Which describes the "Identify the Problem" part of the Engineering Design Process?
Identification occurs when someone realizes that a problem exists that needs to be solved.
Definition occurs when someone realizes exactly what the problem is.
the requirements the solution must meet, such as what it must do.
the limitations on the solution, such as a maximum size or budget.
Which describes the "Criteria" part of the Engineering Design Process?
Identification occurs when someone realizes that a problem exists that needs to be solved.
Definition occurs when someone realizes exactly what the problem is.
the requirements the solution must meet, such as what it must do.
the limitations on the solution, such as a maximum size or budget.
Which describes the "test solutions" part of the Engineering Design Process?
by thinking of possible solutions to the problem.
considering the pros and cons of the possible solutions.
by trying them out to see how well they work.
thinking of ways the design could be better.
What two things determine whether or not engineering solutions are successful?
If it stays within the constraints
If it looks cool
If it solves a problem
If it meets the criteria
_________________________ is how people change the world around them to meet their needs or to solve problems
Systems
Processes
Technology
Science
A series of steps engineers use to develop and design the best possible solution to a problem.
Design
Design Process
Design Brief
Design Blueprint
Repeating the construct and test step of the Design Process until the prototype meets all of the project criteria.
Criteria
Constraints
Dimension
Iteration
Specific items or details that must be included in the final version of the design.
Criteria
Constraints
Dimension
Iteration
The process of understanding a problem, devising a plan, carrying out the plan, and evaluating the plan in order to solve a problem or meet a need or want.
Brainstorming
Investigate
Problem Solving
Evaluate
To assess or check whether the design meets the specific project criteria.
Brainstorming
Investigate
Problem Solving
Evaluate
A person who designs any of a variety of things to solve practical problems, using science, technology, and math.
Engineer
Prototype
Problem Solving
Brainstorming
Is the first step in the design process. Includes the problem being identified, validated, and justified. The design requirements are determined and the design brief is created.
prototype
Valid
define the problem
present solution
construct/test prototype
A group technique for solving problems, generating ideas, stimulating creative thinking, etc. by unrestrained spontaneous participation in discussion
define the problem
Iterative
evaluate solution
develop solution
brainstorm
Of criteria and constraints, which one includes the desired functions and features of the solution?
criteria
constraints
Of criteria and constraints, which includes the limitations on the design, such as size and weight limitations and time and funds restrictions?
criteria
constraints
Together, the criteria and constraints form the requirements of the desired solution.
No
Yes
