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. Placed directly on a feature to identify a specific size or may be connected to a feature in the form of a note.






2. A rough drawing representing the main features of an object or scene and often made as a preliminary study.






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. The surface that 2D profiles can be sketched on.






5. Dimensions that show the exact location of parts of an object.






6. Thin lines that serve as guides while sketching or drawing.






7. Make larger in area.






8. A triangle that has a 90 degree angle.






9. Having the dimensions of height - width - and depth.






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






11. 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






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






13. Construct or manufacture an industrial product.






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






15. At an angle of 90






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






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






18. 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.






19. An outline of something as seen from one side.






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






21. A distinctive attribute or aspect.






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






23. Standardization of lines used on technical drawings by line weight and style.






24. 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






25. A straight line from the center to the circumference of a circle or sphere.






26. Circles or arcs that share the same center.






27. 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






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






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






30. Attach or position securely.






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






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






33. 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.






34. A limit to a design process. Constraints may be such things as appearance - funding - space - materials - and human capabilities. A limitation or restriction.






35. A conical- shaped recess around a hole that is often used to receive a tapered screw.






36. Occupying the same area in space.






37. Explanatory notes added to a drawing.






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






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






40. A thin solid line perpendicular to a dimension line - indicating which feature is associated with the dimension.






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






42. A small angled surface formed between two surfaces.






43. To add explanatory notes to.






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






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






46. Parallel to the Y axis.






47. Designed to be practical and useful.






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






49. 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






50. A realistic way of drawing objects in three dimensions using a horizon line - a key edge - and two vanishing points.
