Study Notes
Types of Manufacturing
- Mechanical/Discrete/Solid manufacturing involves creation of solid objects, such as cars, ships, and planes
Focus of Mechanical/Discrete/Solid Manufacturing
- Shape realization: achieving the geometry (external shape and size) and matrix (internal composition and porosity) of solid objects
- Focus is on solids, with reasonable success in geometry but less success in matrix control
Energy Forms in Manufacturing
- Two primary energy forms: Heat and Force (or Pressure)
- Heat and Pressure can be applied to a point, surface, or volume, with varying temporal applications (continuous, intermittent, spike)
Classification of Manufacturing Processes
- 4D plot of variations: Temperature (cold & hot), Pressure (vacuum & pressure), Temporal (pulse, int, & continuous), and Spatial (point, area, & volume)
Notes on Learning and Knowledge
- Knowledge is transmitted by all objects, animate and inanimate; one must tune their "antenna" to receive it
- Learning is a pull, not a push; respect others' ideas and be open to unlearning and iterating
Course Overview
- This course is an introduction to basic engineering skills and manufacturing
- The course will cover the entire curriculum, but in-depth coverage will occur in other courses
- Students will learn through questioning and interactions with peers, seniors, and professors
This quiz focuses on mechanical, discrete, and solid manufacturing processes, specifically in shaping solids. It covers topics related to achieving the geometry and matrix of manufactured products. Examples include cars, ships, planes, and more.
