Fist step of the design process
Define problem, ask the question.
What is engineering?
The branch of science and technology that helps design and build.
Client
one who wants professional support or service from a company
Second step of design process
Generate concepts, brainstorm, research
What is prosthetics?
is an artificial device that replaces a missing body part.
Budget
is a financial plan for a defined period
third step of design problem
Iterate
Repeat the process over and over until you improve your design
Constraints
limitations on the design, it can be materials, cost, time to develop the solution.
Fourth step of design process
Build and test your solution, make your prototype
Biomedical engineering
A career that applies principles and problem solving techniques of engineering to biology and medicine
Criteria
things the design needs to meet in order to be successful.
Fifth Step of design process
Evaluate your solution, evaluate your prototype
Engineering notebook
Where engineers document their work in chronological order.
Materials
the matter from which a thing is or can be made.
Sixth step of design process
Prototype
is a simple experimental model of a proposed solution used to test or validate ideas.
Design brief
A written plan that identifies a problem to be solved, its criteria, and its constraints. The design brief is used to encourage thinking of all aspects of a problem before attempting a solution.
