Data modelling for electromagnetic and stress analysis integration

This report describes the data modelling performed within the EC ESPRIT Project MIDAS (Project 7294). MIDAS was a three year project which brought together software from different vendors in the areas of solid modelling, advanced mesh generation, stress analysis and electromagnetic analysis into a totally integrated Suite of software with a common user interface and a common database. Data modelling and the use of a data base were a very important component of the integration process. As a result the IS0 STEP standard (IS
