Relationship between modeling and models. Basic concepts and definition of models. Classification of models: by application, type, ration, material. Procedure of making models and the use of materials. Examples of models. Practical, individual work on making the model.

Introductory lecture and the rest is the practice in the modeling laboratory. Consultations.
