Design And Modeling Vocab

Subject : engineering
Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. The surface that 2D profiles can be sketched on.






2. To move in a circle about a central axis.






3. A form of pictorial drawing in which vanishing points are used to provide the depth and distortion that is seen with the human eye.






4. Used to describe the size and location of individual geometric shapes.






5. To add explanatory notes to.






6. Parallel to the X axis.






7. Construct or manufacture an industrial product.






8. A heavy solid line used on a drawing to represent the outline of an object.






9. A preliminary visual of a possible idea for a design. Most thumbnail sketches are not full- size and have little detail. They are intended to quickly explore possible alternative designs.






10. Designed to be practical and useful.






11. A change or correction made as a result of editing.






12. Lying in the same straight line.






13. Circles or arcs that share the same center.






14. Views is shorthand for multiview projection - which is a system used to view an object. The six mutually perpendicular directions any object may be viewed are top - front - right- side - rear - left- side - and bottom. Top - front - and right- side v






15. The documents that are required for something or that give evidence or proof of something. A drawing or printed information that contains instructions for assembling - installing - operating - and servicing.






16. A cylindrical recess around a hole - usually to receive a bolt head or nut.






17. The use of a computer to assist in the process of designing a part - circuit - building - etc.






18. A model devised to expose its parts for study - training or testing.






19. A closed geometric figure in a plane formed by connecting line segements endpoint to endpoint with each segment intersecting exactly two others. Polygons are classified by the number of sides they have - such as a triangle has three sides - a quadril






20. A straight line or plane that touches a curve or curved surface at one point.






21. Having the dimensions of height and width - height and depth - or width and depth only.






22. Parallel to the Y axis.






23. A form of pictorial drawing in which all three drawing axes form equal angles of 120 degrees with the plane of projection.






24. Also called line width. The thickness of a line - characterized as thick or thin.






25. A method of representing three- dimensional objects on a plane having only length and breadth.






26. A point in space - usually located on the horizon - where parallel edges of an object appear to converge.






27. A line type that represents an edge that is not directly visible because it is behind or beneath another surface.






28. Restrictions applied to geometric entities; for example - horizontal - parallel - perpendicular - and tangent.






29. A detailed description of the design and materials used to make something






30. A sequential record of the construction steps in a 3D modeling program






31. The distance from front to back.






32. Turning around an axis or center point.






33. A triangle that has a 90 degree angle.






34. Cut off irregular or unwanted parts.






35. A rounded interior blend between two surfaces. Some uses are to strengthen joining surfaces or to allow a part to be removed from a mold.






36. Lines - planes - or surfaces side by side and having the same distance continuously between them.






37. A distinctive attribute or aspect.






38. To imagine the visual form of an object or situation that one cannot see.






39. Thin lines capped with arrowheads - which may be broken along their length to provide space for the dimension numerals.






40. At an angle of 90






41. The measurement or extent of something from side to side.






42. Explanatory notes added to a drawing.






43. The measurement of someone or something from head to foot or from base to top.






44. A straight line passing from side to side through the center of a circle or sphere.






45. Attach or position securely.






46. A measurable extent - such as the three principal dimensions of an object of width - height - and depth.






47. A visual - mathematical - or three- dimensional representation in detail of an object or design - often smaller than the original. A model is often used to test ideas - make changes to a design - and to learn more about what would happen to a similar






48. A method of realistic drawing in which the part of an object closest to the viewer is a planar face - and all the lines describing sides perpendicular to that face can be extended back to converge at one point - the vanishing point






49. The amount by which something is out of line.






50. A line type that is used to indicate the axis of symmetry for a part or feature.
