Keywords: aircraft fuel-system, probabilistic design, optimization

This paper describes a framework where the house of quality and the design structure matrix are used to visualize dependencies between requirements and design parameters. The elements have been quantified and a framework has been developed where optimization and probabilistic design is used to support design of aircraft fuel systems.
