When making oblique sketches, the length of the _________ dimension is not too important.
receding
What is the alternate name for brainwriting?
6-3-5 method
The paradigm of _____ is sometimes referred to as design for manufacturability.
concurrent engineering
The first constraint usually applied to a new sketch is a _______ constraint, which serves as an anchor to fix the geometry in space.
ground
In a sketch, the length of the extrusion or angle of rotation also must be specified. There are several options for defining the length of the extrusion, but the simplest is to specify a _________ extrusion.
blind
Adding material to or removing material from the original model can create a more complex model. When material is added, a(n) ________ is created.
protrusion
The various protrusions and cuts on the main body of a model are called ____________.
features
A blend (loft feature) requires at least _________ profile sketch(es), and the model is formed be a smooth transition between these profiles.
two
A __________ feature removes most of the interior volume of a solid model, leaving a relatively this wall of material that closely conforms to the outer surfaces of the original model.
shell
A ___________ feature creates a boss or cut by moving a profile along a path.
swept
A _____________ is a mathematical representation of a physical object that includes the surfaces and the interior material, usually including a computer-based simulation that produces a visual display of an object as if it existed in three dimensions.
solid model
A feature created by the addition of a solid volume to a model is called a(n) ___________.
protrusion
A planar sketch that is used to create a solid is called a _____________.
profile
A system that allows the user to vary the dimensions of the model is called ___________ solid modeling.
parametric
The attributes of features, such as dimensions, that can be modified are called ____________.
parameters
A smooth transition of the internal edge created by intersecting surfaces and tangent to both intersecting surfaces is called a _________.
fillet
A smooth transition of the external edge created by intersecting surfaces and tangent to both intersecting surfaces is called a ______.
round
A boss or cut feature that is bounded by the surfaces swept out in space by a planar profile as it is pulled along a path perpendicular to the plane of the profile is called a(n) ____________.
extruded feature
The final task of a reverse engineering project should be to consider potential ____________ of the product.
redesign
The most commonly used sets of axes for mass properties analysis calculations are either the Cartesian axes (standard x-, y-, or z-axes) or the ______ axes.
centroidal
Similar to the way the computer can solve for the moment of inertia of a complex object, the FEA method is founded on dividing the part into small pieces, which are together called a(n) ______.
mesh
Some holes, slots, and cutouts with odd geometries can be made with an operation called _______, in which a long toothed cutting tool is rapidly slid through the workpiece to form a hole or slot.
broaching
