Pointwise Analysis Interface Module (AIM)
Introduction

Pointwise AIM Overview

A module in the Computational Aircraft Prototype Syntheses (CAPS) has been developed to interact with the ......

The Pointwise AIM provides the CAPS users with the ability to generate .......

An outline of the AIM's inputs and outputs are provided in AIM Inputs and AIM Outputs, respectively.

The accepted and expected geometric representation and analysis intentions are detailed in Geometry Representation and Analysis Intent.

Details of the AIM's shareable data structures are outlined in AIM Shareable Data if connecting this AIM to other AIMs in a parent-child like manner.
