Realizing Interoperability between MBSE Domains in Aircraft System Development

Establishing interoperability is an essential aspect of the often-pursued shift towards Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) in, for example, aircraft development. If models are to be primary information carriers during development, applied methods enable interaction between engineering domains need modular, reusable, and scalable. Given long life cycles often large heterogeneous development organizations in industry, a piece overall solution could rely on open standards tools. In this paper, Functional Mock-up Interface (FMI) System Structure Parameterization (SSP) exploited exchange data disciplines systems simulation geometry modeling. A method export from 3D Computer Aided Design (CAD) Software (SW) CATIA SSP format developed presented. Analogously, FMI support Modeling & Simulation (M&S) tools OMSimulator, OpenModelica, Dymola utilized along with OMSimulator. The technology put into context by means integration M&S methodology vehicle system deployed at Saab Aeronautics. Finally, established demonstrated two different industrially relevant application examples addressing varying aspects complexity. goal research prototype demonstrate functionality, enabled standards, that improve MBSE implemented industry academia.
