Features: This book is compiled based on the teaching requirements of "Fundamental Requirements for Engineering Drawing Education" and the "Descriptive Geometry and Mechanical Drawing" course in the major platform of mechanical engineering, summarizing the experience gained from the teaching reform project "Reform of Teaching Content and Curriculum System for the Series Courses of Engineering Drawing and Mechanical Basics" implemented by our university in recent years. Focusing on the teaching needs of the 21st century, the book follows the cognitive pattern from three-dimensional solids to two-dimensional graphics, integrating computer-aided two-dimensional and three-dimensional design and drawing with classic engineering drawing content. It combines a series of shape design exercises, including the configuration design of plane figures, the configuration design of basic solids, the configuration design of composite bodies, the design of parts, and computer-aided shape design, as a main thread, incorporating the theory of shape design, expression methods, and teaching philosophies that should be followed, to achieve the teaching objectives of this course. This textbook is also accompanied by an electronic textbook, electronic diagrams, electronic models, and a proprietary, scientific, and efficient teaching aid software—Kaitu CAD2000, which meets the needs of multimedia teaching and is also suitable for traditional teaching methods. This book can serve as a teaching material for the courses of Descriptive Geometry and Mechanical Drawing in mechanical and near-mechanical disciplines of higher vocational colleges, as well as a reference for teachers and students of higher industrial schools such as correspondence universities, vocational colleges, and distance education institutions, as well as relevant engineering technicians.
