Cheng's compact guide to surface modeling teaches student and professional users of Autodesk Inc.'s MECHANICAL how to create 3D wireframe and NURBS (Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline) surface models. The book begins with a brief introduction to AutoSurf Release 3, and then proceeds to a hands-on project in which users create 3D wireframes and proceeds to a hands-on project in which users create 3D wireframes and surfaces for a video camera model. A second project - modeling a mobile phone - introduces users to advanced surface modeling techniques. The book concludes with an easy-to-use reference of all AutoSurf Release 3-related commands and variables used in the book. This tutorial-style…
