ETSC 260 - NURBS Modeling

Description:
Hands-on training in the production of 3-D models using Rhinoceros’ NURBS (non-uniform rationale B-splines) geometry. Formerly IET 260, students may not receive credit for both.

Prerequisites:
Prerequisite: ETSC 160.

Credits: (4)

Learner Outcomes:
Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to:

Will be able to create NURBS based graphic objects.
Create models with precision using coordinate input, and object snaps.
Modify curves and surfaces with edit commands.
Export and import models to and from different native file formats.
Render a model.
Display any portion of a model and plot with a simple layout view.
Accurately and efficiently solve problems using NURBS based modeling.
