This manuscript is related to computer-aided design and more particularly to the functional design of manufacturing products. Our goal is to propose a computer method that allows to build as automatically as possible the shape of a product starting from its specifications (its functions).The first chapter is interested in computer or manual tools and methods to support the functional design (SADT, FAST...). It shows that the specifications of a product are mainly expressed in the natural language, which makes difficult any automation of the design at this level. One feels the need for defining an intermediate model facilitating a less abrupt transition from functions to the shape of the product.The second chapter treats geometrical modellin...
