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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Automation aims to standardize industrial operations and bring overall efficiency to today’s production lines. Such gains, however, may come with considerable effort, as engineering teams must ...

The so-called V-model provides many benefits for organizing the system engineering perspective by depicting the orderly progression, from requirements definition to system-level specification, ...

Why does anything have to change? A manufacturing company’s most critical product decisions are made every day in design reviews. And if you assess the state of what a design review looks like today, ...

It’s no secret to anyone that chip design gets harder every year. There are two major trends driving these ever-increasing challenges. The first is the continual scaling down to smaller design nodes.

Putting their autonomous vehicle prototype through its paces on the engineering quad, student team members monitor sensor responses as the full-sized golf cart skims quietly across the walkway. Under ...

Undertake a design project to construct, test, and modify a device that either releases or absorbs thermal energy by chemical processes. In Chapter 5, students learned how the process of dissolving ...
