IED vs. Art • Similar to art class • More principles of design rather than artistic expression through mediums such as sculpture • Learn to sketch products (i.e. water bottles, jet engines) • Modeling: CAD software, mathematical , mockup, prototyped
Units 1. Design Process 2. Technical Sketching 3. Measuring and statistics 4. Modeling Skills 5. Geometry of Design 6. Reverse Engineering 7. Documentation 8. Advanced Computer Modeling 9. Design Team 10.Design Challenges
Puzzle cube • Design a 3D puzzle using wooden blocks 1. Sketched: create and communicate ideas Box sketches and shaded 2. CAD: Used Inventor with final design Made presentation 3. Mathematical modeling Used dial calipers to measure 50 wooden blocks Statistics: standard deviation from mean, so the cube would be uniform and fit together smoothly 4. Modeling: Mock up with tape Prototype: glued and painted--- some cubes would go together in more than one way
S UMMARY • Learned the Basics of design • Learned Sketching and CAD modeling • No Particular engineering discipline
