Salient features of this book

are as follows:
� Tutorial Approach: The author has adopted
the tutorial pointof-view with learn-by-doing theme
throughout the textbook. This approach guides the
users through the process of creating the models in
the tutorials.
� Real-World Projects as Tutorials: The author has
used about 43 real-world mechanical engineering projects
as tutorials in this book. This enables the readers to relate these
tutorials to the real-world models in the mechanical engineering
industry. In addition, there are about 40 exercises that are also based
on the real-world mechanical engineering projects.
� Tips and Notes: Additional information is provided throughout the
textbook in the form of tips and notes.
� Heavily Illustrated Text: The text in this book is heavily illustrated
with about 1200 line diagrams and screen capture images.
� Learning Objectives: The first page of every chapter summarizes the
topics that are covered in it.
� Self-Evaluation Test, Review Questions, and Exercises: Every chapter ends with a
Self-Evaluation test so that the users can assess their knowledge of the chapter. The answers to the Self-
Evaluation test are given at the end of the chapter. Also, the Review Questions and Exercises are given at the
end of each chapter that can be used by the Instructors as test questions and exercises.

About the BOOK

CATIA V5-6R2014 for Engineers and Designers textbook introduces the readers to CATIA V5-6R2014, one of the world’s
