Today’s electronic systems are an increasingly complex combination of hardware and software components. They contain an ever-expanding range of functions, require more computing power, have to operate ...

How model-based systems engineering (MBSE) has improved system design. Thermal design and MBE come together. When considering systems-level design, it’s important to understand the criticality of the ...

As heterogenous integration increases design complexity and forces engineers out of long-standing silos, model-based systems engineering (MBSE) is becoming essential for improving quality and reducing ...

Heavy machinery is entering a new phase where hydraulics, electronics and embedded software are engineered as one integrated system. Using model-based systems engineering (MBSE) as a framework to ...

A hackathon challenged aerospace students to develop a detailed digital system model for a robotic assistant for astronauts on the Moon A hackathon challenged aerospace students to develop a detailed ...

Automation aims to standardize industrial operations and bring overall efficiency to today’s production lines. Such gains, however, may come with considerable effort, as engineering teams must ...

Set-based design (SBD) is a methodology that systematically explores a broad design space by concurrently considering multiple design alternatives before progressively narrowing the choices. This ...
