Evaluation of 3D Modeling Programs For Industrial Design Use

In this article, Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) which had been used for evaluation purposes in numerous theoretic and practical fields in academic to industrial circles is investigated and the use of the method is explained in detail. The method is then demonstrated on a field study in which 3D modeling programs are evaluated fur suitability to the industrial design field. At the results section, the obtained findings are explained, interpreted and methods possible benefits to the industrial design field is argued.
