The benefits of using simulation early and often in the product development process are clear. You can verify requirements and begin studying and exploring design alternatives before prototyping and ...

Model-based systems engineering is quietly, but consistently, becoming an important part of the design, maintenance, and cybersecurity of the federal government’s most complex IT platforms. MBSE ...

Model-based systems engineering is widely used when designing complex systems, but the question remains of when is it right for your project or system. Model-based system engineering is widely used by ...

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 ...

Although digital engineering has been around for years, its use within the Pentagon has been limited. The T-7A Red Hawk is one of only a handful of programs described as “radically digital." (Boeing) ...

Engineers working in the emerging areas of advanced air mobility (AAM) and electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) may be in uncharted skies, literally and figuratively. While transforming ...

Calvin Hennick is a freelance journalist who specializes in business and technology writing. He is a contributor to the CDW family of technology magazines. NASA has more programs today than at any ...

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 ...
