01.1 - Aircraft Design and Integrated Systems (Theory, Methods and Tools)

INTEGRATING SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE OPTIMIZATION INTO MODEL-BASED SYSTEMS ENGINEERING METHODS

S. Valencia-Ibáñez¹, S. Liscouët-Hanke¹; ¹Concordia University, Canada

This work integrates MBSE and System Architecture Optimization to systematically explore large design spaces. An Architecture Design Space definition step is introduced into the Arcadia method to achieve this integration. This way, design decisions are kept within the systems engineering process. An illustrative case study of a fly-by-wire flight control system is presented.
