MECART – A SPECIAL PROJECT
Journal Title: Journal of Industrial Design and Engineering Graphics - Year 2015, Vol 10, Issue 2
Abstract
This paper presents a new project, called “MecArt”, developed at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, University "POLITEHNICA" of Timişoara. MecArt started as a contest for students and pupils from Timişoara, passionate about graphics, painting, sculpture or poetry, but also being attracted to Mechanical Engineering. The authors have conducted the 3D Modeling section of the contest. This was a teaching challenge, because the participants were not required to have any prior knowledge of a 3D modeling software. The paper highlights the multiple facets of the MecArt project and its results.
