Claim One:
1. A method for modeling a mechanical device or a turbomachine, the device or turbomachine presenting parts list including at least one set including at least one element selected from a component or a set of components, the method comprising: generating: a CAD file containing a geometrical representation of the element; and a data file containing a three-dimensional positioning matrix for the at least one element of the set together with at least one pointer to the CAD file containing the geometrical representation of the element of the set; and calculating a three-dimensional positioning vector for the element, and creating a data structure of the parts list, the data structure comprising: an identifier of the set; an identifier of the element; at least one link between the identifier of the element and the CAD file containing the geometrical representation of the element; at least one link between the identifier of the set and the data file containing a three-dimensional positioning matrix for the at least one element of the set; and the positioning vector.
