AAS - correct answers Associate in Applied Sciences degree
Adaptive Part - correct answers Parts created in place and parts placed from part files can both be defined as adaptive. Adaptive parts have under constrained features that resize according to their placement in an assembly. Features designated as adaptive in the part file can change size and shape when constrained to fixed geometry in an assembly.
Absolute Coordinates - correct answers A method of plotting points whereby distances are measured from the origin.
Absorption - correct answers Ability of a substance to reduce the intensity of light radiation by converting the energy into another form.
Acute Angle - correct answers An angle less than 90 degrees.
Adaptive Design - correct answers An existing part can be defined adaptive within the assembly, thus allowing its features to resize and change shape when one constrains them to other components
Adaptive Feature - correct answers A feature that can resize when constrained to other features. Features are usually constrained to a specified size, unless they are designated as adaptive. A part that is not constrained to a specified size or shape.
Additive - correct answers Creating a three-dimensional shape by adding additional shapes/mass to the model.
Aesthetic - correct answers Designing products with an artistic flair and its forms and effects to influence consumers' choice when purchasing products. Aligned Dimensioning - correct answers Dimensioning technique that requires all numerals, figures, and notes be aligned
with the dimension lines so that they may be read from the bottom and from the right side of the sheet.
Allowance - correct answers The difference between the maximum and minimum material conditions.
Analysis - correct answers The detailed examination of something in order to understand it better or draw conclusions from it.
Angle - correct answers The figure formed by the intersection of two lines at a point.
Angle Constraint - correct answers The angle constraint positions, edges, or planar faces on two components at a specified angle to define a pivot point. Removes one degree of angular rotation.
Angular Dimensioning Method - correct answers Dimensioning method used for angular surfaces in which one linear dimension is given to locate one of the endpoints of the angle, and an angular measurement is also given.
Annotated Sketch - correct answers A detailed sketch that is labeled with critical dimensions, notes and symbols.
Annotate - correct answers A note added to a text or document to clarify or explain further.
Annotating - correct answers Process of adding notes and dimensions to a model or drawing.
ANSI - correct answers (American National Standards Institute) Establishes the standards for drafting in the United States.
Arc - correct answers A part of a circle.
Architecture - correct answers The science and art of planning for the building structures. Artifact - correct answers An historical object, relic, manufactured article, or a work of art.
Artistic - correct answers Work done skillfully and tastefully.
Assembly Browser - correct answers The browser presents the content of an assembly in a hierarchy. Components are listed in the order in which they are placed in the assembly.
Assembly Constraint - correct answers Removes the degrees of freedom between two selected components, positioning them relative to one another.
Assembly Model - correct answers A model made up of two or more components that have been constrained together.
Automation - correct answers An apparatus that works or moves by responding to preset controls or computerized instruction.
Auxiliary View - correct answers A view that is used to show the detail of a surface when it is not parallel to one of the principle planes of projection. The auxiliary projection plane is parallel to the inclined surface of the object, and represents features on the surface in true shape and true size.
AVI - correct answers (Advanced Visual Interface) A standard file format for audio/visual clips.
Axis - correct answers Primary direction in a coordinate system
Axonometric - correct answers A drawing only partially to scale, used to describe a method of drawing a three-
dimensional object so that the vertical and horizontal axes are drawn to scale, but the curves and diagonals appear distorted.
Balance - correct answers A Principle of Design. Pleasing harmony of various elements in a product, print media, or art form.
Bar Graph - correct answers A graph that uses lines or bars that are horizontal or vertical to represent a quantity. Base Component - correct answers The first component placed in an assembly should be a fundamental part or sub-
assembly, such as a frame or base plate, on which the rest of the assembly is built.
Bisector - correct answers A plane, line, or ray that cuts an angle into two equal parts.
Blister Pack - correct answers Type of package that has a thin material backing and a vacuum sealed piece of clear plastic
covering the product.
Brainstorming - correct answers A method of generating creative ideas spontaneously, usually for problem-solving, and especially in an intensive group discussion that does not allow time for reflection. It is part of the design process.
Browser Editing - correct answers A function within Autodesk Inventor which allows one to edit the history of the design.
Browser Hierarchy - correct answers In Autodesk Inventor, the browser contents correspond to the current assembly file. The hierarchy beneath the top-level assembly can expand to show the parts and sub-assemblies placed in the assembly. If additional detail is available below an entry in the assembly browser, it is indicated by a plus sign. For a sub-
assembly, parts and other sub-assemblies are listed. For a part, features are listed. Just click the plus sign to expand the entry. There is no limit to the levels of nesting in the browser. One can use the scroll bars on the side and bottom of the browser window to view additional detail.
BS - correct answers Bachelor of Science degree
Career - correct answers A profession or occupation that one trains for and pursues as a life work.
Career Clusters - correct answers Groups of occupational titles in related fields.
Cartesian Coordinate System - correct answers A rectangular coordinate system created by three perpendicular axes labeled X, Y, and Z.
Center Line - correct answers A line consisting of a long dash followed by a short dash, that is used to show and locate the centers of arcs and circles, and to describe the center axis of a cylindrical form.
