summary

This study introduces the Meta-Modeling process adopted from the Model Based System Engineering field (MBSE) to explore an approach for the generation of design alternatives beyond the restrictions of the Parametric Models that mainly produce geometric variations and have limitations in terms of topological transformations during the exploratory design tasks. The Meta-Model is the model of attributes and relationships among objects of a particular domain. It describes objects and concepts in abstract terms independent from the complexity of the geometric models and provides mapping mechanisms that facilitate the interfacing with parametric parts. The flexibility of these computer-interpretable and human-readable models can contribute to creatively manipulate the design knowledge embedded in parametric models.
