Why someone is calling a chart/diagram a logo is the bigger mystery here.
Mockups of things exist.
- ibeff 2y agoIt's not a diagram or mock-up, it's a direct representation of the real thing for computer simulations, similar to CAD. The dimensions and shape of the components are accurate. And the author is calling it a logo because the picture is used to represent and advertise the software.
- mxfh 2y agoIt's a product diagram on a presentation slide. Hopefully meant to be read on handouts or proceedings. A logo is the Sierra stylized text in the lower center. And the two others in the slide's footer. That Sandia might use, what was obviously intended as a diagram as a logo is a whole other thing but doesn't make it one. As long as all representation of that thing are that big and readable one can assume they were not used as logos.
- InsideOutSanta 2y agoThe author of the post claims that the warhead-like design "is literally the logo for this particular software framework." I can't verify this claim, but other Sandia frameworks (e.g. Sierra) use similar, equally overdesigned logos, so it's plausible.
