1. A computer-aided method of dimension analysis of a geometric figure comprising the following steps:

  • specifying to a computer a topologic definition of said geometric figure to establish a set of geometric entities interrelated by structure constraints, said structure constraints associating pairs of said geometric entities;

    specifying to the computer a dimension definition of said geometric figure to establish stated dimension constraints interrelating selected ones of said geometric entities, said dimension constraints associating pairs of said geometric entities;

    determining whether said topologic definition includes a geometric entity constrained by a predetermined number of associated constraints, and, if so,removing such geometric entity and said predetermined number of associated constraints from said topologic definition and said dimension definition.
