Time, Cost, Errors etc
All headaches such as these related to precad industry have all been drastically reduced.
For instance in the example of an exploding cylinder.
You can model that in seconds and then set up FEA experiments in a few more minutes. Then a few more minutes to run them.
Excluding the cost of initial purchase of the software the experiment only costs the amount of time required for the CAD monkey to set it up.
To setup a physical experiement would be really expensive and really time consuming. As the cylinder would have to be tested first to test the equipment. Then the gauges would have to be attached and then tested. But wait you cant reuse the cylinder or the gauges. The exploding can has been blown up. So you have to do the setup and testing again. Think about it.... EXPENSIVE gauges and technicians arnt cheap.
So you might be thinking we should just do FEA. That's a complicated issue. But from my experience the best method is 3 fold! The best things happen in 3's!
1) Theoretical: When coming up with a sketch or a doodle of a design do some math. For me math only cost me a packet of pringles and a glass bottle or irn bru. Once you have decided that it could theoretically be possible move onto the next step...
2) FEA: Build it and test that design. Optimise it using the tools until the design is adjusted so that if performs to the correct spec then move on....
3) Experimental: Do the physical test to prove the results you got from your multiple FEA studies. If you've got you sum and FEA right you will only have to do this test once. But if you've not got the previous two step right you might have to do it again.
From what ive seen, based on result accuracy, this process is like the RAF symbol.... Theoretical is the Blue outer ring, FEA is the White center ring and Experimental is the Red inner ring. Each one is more accurate than the other so you have to balance out what you want to spend with how accurate you want to be.
benefits of cad in technical graphic communication
Me personally as a drawer would use a CAD because it has a finer point.
GUI = Graphic User Interface. CAD = Computer Aided Design. CAM = Computer Aided Manufacturing.
cad
It means 60 from the date the customer receives the goods. CAD = Cash Against Documents
While the acronym has many meaning, the most common reference is to the Canadian dollar. The acronym CAD is also used in the design world to indicated computer-aided design. The meaning of the acronym can best be determined by its context.
The definition is "computer aided design"
It depends on the software used to write the CAD file.
GUI = Graphic User Interface. CAD = Computer Aided Design. CAM = Computer Aided Manufacturing.
You should enter A CAD class. (Computer Aided Design)
Graphic packages are those programs that allow artist and computer users to use computers to create, edit, display and print graphic images. Examples include Paint, Adobe Photoshop, Corel Draw, and CAD (computer aided design).
In order to get a good education in getting into CAD drafting jobs, you need to have a good grounding in technical drawing at high school. If that is not available, you go to a vocational college that provides CAD drafting courses.
Cad means someone guilty or capable of ungentlemanly conduct-it was a term ( like bounder)more frequently used in educated circles a generation ago. Today more graphic,blunt descriptions are used.
Training through a technical or community college. Visit your local college for more detailed course shedule.
CAD software, which stands for Computer Aided Design.
cad software is a software that will provide computer based digital format for represented 2d and 3d objects. cad training would teach you how to work the program and could be extremely helpful for engineering, design, architectural courses, and much more.
CAD stands for Computer Aided Design. There are multiple categories of CAD systems: 1. 2D CAD - a typical example is AutoCAD 2. 3D CAD - a typical example is SolidWorks The classification of CAD systems can go into vertical specialization 1. Mechanical mainstream CAD - i.e. SolidWorks, Autodesk Inventor, SolidEdge 2. Electrical CAD - i.e. Cadence, Mentor 3. AEC - SketchUp, various Autodesk packages In addition to that, there is a special class of highly specialized design systems that can be considered as CAD as well: 1. CATIA (from Dassault System) 2. NX (from Siemens PLM) 3. Creo-Parametric (former Pro-E, from PTC) Also, there are lots of specialized systems that embed CAD functionality to provide 2D and 3D graphic.

CAD stands for computer-aided design and drafting (CADD). It is technology for design and technical documentation, it is the use of computers to aid in the creation ,modification, analysis of a design.
