This paper presents a model-based systems engineering methodology that can be applied to perform a root cause analysis on transient systems. The methodology extends existing root cause analysis best practice by incorporating system modeling and analysis techniques. The methodology is deployed through a detailed 5-step process to understand, identify, assess, FMEA, and validate potential transient system-level root causes. A transient performance reliability analysis for a dual mode refrigeration system is used to demonstrate how the methodology can be applied. The paper also describes a set of success factors for applying the methodology using a phased approach with a large cross-functional team.

Model Based Systems Engineering

Abstract Due to the increasing integration of different disciplines, the complexity in the development of mechatronic production systems is growing. To address this issue, a multi-disciplinary design approach has been proposed, which follows the model-based systems engineering (MBSE) architecture and integrates the interdisciplinary modeling approach SysML4Mechatronics. In this article, the applicability of this approach in the machine and plant manufacturing domain is demonstrated using five use cases. These use cases are derived from industry and are demonstrated in a lab-sized production plant. The results of the application show that the approach can completely fulfil the proposed industrial requirements, namely interdisciplinary modeling, comprehensibility of system modeling, reusability of the modeling components, coupling different engineering models and checking data consistency.

Inhalt Unscharfe Anforderungen, verschiedene Lösungs-alternativen oder eingeschränkt gültige Simulationsmodelle sind Beispiele für inhärente Unsicherheit in der Produktentwicklung. Im vorliegenden Beitrag wird ein modellbasierter Ansatz vorgestellt, der das industriell etablierte Denken in Sicherheitsfaktoren um qualitative Aspekte ergänzt. Modelle der Informationsqualität helfen, die Unsicherheit von Ent- wicklungsartefakten beschreibend zu charakterisieren. Mittels semantischer Technologien wird Unsicherheit so wirklich handhabbar – nicht im Sinne einer Berechnung, sondern im Sinne einer qualitativen Interpretation. Dadurch entsteht wertvolles Wissen für die iterative Anforderungsanalyse, die Bewertung alternativer System-Architekturen oder für die Rekonfiguration von Simulationen.

Model Based Systems Engineering

Today, vehicle development is already in a process of substantial transformation. Mobility trends can be derived from global megatrends and have a significant influence on the requirements of the developed vehicles. The sociological, technological, economic, ecological, and political developments can be determined by using the scenario technique. The results are recorded in the form of differently shaped scenarios; however, they are mainly document-based. In order to ensure a holistic approach in the sense of model-based systems engineering and to be able to trace the interrelationships of the fast-changing trends and requirements, it is necessary to implement future scenarios in the system model. For this purpose, a method is proposed that enables the consideration of future scenarios in model-based vehicle development. The procedure of the method is presented, and the location of the future scenarios within the system architectures is named. The method is applied and the resulting system views are derived based on the application example of an autonomous people mover. With the help of the described method, it is possible to show the effects of a change of scenario (e.g., best-case and worst-case) and the connections with the highest level of requirements: stakeholder needs.

Modelling Approaches

AbstractModel-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) is an efficient approach to support product development in order to meet today's challenges. The MBSE approach includes methods and, above all, modelling approaches of the technical system with the aim of continuous use in development. The objective of this paper is to use the potential of the MBSE models and to show the added value of such models on the system level when used as a single source. With this objective, this paper presents a three-step approach to systematically identify and apply meaningful modelling approaches within MBSE, based on the needs during the development process. Furthermore, an FMEA example is included in this paper to elaborate the use of MBSE in the system failure analysis.
