According to the Model-Based Engineering Subcommittee, Model-Based Engineering (MBSE) is an approach to engineering that uses models as an integral part of the technical baseline that includes the requirements, analysis, design, implementation, and verification of a capability, system, and/or product throughout the acquisition life cycle.
Digital models have been common in engineering since the late 1960s but today’s focus on Model-based Engineering goes beyond the use of disparate models.
MBSE formalizes the practice of systems development through the use of models broad in scope – includes multiple modeling domains across life cycle from SOS to component.
MBSE is useful for many reasons including:
- Moving the record of authority from documents to digital models including M-CAD, ECAD, SysML and UML managed in a data rich environment.
- Shifting to model-based enables engineering teams to more readily understand design change impacts, communicate design intent and analyze a system design before it is built Model-Based.
- Results in quality/productivity improvements & lower risk give boosts to rigor and precision, communications among development team and customer. This also helps management of complexities.
Cost Savings
One major reason for the surging popularity of MBSE is it saves money for organizations. According to technology advisory firm EMF, when compared to typical systems engineering endeavors, the addition of model-based systems engineering delivers a 55 percent reduction in total development cost.
MBSE approaches also streamline and enable product-line engineering. When compared to typical systems engineering endeavors, the addition of product-line engineering delivers a 41.6 percent reduction in total development cost.
