7. A parametric, feature-based solid modeling system Parametric : You can define or modify a feature’s dimension or other attribute at any time. Any changes will automatically propagate through the model. You can relate dimensions in numeric formula. Feature-based : Create parts and assemblies by defining features like extrusions, sweeps, cuts, holes, slots, etc. Solid Modeling : Computer model is able to contain all the “information” that a real solid object would have.
