A Tutorial Guide to PT/ModelerTM and Pro/ENGINEER is the ideal tool for beginners getting started with powerful design and production tools from Parametric Technology Corporation. This book provides an overview of basic PT/Modeler commands. Because PT/Modeler is a derivative of the powerful Pro/ENGINEER package and their interfaces are virtually identical, this text can also be used to learn the basics of Pro/ENGINEER. This manual presents basic concepts in an efficient, accessible way, allowing the user to get up and running quickly. Topics from getting-started basics to advanced assemblies are covered in 62 short tutorials-all accompanied by detailed supporting text. The book is organized so that it is useful during the tutorial phase, during review, and later as a reference. You will also find in this text important background information on such topics as parametric design, 3D solid modeling, hierarchical design, and creating engineering drawings. Additional Features Overview material on PT/Render and PT/Library, popular add-on packages Step-by-step tutorials in a handy, easy-to-follow table format Supporting data files, available via the world wide web, for use with some of th
This practical, hands-on guide to Parametric Technology Corporation's Pro/ENGINEER® computer-aided design program builds users' skills in creating parts, assemblies, and drawings, while helping them master Pro/ENGINEER® commands by working through 20 short lessons. Each step-by-step lesson builds on the one that precedes it, while focusing the user's attention on a specific set of commands and concepts that are applied to a part, an assembly, or a drawing. As a result, users learn Pro/ENGINEER® command sin the context of doing real work, at a pace that encourages success. Appendixes at the back of the book contain advanced projects, references materials, and project design planning sheets.
Originating from an introductory engineering graphics and computer aided design (CAD) course, this text is updated to be compatible with the latest Pro/ENGINEER 2001 release. Through the use of tutorials, exercises, and examples, the author shows studentshow to communicate design ideas graphically.
With major content updates and many more supporting online materials, the seventh edition of the Treatment Resource Manual for Speech-Language Pathology is an accessible and reliable source of basic treatment information and techniques for a wide range of speech and language disorders. This detailed, evidence-based manual includes complete coverage of common disorder characteristics, treatment approaches, reporting techniques, and patient profiles for child and adult clients. Divided into two sections, the first focuses on preparing for effective interventions, and includes the basic principles of speech-language therapies including various reporting systems and techniques. The second part, the bulk of the book, is devoted to treatments for specific communication disorders, including speech sound disorders, pediatric language disorders, autism spectrum disorder, adult aphasia and traumatic brain injury (TBI), motor speech disorders, dysphagia, stuttering, voice disorders, and alaryngeal speech. The last three chapters focus on effective counseling skills, cultural competence and considerations, and contemporary professional issues, including critical thinking, telepractice, simulation technologies, and coding and reimbursement. Treatment Resource Manual for Speech-Language Pathology, Seventh Edition is an ideal resource for academic courses on intervention and clinical methods in graduate speech-language programs and as a more practical supplementary text to the more traditional theoretical books used for undergraduate clinical methods courses. It is also helpful as a study guide for certification and licensing exams, and a handy manual for practicing clinicians in need of a single resource for specific therapy techniques and materials for a wide variety of communication disorders. New to the Seventh Edition * Updates to each disorder-focused chapter on treatment efficacy and evidence-based practice * New focus on a social model of disability (diversity-affirming approach to intervention) * Substantial update on approaches for autism * Expanded discussion of the use of telepractice to conduct intervention * Expanded information on cultural/linguistic diversity and cultural responsiveness/competence within the context of therapeutic intervention * Updated information on incidence/prevalence of aphasia and expanded discussion of treatment efficacy in TBI, spasmodic dysphonia, and goals for treatment of motor speech disorders * Additional Helpful Hints in each disorder chapter * Updates to the Lists of Additional Resources and Recommended Readings * Updated citations and references throughout * Significant expansion of supplementary online materials to facilitate pedagogy and enhance learning Key Features * Chapters focused on treatment of disorders include a concise description of the disorder, case examples, specific suggestions for the selection of therapy targets, and sample therapy activities * Bolded key terms with an end-of-book glossary * A multitude of case examples, reference tables, charts, figures, and reproducible forms * Helpful Hints and Lists of Additional Resources in each chapter * Updated book appendices that include the new ASHA Code of Ethics and Cultural Competency checklists in addition to disorder-specific appendices in many chapters Please note that ancillary content (such as documents, audio, and video, etc.) may not be included as published in the original print version of this book.
• Uses step-by-step tutorials designed for novice users • Explains not only how but also why commands are used • Covers part and assembly creation, creating engineering drawings and parametric solid modeling The eleven lessons in this tutorial introduce you to the design capabilities of Creo Parametric 8.0. The tutorial covers the major concepts and frequently used commands required to advance from a novice to an intermediate user level. Major topics include part and assembly creation, and creation of engineering drawings. Also illustrated are the major functions that make Creo Parametric a parametric solid modeler. Although the commands are presented in a click-by-click manner, an effort has been made, in addition to showing/illustrating the command usage, to explain why certain commands are being used and the relation of feature selection and construction to the overall part design philosophy. Simply knowing where commands can be found is only half the battle. As is pointed out numerous times in the text, creating useful and effective models of parts and assemblies requires advance planning and forethought. Moreover, since error recovery is an important skill, considerable time is spent exploring the created models. In fact, some errors are intentionally induced so that users will become comfortable with the “debugging” phase of model creation. At the end of each lesson is a short quiz reviewing the new topics covered in that chapter. Following the quiz are several simple "exercise" parts that can be created using new commands taught in that lesson. In addition to these an ongoing project throughout the book is also included. This project consists of several parts that are introduced with the early lessons and finally assembled at the end. Who this book is for This book has been written specifically with students in mind. Typically, students enter their first CAD course with a broad range of abilities both in spatial visualization and computer skills. The approach taken here is meant to allow accessibility to persons of all levels. These lessons, therefore, were written for new users with no previous experience with CAD, although some familiarity with computers is assumed. The tutorials in this textbook cover the following topics: • Introduction to the program and its operation • The features used in part creation • Modeling utilities • Creating engineering drawings • Creating assemblies and assembly drawings
TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 672: Roundabouts: An Informational Guide - Second Edition explores the planning, design, construction, maintenance, and operation of roundabouts. The report also addresses issues that may be useful in helping to explain the trade-offs associated with roundabouts. This report updates the U.S. Federal Highway Administration's Roundabouts: An Informational Guide, based on experience gained in the United States since that guide was published in 2000.
