Transcript of Design-Definition of Mockup
INTRODUCTIONDEFINITION:A mock-up is only supposed to look like the realthing, but it doesn't have to work at all. Used fortrade shows, marketing ("this is what it will look like")and ergonomic studies ("is it comfortable in yourhand?")
A prototype has to look and work like the realthing. It actually is the real thing, but it's the first unitand you know you'll probably have to change a fewthings before you start manufacturing it. It is used fortesting and real demonstration purposes ("see, itreally works!", "how fast can it really go?")
INTRODUCTIONDEFINITION:In manufacturing and design, a mockup,or mock-up, is a scale or full-size model of adesign or device, used for teaching,demonstration, design evaluation, promotion, andother purposes.A mockup is a prototype if it provides at least partof the functionality of a system and enablestesting of a design.
WHY MOCKUP?Mock-ups are used by designers mainly to acquirefeedback from users.
You can fix it now on the drafting board with aneraser or you can fix it later on the construction sitewith a sledge hammer.
To evaluate the balance of product shape, structure,material suitability, safety, and the manufacturingmethod.
INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTIONADDITIONAL INFORMATION…
Digital MockUp or DMU is a concept that allows the description of aproduct, usually in 3D, for its entire life cycle. Digital Mockup isenriched by all the activities that contribute to describing the product.The product design engineers, the manufacturing engineers, andthe support engineers work together to create and managethe DMU. One of the objectives is to have an important knowledge ofthe future or the supported product to replace anyphysical prototypes with virtual ones, using 3D computergraphics techniques.
As an extension it is also frequently referred to as DigitalPrototyping or Virtual Prototyping. These two specific definitions referto the production of a physical prototype, but they are part of the DMUconcept. DMU allows engineers to design and configure complexproducts and validate their designs without ever needing to build aphysical model.
APPLICATIONAutomotive Styling – CLAY MODELINGBefore a new car model is launched, a long period of creating theright design takes place. Even today, computer model are notsufficient to evaluate a design. Therefore 1:4 or even 1:1 models arebuilt to get an impression of the final car.
Although the arrival of the computer aided design programme CADat the end of 20th century has sped up the initial design steps,studios still very much rely on having an original-sized 3D modelmade out of modelling clay.
How? These models are created in clay, and usually consist of awooden or iron frame which is covered with STYROFOAM.Clay is smoothed over the foam. Modellers then use varioustools and slicks to finalize the shape of the car, since changesare readily possible.
