Chapter 7
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Aesthetics | the branch of philosophy dealing with such notions as the beautiful, the ugly, the sublime, the comic, etc. |
| Assumption | An assumption is something that you assume to be the case, even without proof. For example, people might make the assumption that you're a nerd if you wear glasses, even though that's not true. Or very nice. |
| Computational Fluid Dynamics | Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is the use of applied mathematics, physics and computational software to visualize how a gas or liquid flows -- as well as how the gas or liquid affects objects as it flows past. |
| Constructing and manipulating abstract (mathematical and/or graphical) representations of economic, engineering, manufacturing, social, and other types of situations and natural phenomenon. | |
| Engineering Economics | Engineering is the application of mathematics, as well as scientific, economic, social, and practical knowledge to invent, innovate, design, build, maintain, research, and improve structures. |
| In engineering, deflection is the degree to which a structural element is displaced under a load. It may refer to an angle or a distance. | |
| Function | Function (engineering) In engineering, a function is interpreted as a specific process, action or task that a system is able to perform. |
| geographic information system (GIS) is a system designed to capture, store, manipulate, analyze, manage, and present spatial or geographic data. | |
| Mathematical models are used particularly in the natural sciences and engineering disciplines (such as physics, biology, and electrical engineering) but also in the social sciences | |
| Mock-Up | A mock-up is a smaller model or replica of something that will eventually be built or that's used for teaching. When an engineer designs a new kind of airplane, she'll first make a mock-up. |
| The oral presentation means delivering an address to a public audience. It also refers to public speaking and/or speech-making. | |
| Predictive Analysis | Predictive engineering analytics (PEA) is a development approach for the manufacturing industry that helps with the design of complex products (for example, products that include smart systems). |
| Reverse engineering, also called back engineering, is the processes of extracting knowledge or design information from anything man-made and reproducing it or reproducing anything based on the extracted information. |
