Some CAD applications used in the industry are (see Car Body Design, 2015)1.Alias Automotive (Industrial design tools for conceptual design and surface modeling) (Autodesk, 2015a).2.AutoCAD (Autodesk, 2015b).3.CATIA (computer-aided three-dimensional interactive application) is a multi-platform CAD/CAM/CAE commercial software suite developed by Dassault Systemes. The latest releases are CATIA V5 and CATIA V6 (Dassault Systemes, 2015).4.NX is a CAD/CAM/CAE PLM software suite developed by Siemens PLM Software. NX is a parametric solid/surface feature-based modeler and is based on Parasolid geometric modeling kernel (Siemens, 2015).5.Pro/ENGINEER is software targeted to 3-D product design that offers an integrated, parametric, 3-D CAD/CAM/CAE solution (PTC creo, 2015).6.IronCAD (IronCAD, 2015).

In the second step, GB short-axis cross sections and guideline profiles are established in SolidWorks, and a surfacical is lofted with these profiles, the surface is enclosed with a small spherical cap on the bottom of GB fundus. Geometrical model information exchange files in IGES and Parasolid formats are prepared for Abaqus to perform FEA under a specific bile pressure and boundary condition.

From an output result point of view, using Parasolid for exporting the 3D CAD models provided a reduced file size compared to that of other file formats. This is because the Parasolid software is supported by the hybrid models, containing both B-Rep and mesh geometry. Correspondingly Parasolid can store complex B-Rep models with a solid, sheet, wireframe, mixed, and even non-manifold topology. With this file, a full range of CAD operations with any type of model is provided for the designer. Accordingly, the Parasolid file can capture high-detailed information for 3D CAD models with both precise and meshed surfaces.
