    6. Conclusion and outlook

    The properties of the models (or more simply, the files) influence the operator's work. We have seen that current CAD models impose a design mode, which is likely to be challenged in the near future. Operators therefore need to understand the fundamental properties of models, in order to make the most of them. This is the subject of this article and of [H 3 750] , as it can have a major influence on their own design methods: pre-cutting, sub-assembly definitions, order of operations for parameterization, etc. However, the geometric model is not sufficient to take into account functional aspects, i.e. the...
