PRACTICAL ASPECT OF DESIGN SOFTWARE
3. INTRODUCTION TO THE TERM DESIGN:
THE TERM DESIGN MEANS TO PROVIDE A SUITABLE SOLUTION TO
ONE’S PROBLEM OR YOU CAN SAY IN OTHER WORDS BREAK THE
PROBLEM TO ITS SIMPLEST FORM TO GET ITS SOLUTION.
DESIGN IS THE AREA OF HUMAN EXPERTISE, SKILL AND KNOWLEDGE
WHICH IS ASSOCIATED WITH ONE’S APTITUDE TO MODIFY ONE’S
SURROUNDINGS TO MATCH HIS OR HER NEED.
THINKING
DESIGNING REAL PRODUCT
4. DESIGN PROCEDURE USED IN
INDUSTRIES:
• CAD Computer Aided Designing
• CAA (CAE) Computer Aided Analysis
• CAM Computer Aided manufacturing
There is a new addition of CAE stands for Computer Aided Engineering to improve
the previous one.
CAE includes Analysis of the designed product before its manufacturing.
