INTRODUCTION

SOLIDWORKS is a very productive 3D CAD software tool, with its integrated analytical tools and design automation to help stimulate physical behavior such as kinematics, dynamics, stress, deflection, vibration, temperatures or fluid flow to suit all types of design. SOLIDWORKS is an easy to use parametric design modular, meaning you can easily edit the design at any stage in the design process. Real View graphics allow you to visualize your design in real time Photo View 360 can create sophisticated photo realistic renderings and animations

DESIGN METHODOLOGY

FRONT FENDER

TOOLS/COMMANDS USED

SKECTH : The sketch is the basis for a 3D model. You can create a sketch on any of the default planes (Front Plane, Top Plane, and Right Plane), or a created plane.

REVOLVE : Revolves add or remove material by revolving one or more profiles around a centerline. You can create revolved boss/bases, revolved cuts, or revolved surfaces. The revolve feature can be a solid, a thin feature, or a surface. Create a sketch that contains one or more profiles and a Centre line or an edge to use as the axis around which the feat revolve tools

SPLIT: The sketch lines are projected onto the selected faces, and divide the faces into multiple regions as defined by the sketch. Once the split line is created, these selected regions can have a different appearance than the other regions, and function as a separate face. This tool is used to project an entity onto other surface or curved or planar faces. You can also split faces on multiple bodies with one command.

FILLET: This feature creates a rounded internal or external face on the part. You can Fillet all the edges of a face, edges, loops etc.

TOOLS/COMMANDS USED

LOFT: Loft creates a feature by making transitions between profiles. A loft can be a base, boss, cut, or surface. You create a loft using two or more profiles. Only the first, last, or first and last profiles can be points. All sketch entities, including guide curves and profiles, can be contained in a single 3D sketch.

DOME: This feature is majorly applied to faces. Select one or more planar or non-planar faces. You can apply dome to faces whose centroid lies outside the face. This allows you to apply domes to irregularly shaped contours.

SKECTH: The sketch is the basis for a 3D model. You can create a sketch on any of the default planes (Front Plane, Top Plane, and Right Plane), or a created plane.

CUT EXTRUDE: You can use the Extrude tool to remove material by projecting a sketched section normal to the sketching plane. You can use open or closed sections to create a cut. Removing material using a closed section creates a slot. To create a cut, use the same depth options as for extruded protrusions

BOSS EXTRUDE : To create a 3d solid by using the 2d sketch

SPLIT : The sketch lines are projected onto the selected faces, and divide the faces into multiple regions as defined by the sketch. Once the split line is created, these selected regions can have a different appearance than the other regions, and function as a separate face. This tool is used to project an entity onto other surface or curved or planar faces. You can also split faces on multiple bodies with one command.

FILLET : This feature creates a rounded internal or external face on the part. You can Fillet all the edges of a face, edges, loops etc.

FILLET: This feature creates a rounded internal or external face on the part. You can Fillet all the edges of a face, edges, loops etc.

SHELL : The shell tool hollows out a part, leaves open the faces you select, and creates thin-walled features on the remaining faces. If you do not select any face on the model, you can shell a solid part, creating a closed, hollow model. You can also shell a model using multiple thicknesses
