recomend this book highly.
