Abstract

This paper describes a computer aided design tool for mechanical engineering applications, combining component assembly simulation, the modelling of rigid and flexible bodies and haptic interaction in a multi-user distributed virtual environment. It presents the research challenges encountered, and an architecture designed to address these.
