brainstorming - correct answer A method of problem solving in which ideas are listed by participants. The ideas should be as creative and wide-ranging as possible. Only after all ideas have been collected are they evaluated. co2 scrubber - correct answer A device used to remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from air. CAD - correct answer Computer Aided Design. An earlier meaning is Computer Aided Drafting, which refers to more primitive software. CAD is to drawing as the word processor is to creating documents. CAD enables creating sophisticated, standardized drawings that can be saved as files, edited, shared, linked and much more. CAE - correct answer (Computer Assisted Engineering) A set of tools and methods for constructing, testing and analyzing virtual models of designed objects. Chemical Engineering - correct answer The field of engineering that focuses on the production of chemicals and other products manufactured using chemical processes. Civil Engineering - correct answer The field of engineering that focuses on the design and construction of public works, such as bridges or dams, and other large facilities. Computer Engineering - correct answer Computer engineers use knowledge of electrical engineering and of computer science to design computer hardware, such as microprocessors. Ductility - correct answer The ability to permit change of shape without fracture. Electrical Engineering - correct answer The field of engineering that focuses on the application of knowledge of electricity to the design of electrical machinery and the generation and transmission of electrical power. Engineering - correct answer The application of scientific and mathematical principles for practical purposes. Engineering thus includes the design, manufacture, and operation of structures, machines and processes. Engineering Proposal - correct answer A document prepared by an engineer that describes in outline form how he or she would solve a problem described by the potential client. The purpose of the proposal is to convince the client that the proposed solution is the best one, and that the proposing engineer or firm is capable of doing the required work. Environmental Engineering - correct answer The field of engineering that focuses on the application of science and engineering principles to improving or maintaining the environment. Ethics - correct answer A system of beliefs of what is right and what is wrong. Geosynchronous Satellite - correct answer A satellite that repeatedly follows a set path over the Earth. Such satellites are used as part of communications networks. Geostationary satellites are geosynchronous satellites that are always positioned above the same point on Earth. Thus, the antennae on Earth that communicate with these satellites only have to point in one direction, and are thus less expensive than those that have to follow satellites as they move through the sky. Homogeneous - correct answer A substance or material that is uniform in structure or composition throughout. Hydraulics - correct answer The science of the behavior of fluids. Hydraulics is used in many machines - for example, the arms of earth moving equipment are moved under hydraulic power. Industrial Engineering - correct answer Industrial engineering focuses on designing and improving systems consisting of people, machinery, money, material and processes, all for maximum efficiency and effectiveness. Innovation - correct answer The creation of a new device or method following study and experimentation. Lathe - correct answer A machining tool that uses a moving tool to remove materials from a rotating workpiece. Lifecycle Environmental Assessment - correct answer An analysis performed on the total damage caused to the environment by a product, including damage caused during the extraction of its raw materials, its manufacture, its transportation and packing, its use Manufacturing - correct answer The making of goods or wares by manual labor or by machinery, especially on a large scale. Mechanical Engineering - correct answer The field of engineering that focuses on the design of machines and on the generation and application of heat and mechanical power. Mentor - correct answer A person who is experienced in a particular field who makes himself or herself available to guide a younger person make his or her way in that field. A mentor offers advice on how to enter the profession, what to study, where to work and on how to handle various challenges that may present themselves in one's career. Non-destructive Testing - correct answer Methods of testing engineering designs without having to destroy the build objects. Project - An endeavor to achieve a defined goal within a specified period of time. RFP - correct answer (Request For Proposals) A company that requires engineering work to be done will generally publish an RFP. An RFP describes the work to be done and asks that interested engineers submit their proposals for doing the work. Robotics Engineering - correct answer Robotics engineers combine knowledge of mechanical, electronic and computer engineering to design the hardware and software components of robots. Salutation - correct answer A greeting, in particular a formal greeting used in a letter; an act of honor or courteous recognition. Social Science - correct answer The study of the way humans act and interact in society. Statistical Process Control (SPC) - correct answer A mathematical procedure for measuring and tracking the variability in a manufacturing process. Technology - correct answer The application of scientific knowledge in the industrial or commercial fields. Valediction - correct answer An act of bidding farewell; any word or words used to say goodbye Whistle Blowing - correct answer An engineer is required by law to report safety infringements committed by his or her employer and clients. Reporting such infringements is called whistle blowing.
