In this new tutorial series focused on product modeling and rendering, we'll create the Tassimo T-65 Coffee Machine and Espresso Maker from Bosch. Starting in 3d Studio Max we'll use a few simple blueprint images to do a block-out of the base, and then begin the process of breaking down and refining the model using more advanced poly modeling techniques to create the final High-res asset .

This book explores the process of modeling complex systems in the widest sense of that term, drawing on examples from such diverse fields as ecology, epidemiology, sociology, seismology, as well as economics. It also provides the mathematical tools for studying the dynamics of these systems. Boccara takes a carefully inductive approach in defining what it means for a system to be "complex" (and at the same time addresses the equally elusive concept of emergent properties). This is the first text on the subject to draw comprehensive conclusions from such a wide range of analogous phenomena.

In this Blender 2.5 training course, we take you through the complete process of modeling a hard-surface, highly detailed M4 assault rifle. You will learn how to model each and every part, in real time.

Power Electronic Packaging presents an in-depth overview of power electronic packaging design, assembly,reliability and modeling. Since there is a drastic difference between IC fabrication and power electronic packaging, the book systematically introduces typical power electronic packaging design, assembly, reliability and failure analysis and material selection so readers can clearly understand each task's unique characteristics.

Computer graphics systems are capable of generating stunningly realistic images of objects that have never physically existed. In order for computers to create these accurately detailed images, digital models of appearance must include robust data to give viewers a credible visual impression of the depicted materials.

Electromagnetic vibration transducers are seen as an effective way of harvesting ambient energy for the supply of sensor monitoring systems. Different electromagnetic coupling architectures have been employed but no comprehensive comparison with respect to their output performance has been carried out up to now.

Features software workshops for 3ds Max, Maya, CINEMA 4D, Lightwave, and Softimage XSI.
Hot, hotter, hottest. See how todays leading modeling artists create 3D characters that sizzle and get the techniques youll need to create your own virtual vixens.

In this series of tutorials, we will talk about the steps that we went through in order to build the character and weapon models for our Unity mobile game project. We will start by referencing our game document, which will be our guide through the process of creating our Unity game. We can find information on the look of our models but also on the desired resolutions of the models and textures.

In this Skill-Builder tutorial, we will talk about the process of interpreting different shapes and creating geometry in efficient ways.

Safety and Risk Modeling presents the latest theories and methods of safety and risk with an emphasis on safety and risk in modeling. It covers applications in several areas including transportations and security risk assessments, as well as applications related to current topics in safety and risk. Safety and Risk Modeling is a valuable resource for understanding the latest developments in both qualitative and quantitative methods of safety and risk analysis and their applications in operating environments.

In this tutorial we will sculpt and prepare a digital model for 3D printing. Throughout these lessons we will create a character that will eventually be milled out of polystyrene at over 40 feet tall for a theme park in Holland. We will cover all of the conceptual stages and prepare a high resolution version for a video rotation. Then we will process the ZTool and convert it to a known 3D printable format.

Description: In this tutorial we will use ZBrush's hard surface modeling techniques to build a mechanical creature. The idea here is to become more familiar with hard surface creation in ZBrush. we will begin with some custom brush creation and then move on to creating our own custom meshes to be used in conjunction with ZBrush's Insert Mesh tools.
