1. Define the differences between a static assembly and a dynamic assembly. Which method would offer advantages to design teams who access a common database of files through a network?
2. Many of the recent generation of computer modeling programs have capabilities for solid modeling and constraint-based modeling. Research the capabilities of the CAD program, solid modeler, or constraint-based modeler at your school or workplace. What nomenclature, commands, and procedures are used by the program to define capabilities in the following:
a. External references
b. Global parameters
c. Interference checking
d. Dynamic assemblies
