A Product_feature_space is a Physical_space that consists of points, curves, surfaces, or finite volumes within a Product_specification_or_set. These points, curves, surfaces or finite volumes can can change their absolute and relative positions and their shapes as the Product_specification_or_set moves or deforms.
NOTE - The different types of Product_feature_space correspond to different modelling views of a structure, as follows:
- set of points: a volume model;
- set of curves: a shell model;
- set of surfaces: a beam model;
- set of volumes: a lumped parameter model.
