Demonstration and Testing
What is Demonstration and Testing?
Testing is conducted throughout the
entire design process to validate and understand the design system.
Demonstration is utilized for the
final project presentations in ENGR111 and ENGR112 when the design
projects are required to perform. Part of the students grade is
determined by how well the design is demonstrated to meet the design
contraints and required performance level.
Some examples of previous design demonstrations
include:
- Measuring endurance and speed of an air-powered
car
- Measuring distance and accuracy of a ping-pong
ball launcher
- Measuring distance and accuracy of a rubber-band
powered car
Why are Demonstration and Testing Important?
Demonstration and testing are important because
they establish criteria for understanding and validating the design
system. Demonstration is important for all engineering designs because
it proves that the design is functional and meets the design contraints.
