The use of a computer to assist in the process of designing a part, circuit, building, etc.
|
|
|
Chamfer
|
A small angled surface formed between two surfaces.
|
|
|
Coincident
|
Occupying the same area in space.

Collinear
|
Lying in the same straight line.
|
|
|
Concentric
|
Circles or arcs that share the same center.
|
|
|
Constraint
|
A limit to a design process. Constraints may be such things as appearance, funding, space, materials, and human capabilities. A limitation or restriction.
|
|
|
Counterbore
|
A cylindrical recess around a hole, usually to receive a bolt head or nut.
|
|
|
Countersink
|
A conical-shaped recess around a hole that is often used to receive a tapered screw.
|
|
|
Design
|
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.
|
|
|
Dimension Constraint
|
Used to describe the size and location of individual geometric shapes.
|
|
|
Documentation
|
The documents that are required for something or that give evidence or proof of something. A drawing or printed information that contains instructions for assembling, installing, operating, and servicing.
|
|
|
Edit
|
A change or correction made as a result of editing.
|
|
|
Extend
|
Make larger in area.
|
|
|
Feature
|
A distinctive attribute or aspect.
|
|
|
Fillet
|
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.
|
|
|
Fabricate
|
Construct or manufacture an industrial product.
|
|
|
Fix
|
Attach or position securely.
|
|

|
Geometric Constraints
|
Restrictions applied to geometric entities; for example, horizontal, parallel, perpendicular, and tangent.
|
|
|
Horizontal
|
Parallel to the X axis.
|
|
|
Isometric
|
A form of pictorial drawing in which all three drawing axes form equal angles of 120 degrees with the plane of projection.
|
|
|
Mockup
|
A model devised to expose its parts for study, training or testing.
|
|
|
Model
|
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, real object.
|
|
|
Offset
|
The amount by which something is out of line.
|
|
|
Parallel
|
Lines, planes, or surfaces side by side and having the same distance continuously between them.
|
|
|
Perpendicular
|
At an angle of 90˚ to a given line, plane, or surface.
|
|
|
Polygon
|
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 quadrilateral has four sides, and a pentagon has five sides.
|
|
|
Profile
|
An outline of something as seen from one side.
|
|
|
Prototype
|
A full-scale working model used to test a design concept by making actual observations and necessary adjustments.
|
|
|
Revolve
|
To move in a circle about a central axis.
|
|
|
Right Triangle
|
A triangle that has a 90 degree angle.

|
|
|
Trim
|
Cut off irregular or unwanted parts.
