  1. A Diet of Kool-Aid

    I’ll get straight to the point. I don’t think there’s ever been a wider gulf between where real simulation engineers are in terms of what they do day to day and how they do it, and the messaging from at least some of the simulation software OEMs. It’s a fight we’ve all got a dog at least snarling from the sidelines in… Just possibly, there are good people on all sides. But one aspect that does nobody any good is the perception of what you could call “simulation TRLs” (Technology Readiness Levels) on non-simulation engineers and beyond. Pretty early on in the story that was SSA, a company I co-founded, Richard, my erstwhile business partner, and I realised that what we were selling were arguably...more

  4. From SysML to Mars: Mars2020's MBSE Infusion

    This presentation was made at the NAFEMS Americas CAASE19 Virtual Conference. Abstract Mars2020, NASA’s next Mars Rover inherited a majority of Mars Science Laboratory (MSL)’s Flight hardware and software. It also inherited the technical baseline described in disparate presentations, spreadsheets, document repositories, emails, and intelligent minds that have long left the project. The Mars2020 Systems Engineering leadership wanted to define their technical baseline in an integrative, data driven manner, that would incorporate the inherited design with the new science instruments and Martian sample caching system. The team chose to leverage advancements in MBSE to garner a better understanding...more

  5. AI (ML) in Engineering Design: Its Status and Readiness for it

  9. The Impact of MBE on Simulation: From Embedded Software to Digital Twins – Leveraging System Simulation Models across the Product Lifecycle

    This presentation was made at the NAFEMS Americas Seminar "Model-Based Engineering: What is it & How Will It Impact Engineering Simulation" held on the 1st of October 2019 in Columbus Ohio Resource Abstract Simulation is key in driving data-driven decision-making throughout the product design and development process, creating a virtual environment where engineers can optimize and make design trade-offs for cost and function. While simulation practices are well established in the design and development phase, physics-based models are rarely leveraged after a product is released. These physics-based simulation models provide insights into the operational conditions of the product, which cannot...more
