Investigate the use of advanced materials in aircraft design, such as composites or nanomaterials, and their potential benefits and limitations.
Although 3D modeling can describe part and assembly configuration in accurate detail, many parts or features are rarely included in a model until very late in the process if included at all. List four parts or features that fall into this category, and give reasons for omitting detail.
Two students decided to print a prototype
for a gear. Student A use layer thickness
of .1 mm and an infill density of
25%. Student B use a layer thickness of
0.07 mm and an infill density of 45%.
Which student will take less time to print
the gear?
Select one:
Stu nt since the ckness of
layer is smaller and the infill density
is higher.
O We can't decide which process takes
less time
O Student A since the thickness of the
layer is larger and the infill density is
lower.
Student B because thickness is
higher than B and the infill density
has no effect on the process speed.
Student A because thickness is
higher than B and the infill density
has no effect on the process speed.
