  • Patent number: 8117015
    Abstract: An analytical model creation system can create a desired analytical model by adding a given shape change to an existing analytical model. The system includes an adjacent partial analytical model interlocking section for performing an interlocking change process. The interlocking change process is performed on the existing analytical model as a combined analytical model comprising a plurality of partial analytical models. The process assumes any one of the partial analytical models in the combined analytical model to be a change-targeted partial analytical model. The process allows a partial analytical model adjacent to the change-targeted partial analytical model to reflect a shape change given to the change-targeted partial analytical model. The process thereby makes a shape change to the adjacent partial analytical model in interlock with the shape change.
