French term or phrase: maillage mort
See the context below:

Le cas particulier d’un modèle hybride comportant CAO et maillage mort n’est pas abordé ici, et fera l’objet d’une méthodologie future.

Th especial case of a hybrid model including CAD and dead net structure is not approached here, and this will be the target of a future methodology.


Ce document part donc du postulat que l’utilisateur dispose d’un modèle CATIA V5 complet (maillage, propriétés, liaisons (hors MPC))

TiA!

Explanation:
Looks like parts of the model are on an active drawing grid (ie. the grid can be modified during the CAD process) but others are 'inactive' in the sense that the CATIA system can't influence them. Maybe they're imported from another CAD system, or even some sort of plain drawing.
