Abstract
The following paper aims at presenting the results of an original cooperation between a Canadian and a French team, both of them working on the computer implementation of the concurrent engineering concept and on related integration problems. The two fields addressed here are manufacturing preparation and analysis preparation (automatic mesh generation of geometric models for finite element methods) for mechanical parts. The article focuses on the way how a common product model and feature recognition techniques have been successfully used for both mesh generation (Finite Element Methods) and CAPP automation.
