Welcome to my first ever web site!!
The purpose of this website is to present some of my 3d modeling skills using CATIA V5.
CATIA is a mechanical CAD system invented in the seventies by the "Avions Marcel Dassault - Bréguet Aviation"
company, a military aircraft manufacturer. Despite its venerable age, CatiaV5 is probably the most powerful 3D CAD system
available today. Once written in Fortran and running on IBM mainframes, it has become a C++ sofware that runs perfectly on
any PC having 1GB RAM and hardware-accelerated 3D graphics.

There is a lot of talk about PLM these days. In fact, the buzz surrounding PLM has created a buzzword that is often misunderstood.
To some, PLM is a thing; or more correctly THINGS; a suite of solutions. To others it is a process or methodology that begins
when a product is conceived and ends when a product reaches retirement age. The truth is, PLM is all of this &; yet much
more.
As such, PLM isnt just sparking a revolution it IS the revolution.
Which holds both good news and not-so-good news. The not-so-good news is that Product Lifecycle Management can be an intimidating
subject, leading companies to shy away from implementation because it seems too complex for their needs or too expensive for
their pocketbooks.
Even definitions can seem intimidating. Consider this from CIMdata, Inc., a leading worldwide consultant ;PLM is a strategic
business approach that applies a consistent set of business solutions in support of the collaborative creation, management,
dissemination, and use of product definition information across the extended enterprise from concept to end of life; integrating
people, process and information;
If you can get beyond this, though, there is good news. Implementing PLM is an evolutionary process and your company ;
perhaps without even realizing it ; has already begun. As a CATIA user, you are employing one of the industry;s leading PLM
components. Undoubtedly, you understand the value of the CAAV5 open development platform, which enables developers, service
providers and customers to design leading-edge applications that seamlessly integrate with CATIA architecture. This in itself
puts you on a PLM path.
Yet, did you know that with the CATIA tools you now use to define and shape your company;s innovation, you have at your
fingertips cutting-edge technologies that offer an unparalleled level of knowledge capture and reuse? Native access to virtual
product information -- pre-customized for managing customer assets. Collaborative design interaction.
