Rapid Prototyping Processes and Operations

20.3 Virtual prototyping and how it differs from additive methods Virtual prototyping refers to a technique in the product development process that involves the use of computer-aided engineering (CAE), computer-automated design (CAutoD) and computer-aided design (CAD) software. The software helps in validating a design before one goes ahead to make a visible prototype (kishorebondada, 525). We can achieve this by creating three-dimensional models and combining them to form assemblies. The software can go ahead to simulate the operation of the machine or any object under design. Additive methods, on the other hand, are layered rapid prototyping operations that include ...

Introduction

Numerous electrical applications require an inverter, which converts Direct Current (DC) to Alternating Current (AC) power. Some of these applications require the stepping down of voltage levels when realizing this conversion, which signifies that the input DC power is greater than the AC power. Conversely, certain applications require the opposite: to step up voltage when performing the power conversion, which means that the input DC power is lower than the AC power. These requirements can be met through the use of Voltage Source Inverters and Current Source Inverters, respectively. However, some particular applications require to step down voltage for ...

Abstract

Games that are created for purposes other than entertainment are called serious games. The art of applying games on a day to day actions is known as gamification. The gaming elements in serious games can be utilized to simulate reality in teaching and training environments (Crookall 2010, p. 898). Deep learning is a new approach to education and disregards the traditional method where the teacher was the all-knowing authority who passed down facts to the students (Fullan and Langworthy 2014). The traditional method did not view the learning environment as a factor that could affect the learning process. Adult ...

There are two main causes with resulting consequences in the current product design process of the 7-Series Project A at BMW. The first cause is that BMW builds their prototypes mainly by hand in their shops. These prototypes were made with handmade tools that cost very little to replace or repair. (Pisano, 2002, p.1) By using these handmade tools and various materials the engineers were given great flexibility in following the wishes of the design teams’ desires. It was easy to change small and large details within each part when doing it by hand. There were no special tools ...

When an entity conceives an original idea or concept that can benefit the society, such an entity should benefit from the fruits of their labour. Intellectual property laws build on this premise and seek to safeguard intellectual assets, such as formulas, inventions, innovative development, and creative work, from exploitation by third parties. For an invention to qualify as intellectual property, it must meet particular requirements. Primarily, the invention has to be novel. This means it does not exist in any other form or as a different artifact. The general term used to denote previously existing form, such as written ...

The article “New Definition of Addiction Causing Controversy Among Doctors” basically gives a broader explanation of what addiction is.

Towards a Newer Laocoon

Every single art can have a dominant role. If a particular artwork seems to be more dominating than most of the other artworks, that particular artwork could be a prototype that other artists could use in developing their art. This is what typically happens no matter how much an artist may deny it. They usually adopt ideas from other artist, use them as prototype and make their own ideas and then apply such to their own artworks. Although some characteristics could be imitated, it could still be called unique. The cycle goes on and on until a new generation of artworks or an ...

Introduction to prototyping

1.1 Definition and objectives A prototype is a functional model that works similar to the component of the product. In most cases, the client only has the general perspective of what is expected from the product of software. In such a situation where there is no detailed information concerning the system input, processing requirements and the output requirements, the prototyping model can be used. Prototyping has a number of objectives. First, it is employed in order to overcome the possible client misinterpretation and also to test technical feasibility of the proposed design and its purpose. Next is that it is meant ...
