· emphasis

· stylised designs like engravings or etchings

What is Direction in Design?

What is Direction in Design?

Direction in design provides mood and atmosphere. Direction gives the illusion of movement within a design. There are three basic directions in design:

· horizontal

· vertical

· diagonal

What is the difference between autocad and catia?

AutoCAD is a software application that allows you to develop 2D and 3D computer designs and drafts. While Catia is also a 3D software application, it goes far beyond just common usage as draft designs. Catia is an interactive experience and is used more by engineers.

What does STL stand for in cad?

STL (STereoLithography) is a file format native to the stereolithography CAD software created by 3D Systems. STL is also known as Standard Tessellation Language. This file format is supported by many other software packages; it is widely used for rapid prototyping and computer-aided manufacturing.

Are noise and interference major propagation problems for optical fiber propagation?

No. Fiber is immune to electrical interference; there is no cross-talk between signals in different cables and no pickup of environmental noise.

What are the disadvantages of using computer aided manufacture?

CAD is making our jobs done in a really fast way. You can draw a project for example in couple of hours instead of hand drawing (which will took you nearly a week maybe). We cannot say "there are many disadvantages of CAD". But maybe a few can be listed here;

  • Fully automated solutions may have mistakes those you may not recognize.
  • A computer doesn't have the vision or experience of a human. So if there is something that needs to be cleared, machine may decide wrong. Your vision or experience will guide you to a better solution than the machine does.
  • Using machine for everything will make you think less then you should. You may not be able to improve your mind, your thinking style to solve something. Machine will do that for you.

These can be the disadvantages...

What are the advantages and disadvantages of using autocad?

ADVANTAGES

It's a

1)simple enough software with real user friendly interface.

2)Easy to grasp and if you are new at CAD, this can provide you the basic exposure

3)cheaper than most of other CADD softwares , if simple profile designing is all that you require

DISADVANTAGES

1)not so much suited for 3D as it has fewer options

2)Cannot handle complex designs

3)If you are into heavy assembly work don't rely on this softie...

How to load LISP application in GstarCAD?

How do you operate autocad?

AutoCAD is a computer-aided drafting software program that enables the user to create precise 2- and 3-dimensional drawings used in construction and manufacturing. You can run the most-recent version of AutoCAD on your Mac or PC. People who learn how to use AutoCAD can create scaled drawings that are used to manufacture equipment, plan infrastructure projects, design electrical circuitry, and build homes and commercial structures.

Can you get autocad for free if you are a student?

At this time, I believe Autodesk will provide students with a limited free version of Autocad. Check with your local college or university.

Some have downloaded illegitimate copies of Autodesk on mIrc and Torrents.

If you attend a university that has a engineering program you can get a 3 year free subscription and get any Autodesk product, including Autocad (see related link). After the 3 years is up you can renew it as long as you are still attending the university. If you do not attend a university all you can get is a 30 day free trial. See attached related link to download any of Autodesk's products for free.

What are the branches of drafting?

Architectural Drawing; drawing of primarily buldings and using wood, concrete, and steel as materials.

Structural/Bridge Drawing; detailing of structural steel and concrete materials.

Machine Drawing; drafting products and details using metals and processes of all sorts and in their various forms, such as: formed, wrought, forged, and cast.

Electrical Drawing; the making of wiring diagrams and harnesses used in buildings, ships, and machinery that use electromotive power and controls.

Electronic Drawing: the drawing of primarily low voltage DC

PC boards and controls.

Graphic Drawing; the drafting of stylized 'pictures' to represent, or render, a concept. the technical aspect is in the drafting and not as much in details.

Ship/Boat Drafting; an area of drawing using a large number of free-form shapes connected to form hulls and other parts of boats and ships.

Airframe Drafting: the drawing of free-form shapes melding with many mechanical interfaces. This discipline requires a high degree of Mil-Spec knowledge.
