  2. Drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drawing

    A drawing instrument releases a small amount of material onto a surface, leaving a visible mark. The most common support for drawing is paper, although other materials, such as cardboard, vellum, wood, plastic, leather, canvas, and board, have been used. Temporary drawings may be made on a blackboard or whiteboard. Drawing has been a popular ...

  3. Drawing (manufacturing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drawing_(manufacturing)

    Drawing is a manufacturing process that uses tensile forces to elongate metal, glass, or plastic. As the material is drawn (pulled), it stretches and becomes thinner, achieving a desired shape and thickness. Drawing is classified into two types: sheet metal drawing and wire, bar, and tube drawing.

  4. Engineering drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_drawing

    The assembly drawing gives the drawing numbers of the subsequent detailed components, quantities required, construction materials and possibly 3D images that can be used to locate individual items. Although mostly consisting of pictographic representations, abbreviations and symbols are used for brevity and additional textual explanations may ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_engineering_branches

    Composite materials, materials with two or more macroscopic phases Computational materials science: The use of modeling, simulation, theory, and informatics to understand materials Electronic structure – analysis of electron energies and spatial distribution; Density functional theory – method of calculating material properties

  6. Biological illustration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_illustration

    Many details must be discussed between the artist and scientist before a final drawing can be completed, and additional preliminary drawings must be prepared in order to work out aesthetic details. Pen and ink (often a flex nib fountain pen) line illustrations are clean, crisp, clear, and inexpensive to produce, making them ideal for biological ...

    This drawing must be filed with the application. This includes practically all inventions except compositions of matter or processes, but a drawing may also be useful in the case of many processes. [13] The drawing must show every feature of the invention specified in the claims and is required by the patent office rules to be in a particular ...

  8. Area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area

    Area can be understood as the amount of material with a given thickness that would be necessary to fashion a model of the shape, or the amount of paint necessary to cover the surface with a single coat. [1] It is the two-dimensional analogue of the length of a curve (a one-dimensional concept) or the volume of a solid (a three-dimensional concept).

    The [main] field of the drawing, as opposed to other areas of it, such as the parts list , general notes (G/N), flagnotes , title block , rev block , bill of materials (B/M or BoM or BOM), or list of materials . Rationales for drawing changes that are noted in the rev block often use these abbreviations for brevity (e.g., "DIM 14.00 was 12.50 ...
