Abstract: A method and system for providing the ability to deform and adapt a 3D model and associated 3D object to comply with a set of extrinsic and intrinsic constraints to guarantee function and fit with respect to a 3D target object. The method includes simplifying the 3D object with a topological simplification, identifying a number of constraint zones according to defined characteristics such as external rigid and non-rigid zones and internal rigid and non-rigid zones, and modifying the 3D model with respect to the constraint zones.
