Industrial Ceramic and Digital Designing

At the end of the course, students should be able to: 1. comprehend the preparation and blending of ceramic bodies; 2. designate the devices of characterising ceramic design materials; 3. understand how to calculate the physical and mechanical properties of ceramic design; materials such as water absorption, true density, bulk density and Modulus of Rupture, using appropriate formulae; 4. comprehend drying & firing processes; and 5. understand the relationship between the studio and industrial ceramic design techniques and forms.

The course is hinged on the application of the digital platform in the design of ceramic essentially. Conceptualization of three-dimensional ceramic forms through freehand to the use of software packages to develop the sketches into three-dimensional forms. The course enables students to use the digital tool in interpreting their works in three dimensions. Sketches will be transferred to 3-Dimensional digital modelling skills and 3D animation techniques, introductory learning about contemporary 3-D design modelling and animation will also be
