This volume develops a unified and systematic theory of intrinsic and relational dimensioning using the powerful notion of congruence.  \u003cp\u003ePacked with illustrative examples and exercises, it explains how basic geometric knowledge can be used to understand and approach various dimensioning challenges and provides valuable methods for parameterizing geometric models. This valuable reference discusses how dimensional constraints are resolved and managed and offers effective techniques to dimension and parameterize solids.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“This textbook provides a rigorous mathematical foundation for the common engineering activity of dimensioning and tolerancing in the context of computer-aided design CAD.
