The PBAM Representation

• PBAM representation - special version of ABB representation (based on constrained objects (COBs)).
• Uses same ABB/COB information modeling views.

Example: Solder Joint Deformation Model

Constraint Schematic: Component Occurrence Plane Strain PBAM (notation)

Example Associativity Linkages:

Advantages

• Explicit representation (and documentation) of design-analysis associativity.
• Aides development, implementation, and usage (as with ABBs).

Example PBAM usage and FEA results
