This tutorial covers how to convert an STL to a STEP using FreeCAD. Note: Since STLs are meshes, the resulting model won't be as precise as parts originally made as solids. FreeCAD can export: - Step - Iges - Scad - Dxf - Dwg - Obj - Pdf And many others…

Creatividad en ingeniería - Parte 1

La creatividad es un concepto complejo, actualmente investigado con diferentes enfoques que iniciaron en la psicología y se extendieron a diversos campos. Este tutorial pretende mostrar algunos de sus mecanismos, con los cuales quizás muchos se sientan identificados, para mejorar nuestras prácticas de diseño. No se trata de incrementar esta capacidad (ojalá se pudiera) sino de conocer algo de ella para, al menos, no bloquearla u obstaculizarla sin darnos cuenta.

(Gracias GREG PIOL!) Una forma interesante de estudiar la creatividad es observar procesos creativos con los que uno esté familiarizado. La introspección es lo tenemos más a la mano y la observación de otras personas que hacen tareas similares (como nuestros colegas que diseñan y publican en GC) es ideal. Pero requiere la colaboración de esos actores porque no solo queremos ver sus obras finales, sino tratar de entender desde dónde y cómo llegaron a ellas... y esto no es fácil de lograr. De allí mi agradecimiento a nuestro colega Greg Piol (https://grabcad.com/greg--32) que tuvo la enorme gentileza de proveerme algo del material de partida para sus maravillosos diseños: sus bocetos!

Otra arista compleja y polémica de la creatividad es su evaluación. Existen muchas propuestas plasmadas en test que intentan medir la creatividad, pero muchos expertos afirman que será difícil tener un acuerdo sobre la medición de un concepto que aún no está bien definido. De todas formas, y hasta que ese momento llegue, implementamos en el aula de una asignatura de ingeniería mecánica un test sencillo que trata de rescatar el espíritu del mejor método actual de evaluación creativa "la Técnica de Evaluación Consensuada (propuesta por Teresa de Amabile en 1982)" y adaptarlo para su uso regular en la enseñanza del diseño mecánico.

CPDC: Conceptual Postprocessing Divergent Convergent. This tutorial describes a relevant task within the conceptual engineering process that consists of post-processing the SSC (Spectrum of Solution Concepts) to understand and classify the solutions achieved, and deepen the learning of the problem. Its objective is to obtain new solutions, either by association of pre-existing ones, by the discovery of conceptual omissions or by a crisis of ideas and paradigms that induces the breaking of molds and the appearance of disruptive concepts. In order to properly contextualize this task, all the milestones of the conceptual stage are reviewed, highlighting the moment in which the CPDC is executed and glimpsing its relevance.
