MODELLING TECHNIQUES [11206]
GENERAL
Period:
Semester:
OBJECTIVES
Justify the importance of the use of the model as a working tool in the implementation of a project of industrial
design;
Planning the demo project using the knowledge acquired about materials, machines and tools;
Construct a scale modelrepresentative of the design concepts developed;
Justify the choice of materials.
LEARNING OUTCOMES
This course has as its main objective to develop skills to represent physical / dimensional projectsof the design
conceptsdeveloped by students. It is intended to provide critical support in developing projects, to create habits
in the application of the methodologies discussed in the previous yearin the curricular units of MTD.
Transmit knowledge of theoretical and practical in the field of Rapid Prototyping and Models for understanding,
formulate and solve various technical problems that will face during the occupation designer.
SYLLABUS
Concerning the theoretical part of the course will be held the following approaches:
Introduction to the course and its objectives.
The different types of representation and modeling objects / products.
The three-dimensional representation of processes in project methodology.
Overview of materials.
Overview ofthe conformation of the materials.
The planning models.
Cutting.
The assembly.
Finishes
Rapid prototyping; concepts, processing techniques, materials, and finishes.
For the practical part will be presented three proposals to carry out work taking into account the theoretical
material taughtand the present needs in the activity of the Designer.

DEMONSTRATION OF THE CONSISTENCY OF SYLLABUS WITH THE CU OBJECTIVES
Through this course students acquire knowledge on raw materials and tools required to perform threedimensional models of developed products. This knowledge will be of great importance in the development and
presentation of design projects to production. The approach to the proposals are a strong contribution to the
understanding and development of product.

DEMONSTRATION OF THE CONSISTENCY LEARNING METHODOLOGIES WITH THE TEACHING/ LEARNING
OBJECTIVES
Through the presented methodology It is intended that students put into practice the theoretical knowledge
exposed in the classroom. These will be able to develop work proposals that will prepare them for the job
market in the professional field of design, particularly in the construction of models needed to achieve projectual
concretion. Modeling, being essentially a field of practical knowledge, have that same need for their
dissemination, experimentation and development.
