HD88552: DMUNAV: THE "MEASURE" RESULT OF AREA IS DIFFERENT ON CATIA LEVE LS R19SP3 & R19SP5

APAR status

• Closed as Permanent restriction.

Error description

• ABSTRACT:
  DMUNAV: The "measure" result of area is different
  on CATIA levels R19SP3 & R19SP5
  PREREQUISITE:
  Apply the
  following setup before reproducing this scenario. Tool /
  Option / General / Parameters and Measure / Units / Area =
  Squaremillimeter(mm2)
  SCENARIO:
  1) Start "CATIA V5R19SP3".
  2) Open the CATPart. Workbench: Generative Shape Design.
  3)
  Click "Measure Item" command. "Measure Item" window is
  displayed.
  4) Select "Exact" as Calculation mode.
  5) Select
  "surface.1" on the tree. "Measure Item" result is displayed.
  The area is 559028.615mm2. This is the right behavior.
  6)
  Start "CATIA V5R19SP5".
  7) Open the CATPart. Workbench:
  Generative Shape Design.
  8) Click "Measure Item" command.
  "Measure Item" window is displayed.
  9) Select "Exact" as
  Calculation mode.
  10) Select "surface.1" on the tree.
  "Measure Item" result is displayed.
  RESULT:
  In R19SP5 the
  result is The area is 559028.623mm2. The "measure" result of
  area is different on V5R19SP3 and V5R19SP5 levels.
  EXPECTED
  RESULT:
  The "measure" result of area on V5R19SP3 and V5R19SP5
  levels should be same.

Problem conclusion

• THIS PROBLEM IS PERMANENT RESTRICTION IN CATIA
  Additional
  Closure Information:
  Incident Diagnosis:
  The "measure" result
  of area is different on CATIA levels R19SP3 &
  R19SP5
  Restriction Explanation:
  The mass properties algorithm
  was changed in R19SP4 to fix a few errors. Small changes in
  results are thus expected even if the result was correct in
  previous versions. You might also want to note that the
  default tolerance for this algorithm is of 0.1% (relative) and
  the change you re seeing is of 0.0000015%. (By the way,
  CATDynMassProperties2D uses the CATDynMassProperties3D code so
  results given by those two classes for the area should be the
  same at a given CGM version)
  By-Pass:
  Not applicable
