If code is design, then the computer languages and frameworks we use define the raw material for what we can design.

如果对代码进行设计，那么我们所用的计算机语言和架构就定义了我们可以设计的原始资料。

Open source hardware similarly promises that when you buy a device [the "executed" version of the design], you also receive all the source material for that device so you can modify it.

开源硬件相似地承若当你购买了一个设备(能够“执行”的设计版本)，你也得到可以用来修改它的原材料。

Successful design of tools for the material removal processes requires, above all, a complete understanding of cutting tool function and geometry.

为材料的去除工艺而成功设计的刀具，首先需求的是对工具功能和形状的彻底了解。

With tools like these, we have the opportunity to really understand at the front end of the design process what the potential for the material is, not just for sustainability but also for versatility.

Next is the publication of a "look book" for the final design and models built from foamcore, a strong, lightweight material.

Lower turbines should, together with clever design and material selection, help reduce the turbines' weight, and thus their need for ballast, which in turn should reduce sub-sea costs.
