Manufacturing Process
What is the live load?
Weight that can change.
What are the steps for the design process?
Identify the problem
Develop multiple solutions
Select the best solution
Construct model or prototype
Test the model or prototype
Communicate the solution
Redesign
What are the states of matter?
-Liquid
-Solid
-Gas
What is a isometric view ?
Has two axis for depth
What is a AC supply?
Supply of varying (changing) voltage.
What is finishing?
Protects and beautifies the surface by applying a coating.
What is the first step of the design process?
Identify the problem
What is convection?
Thermal transfer through liquids and gasses
A manufacturer has a job to build a wooden chair. What part of the manufacturing process is this job?
Identify the problem
What is a DC supply?
Supply of consistent (not changing) voltage.
What is conditioning
Changes properties using heat, pressure, or chemical reaction.
After someone identifies a problem, what is the next step?
Research the problem
What is the difference between convection and radiation?
Convection is thermal transfer through liquids and gasses. Radiation is thermal transfer via electromagnetic waves
If someone is building a solar powered car and is putting paint and stickers on the car what part of the manufacturing process is this job?
Construct model or prototype
What are examples of elasticity?
Rubber bands, pogo stick etc...
What is separating?
Gives a material shape and size by removing excess material.
Which step is missing in the design process?
Identify the problem
Research the problem
Develop multiple solutions
Select the best solution
Construct model or prototype
Communicate the solution
Redesign
True or false
is the r-value the resistance to heat flow
True
What are facts about models?
Relatively inexpensive to create, Does not contain complete interior and exterior
What is the difference between density and porosity?
Density is the degree of compactness of a substance. Porosity is the measurement of the void (spaces in a material)
What are pros of using robotics in manufacturing?
-Can do things people can not do
(work w. hazardous waste, build
tiny computer chips, etc)
-Cheaper to have machine work
modify the design to solve the problem
What does a wind turbine do?
Technology that refers to air flowing through a turbine to run an electric generator and generate electricity.
What is the definition of potential difference?
The imbalance of electrons needed for current to flow which can be obtained by adding a voltage source
What does the function of a structure refer to?
How it is built (Structure)
