A Review on Application of Model Based Systems Engineering to Manufacturing and Production Engineering Systems

Survey on set-based design (SBD) quantitative methods

Towards an integrated design methodology for mechatronic systems

The complexity of construction processes often means interaction between various stakeholders, activities and tasks in order to deliver the expected outcomes. The intensity and dynamics of front-end design (FED) mean decision techniques and methods are important in supporting projects benefits delivery more importantly those based on utility of decision making. This paper explores a new utilitarian decision-making approach based on a systematic literature review of FED decision making. It presents the state of the art in design decision making concepts and analysis of tools over the last 10 years (2009–2019). From a total of 111 peer-reviewed journal papers, fifteen decision-making techniques are identified as dominant in design decision making, broadly grouped in four major categories as explanatory/rational, Multi Criteria Decision Making techniques (MCDM), Hybrid and Visual methods. The review finds that the most applied of the MCDM is Quality Function Deployment (QFD); while among the rational/explanatory techniques is set-based design (SBD). While there is limited application of Multi Attribute Utility Theory (MAUT) in decision making, the paper finds that the robust consistency and structured approach better captures the intricate dynamics of FED; including modelling of the subjectivity, interdependences and uncertainty in design discourse.

A Utilitarian Decision—Making Approach for Front End Design—A Systematic Literature Review

Nowadays, the global competition between companies is characterized by high innovation speed, shortened product life cycle as well as increasing customer expectations for the performance, the quality and the price of the product. Furthermore, most of the modern technical products are currently more and more complex. Then, system engineering is positioned today to be the perfect approach that allows engineers to design complex systems in an integrated way. In the system engineering process, architectural design consists in synthesizing solutions of the system that satisfies the requirements. However, system architectures need methods to generate relevant architectures and integrate discipline requirements. In this paper, we propose a new approach, that we call DMIV for Development, Mapping, Integration and Verification, by using the Set-Based Concurrent Engineering concept. After detailing the approach, we show, in an example, how we narrow the design space by integrating solutions and increasing requirement details.

Architectural design of complex systems using set-based concurrent engineering

Mechatronics expresses the close integration of mechanics, electrics/electronics, control engineering and software engineering. The design of mechatronic systems follows the traditional point-based design method, which drawback is the decrease of the potential of innovation, by limiting the design space to few solutions. The Set-Based Concurrent Engineering SBCE, however, begins by broadly considering sets of possible solutions and gradually narrowing the set of possibilities to converge on a final solution. Nevertheless, few industrials in the mechatronic field are using SBCE concept, because of the difficulty to implement it. In this paper, we show how to apply the SBCE concept for mechatronic systems, with an application to an industrial case study of an Electronic Throttle Body (ETB), used to regulate the amount of air in an internal combustion engine. The results show that with a well-structured SBCE process model, we can explore the big number of solutions that we generate when dealing with mechatronic systems, and then we progressively reduce the set of possibilities to the final system design.

Mechatronic system design with manufacturing constraints using set-based concurrent engineering

A mechatronic system consists in a close intersection between mechanics, electronics, control engineering and software engineering. Typically, the controller design and the system design are developed and optimized contemporaneously. However, a poorly designed mechanical system will not at any time be able to hand out a good performance by adding a good controller. Furthermore, to design complex systems, the designers have to follow the traditional point-based development model where one solution is iteratively modified until it fits the specifications. The main problem with the point-based development model lies in the several resets and modifications that return to the previous steps to satisfy the requirements that meet those of the current stage. Therefore, in this paper, we propose to use Set Based Concurrent Engineering to develop a complex system after that we propose to carry a preliminary optimization of the parametric model of the system in the preliminary design before adding the control system. This approach is shown with a simulation model using Modelica for a case study in the automotive field of an Electronic Throttle Body (ETB).

The Design and Modeling of an Optimized Mechatronic System Using a Set Based Concurrent Engineering

The implementation of the SBCE principles in the V-cycle steps for the development of a mechatronic product and its production system

The growing penetration of mechanical engineering through information technology has led to considerable advantages. The resulting discipline that expresses the tight integration of mechanics, electronics, control and software engineering is called mechatronics. Therefore, designing mechatronic systems is a complex as well as an interdisciplinary task. Added to that, developing a new mechatronic product takes a lot of time due to the iterative exchange loops between the designers, the manufacturing engineers and other specialists, which subsequently increase the development cost. Hence, continuous and effective communication and cooperation between developers from various fields during the entire development process is necessary. In this context, we propose an approach based on the integration of the set-based concurrent engineering principles with the system engineering methodology for the design of complex mechatronic systems, taking into consideration the production system constraints in the early design stages. The goal of this approach is to reduce the iterative exchange loops between different participants, which in turn minimize the cost and time required to develop a mechatronic product.
