How CAD is used in real life?

Through immersive simulation, VR, AR, and MR provide detailed conceptualization of various complicated pro-cuts that exist in the real world. Computer-aided design (CAD) is the use of computer-based software to aid in design modeling, design analysis, design review, and design documentation.

What are the different approaches to user interaction with a CAD model?

Generally, multiple approaches exist for the user interaction with a CAD model, which are also dependent upon when the interaction with the models happen, as e.g. design and simulation related user interaction at the same time or first design second user interaction by physical data enhancement.

Why do CAD models need a command based approach?

The command and GUI-based approaches are typically essential once the design of the CAD model has been completed and is only imported and processed for the analysis model. In that scenario, selecting the according geometries is pretty simplified and fast, even for untrained users.

Can parametric design and analysis modeling integrate CAD-integrated design environments?

This example has been selected to present the embedding of certain analysis procedures in the CAD-integrated design environment. It shows that by parametric design and analysis modeling it is possible to combine various simulations within a single workflow.
