Across
  1. 2. is an iterative design process that involves a program that will generate a certain number of outputs that meet certain constraints, and a designer that will fine tune the feasible region by selecting specific output or changing input values, ranges and distribution.
  2. 4. Use the preserve geometry feature to define the bodies essential to the performance and functionality of your design. At least one body should be assigned to preserve geometry, or the outcomes generated may be useless. When assigned to bodies, preserve geometry displays in green on the canvas in Fusion 360. Loads and constraints are applied to preserve geometry. Only preserve geometry is required to conduct a generative design study.
  3. 6. The amount of time a product goes from being introduced into the market until it's taken off the shelves. There are four stages in a product's life cycle—introduction, growth, maturity, and decline.
  4. 9. are shared agreements and guidelines about how a group will work together
  5. 10. A collection of interacting parts or elements
  6. 13. Products should be designed for human comfort, efficiency, safety, and ease of use. Is the product efficient for customer use?
  7. 19. In the inspiration phase, you open yourself up to a multitude of creative possibilities. You learn how to better understand people through observing their lives and listening to their hopes and desires.
  8. 21. Product should not need major repairs within the service life, routine maintenance should be planned, and routine maintenance should be easy. How can the product be repaired?
  9. 23. the amount of carbon dioxide and other carbon compounds emitted due to the consumption of fossil fuels by a particular person, group, etc.
  10. 24. Use the obstacle geometry feature to describe or define any areas where generated designs cannot take up space. Defining these empty spaces prevents the placement of material during the generation of outcomes. When assigned to bodies, obstacle geometry displays in red on the canvas in Fusion 360. However, you can run a generative design study without any defined obstacle geometry.
  11. 25. a balance achieved between two desirable but incompatible features; a compromise.
  12. 27. is a way of helping a person to view systems from a broad perspective that includes seeing overall structures, patterns and cycles in systems, rather than seeing only specific events in the system
  13. 30. relating to, measuring, or measured by the quantity of something rather than its quality
  14. 31. Able to be measured. Something that can be quantified
  15. 32. is defined as the systematic analysis of the potential environmental impacts of products or services during their entire life cycle.
Down
  1. 1. Specify service life, product life, and/or planned obsolescence
  2. 3. In the ideation phase, many different ideas are generated. You refine those ideas, iterating on those that best meet the needs of your users. In this phase, you can build a simple prototype and test and refine your solution.
  3. 5. is a creative problem-solving process that focuses on designing from the perspective of the people you are trying to reach. The design must meet people’s needs, be useful, and be compatible with the capabilities of the user. There are three phases of the human-centered design process: inspiration, ideation, and implementation.
  4. 7. What the customer expects the product to be. What does the customer need?
  5. 8. is the action of two or more people working together through idea sharing to accomplish a common goal.
  6. 11. A list of needs and design requirements that describe what the design solution must do to meet the needs of stakeholders. What do you want it to do? How well do you want it to be done?
  7. 12. is the philosophy of designing physical objects, the built environment, and services to comply with the principles of ecological sustainability
  8. 14. the action or process of converting waste into reusable material.
  9. 15. the action of making the best or most effective use of a situation or resource.
  10. 16. In the implementation phase, your solution is brought to life. You determine how to market your idea and maximize its impact on the world.
  11. 17. is meeting the needs of the current generation without negatively impacting the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
  12. 18. A list of specifications and design requirements that define parameters or boundaries the design solution must address. These might include resources, time constraints, budget, codes, safety, energy, materials, manufacturing processes, or physical attributes (size, weight, color).
  13. 20. The way that a product looks, including color, surface treatment, shape, and material, will affect marketability, especially for a consumer item. What should the design look like?
  14. 22. the basic material from which a product is made.
  15. 26. Consider the operating environment and global environmental impact. In operating environments, products can encounter a wide range of environments (temperature, corrosion, pressure, vibration) from manufacture to operation by the customer. How does the product’s life cycle impact the environment?
  16. 28. Often chosen by the design team to meet criteria, but sometimes dictated based on special needs or availability. What should the product be made of?
  17. 29. a general agreement.
