topology

Most often used as a term describing the relations, that means, dependencies, between hull panels. As an example, the boundary of a panel may be related to another panel to which it connects. Instead of explicitly defining the geometry of the panel boundary it is possible to associate to the other panel. Thus modifying one panel may cause the modification also of several other panels.
