THIS PAPER DISCUSSES FEATURE BASED MODELING, VARIATIONAL MODELING, PARAMETRIC MODELING, OPTIMIZATION, AND FEATURE-BASED PARAMETRIC OPTIMIZATION. AFTER ADDRESSING EACH POINT, THE PAPER PROVIDES INFORMATION ON HOW TO ASSESS THE ACCURACY OF FEA RESULTS AND SOME BENCHMARK STUDIES ON DIFFERENT SOLUTION ALGORITHMS FOR LARGE, 3-D FEA MODELS PRODUCED BY CAD SYSTEMS. CASE STUDIES OF FEATURE-BASED PARAMETRIC OPTIMIZATION ARE ALSO PRESENTED.
