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. An outline of something as seen from one side.






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






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






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






5. Parallel to the Y axis.






6. To add explanatory notes to.






7. 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






8. Occupying the same area in space.






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






10. A triangle that has a 90 degree angle.






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






12. 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






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






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






15. At an angle of 90






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






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






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






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






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






21. A full- scale working model used to test a design concept by making actual observations and necessary adjustments.






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






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






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






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






26. Circles or arcs that share the same center.






27. Lines that are thin and used to connect a specific note to a feature.






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






35. A flat surface on which a straight line joining any two points would wholly lie.






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






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






38. Attach or position securely.






39. 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






40. A distinctive attribute or aspect.






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






42. Explanatory notes added to a drawing.






43. A small angled surface formed between two surfaces.






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






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






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






47. The distance from front to back.






48. A proportion between two sets of dimensions used in developing accurate - larger or smaller prototypes - or models of design ideas.






49. An iterative decision - making process that produces plans by which resources are converted into products or systems that meet human needs and wants or solve problems.






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