Abstract
The changed state of a shape of a transformable element of each part is preregistered to a library in an assembly simulation. When two parts collide with each other, the changed state of the element is selected according to an interference condition such as a material, a direction in which force is applied, etc., and the interference between parts is verified based on the selected shape after being changed.
