SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONCURRENT MULTI-USER CAX WORKFLOW

摘要

A system (100) for concurrent CAx workflow includes a collaborative server (110) that manages a model (310) of an engineering object, the model comprising at least design data and analysis data corresponding to the design data, a design client (210) for editing of the design data by a design user, an analysis client (220) for editing of the analysis data by an analysis user concurrent with editing of the design data by the design user; and wherein the collaborative server and the analysis client are collectively configured (i.e., one or both are configured) to enable the analysis user to edit the analysis data, view a plurality of geometric elements within the design data, and create a reference within the analysis data to a selected geometric element of the plurality of geometric elements within the design data. A corresponding apparatus, method, and computer-readable medium are also disclosed herein.
