SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MULTI-USER SPATIAL IMPACT ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

摘要

Methods for CAD operations and corresponding systems and computer-readable mediums are disclosed herein. A method includes accessing (302), by a data processing system (202, 500), a computer-aided design, engineering, visualization, or manufacturing (CAx) model (208) of a part or assembly to be manufactured. The method includes storing (304) a plurality of impact definitions (204) corresponding to the CAx model (208). The method includes receiving (306), from a first client system (220A), an indication of a first spatial area of the CAx model (208) and, from a second client system (220B), an indication of a second spatial area of the CAx model (208). The method includes receiving (308) a notification of a save event created by the first client system (220A) for the first spatial area. The method includes performing impact detection (310) according to the save event, the first spatial area, and the impact definitions (204) to detect a potential impact. The method includes sending (312) an impact notification to the first client system (220A) and the second client system (220B).
