Drawing and CAD in industrial design

摘要: Abstract Drawing is an essential component in the industrial design process, facilitating visual thinking and creativity. It constitutes one type of model, along with specifications, 3D representations CAD techniques. The process involves movement from model to another, by using different types at levels detail a fluid inventive approach facilitated. Examples schematic drawings, ideas sketches concept drawings demonstrate this product transport design. has proved be highly effective evaluative analytical development, manufacture. inherently unsuitable for innovative design, but potential contributing evolutionary as evidenced its proven effectiveness engineering optimization. Automotive almost always concerned evolution, procedures car stylists work productively are being developed Coventry Polytechnic's SERC funded research project Computer Aided Vehicle Styling. stylist's characterized holistic, right-hemisphere processes informed tacit knowledge dependent on representation. They have particular difficulties systems. Nonetheless, techniques that capitalize CAD's may applicable briefly described. conventional compared examples industry, project.
