Solid modeling is great for visualizing ideas but it's often misapplied in finite-element analysis. One of the latest methods of slashing development time is to use the 3D models that CAD users create ...

A mathematical technique for representing solid objects. Unlike wireframe and surface modeling, solid modeling systems ensure that all surfaces meet properly and that the object is geometrically ...

Are you ready to design a "molecular" machine? Software that is a distant cousin of conventional solidmodeling packages may turn today's designers into molecular engineers. The future of technology is ...

The September update to Autodesk's Fusion 360 solid-modeling CAD/CAM/CAE software includes some upgraded capabilities. However, the software giant is releasing a new deployment of Fusion 360 every six ...

It's a wrap: Packaging-machine builders use 3D solid modeling to save design time and increase design flexibility. Engineers at GEI used SolidEdge to design the Flowtronic 120, which features ...
