The Design Process


1.	The design process always starts with
		A)	selection of required materials.
		B)	identification of a need.
		C)	analysis of gathered data.
		D)	analysis of the final cost.


2.	Each time the design of a product has to return to a previous step in the design process, it is said to go through a(n)
		A)	analysis.
		B)	reiteration.
		C)	iteration.
		D)	resolution.


3.	The second step in the design process is
		A)	resolution.
		B)	problem definition.
		C)	iteration.
		D)	analysis of solution.


4.	When developing the problem definition, requirements are considered as they pertain to risk, schedule, and
		A)	marketability.
		B)	utility.
		C)	need.
		D)	cost.


5.	Putting together the various parts or elements of the design process is
		A)	synthesis.
		B)	analysis.
		C)	organization.
		D)	assessment.


6.	The step in the design process in which mathematical equations and engineering principles are applied to determine the performance characteristics of the design is
		A)	critical analysis.
		B)	engineering analysis.
		C)	analysis and optimization.
		D)	analytical assessment.


7.	The step in the design process that involves assigning requirements for characteristics or attributes to the identified need is
		A)	assessment.
		B)	iteration.
		C)	synthesis.
		D)	problem definition.


8.	The step in the design process in which the design is reviewed by superiors or peers is
		A)	product analysis.
		B)	evaluation.
		C)	iteration.
		D)	correlation.


9.	The final step in the design process is
		A)	presentation.
		B)	engineering evaluation.
		C)	reiteration.
		D)	peer analysis.


10.	The evaluation step in the design process is used to determine if
		A)	the appropriate aesthetics have been applied to the design.
		B)	the product is functional.
		C)	the design satisfies the design definition.
		D)	all aspects of the design have been thoroughly analyzed.
