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. Circles or arcs that share the same center.






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






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






4. To add explanatory notes to.






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






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






7. Occupying the same area in space.






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






9. 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






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






11. Construct or manufacture an industrial product.






12. Explanatory notes added to a drawing.






13. A small angled surface formed between two surfaces.






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






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






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






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






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






20. A triangle that has a 90 degree angle.






21. 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






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






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






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






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






26. Attach or position securely.






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






28. 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.






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






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






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






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






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






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






35. At an angle of 90






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






37. Designed to be practical and useful.






38. Make larger in area.






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






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






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






42. Parallel to the Y axis.






43. A distinctive attribute or aspect.






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






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






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






47. Turning around an axis or center point.






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






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