NURBS Modeling with Rhinoceros
This afforable self-paced CD course aims to teach NURBS (Non Uniform Rational Based Spline Curves) modeling in detail with Rhinoceros. This unique study material was prepared by experienced faculty with years of working experience.
Learn Rhinoceros inside and out with major commands explained within the tutorial. Students can easily work with Rhinoceros after finishing the video tutorials on the CD.
The study material is divided into easy step-by-step learning exercises spread out over 10 days.
