8. Conclusion

This presentation [AF 5 060] and [AF 5 061] has been deliberately kept to a minimum. The field of application of the software is much wider than what has been developed. All areas of mechanics can benefit from these new calculation tools, whether in the field of design, continuum mechanics, robotics...

The main difficulties for the mechanical engineer will very soon be those of his mathematical skills. Over the years, we've become accustomed to assuming a whole set of implicit assumptions about the space in which the various parameters and solutions are defined.

We've also picked up habits associated with handwritten expressions. If we want to take full advantage of this tool, we'll have to rethink the way we pose, write and solve problems. In a second phase,...
