6 Concurrent Engineering Introduction (1/2) Conventional Design / Engineering Processes Sequential Engineering (with iterations): Configuration Power Thermal Source: ESA iteration Centralized Engineering: Configuration Power Project Manager/ Systems Engineer Thermal AOCS Source: ESA Slide 6

7 Concurrent Engineering Introduction (2/2) Concurrent Design / Engineering Process Configuration Project Manager/ Systems Engineer Power Thermal AOCS Source: ESA The five key elements: - Interdisciplinary expert team - CE - process - Integrated Design Model - Facility / Infrastructure - Tools (e.g. S/W; Multi-Media) Slide 7

8 Concurrent Engineering What is that? (1/2) Systems Engineering technique for design, development and technical management Systematic approach for integrated product development Formalization of the iterative development process Concurrent (simultaneous) work on a common problem Active involvement of all disciplines and the customer Focusses primarily on the early phases of a space project Who does that? Agencies and research institutes e.g.: NASA (JPL & GSFC), ESA, DLR, ASI, CNES, JAXA Industry e.g.: EADS Astrium, Thales Alenia Space (TAS), J-CDS Universities e.g.: TU Munich, MIT, Stanford; Cranfield; La Sapienza Slide 8

9 Concurrent Engineering What is that? (2/2) Benefits at a glance Involvement of all disciplines Customer participation Highly iterative Common understanding of the problem Immediate design change implementation Quick data exchange Unambiguous parameters with pre-defined units reduces cost reduces time reduces failures increases consistency increases quality Source: JAQAR Concurrent Design Services (J-CDS) Source: vocabase.com Slide 9

10 The Facility Introduction The Concurrent Engineering Facility is a System Analysis Laboratory a DLR major research institution dedicated for DLR internal as well as external studies / activities The Concurrent Engineering Facility has 3 design rooms with 21 work stations in total a secure network 2 common servers (Windows; Linux) a Tandberg videoconference system a media management system a knowledge management system public LAN/WLAN access access to an internal component data base Slide 10

11 The Facility Overview Slide 11

12 The Facility Main Design Room (1/2) Set-up example Slide 12

13 The Facility Main Design Room (2/2) 3 Screens (2x Plasma, 1x Smartboard) 12 flexible Work Stations Slide 13

14 The Team The CEF Core Team (i.e. members of SARA dept.) include e.g.: Team Leader / Moderator Systems Engineer; Systems Assistant Optional: Mission, Cost, Risk, (could also be a domain experts) CEF IT-Manager Domain experts can be from DLR Bremen, other DLR Institutes, or external institutions Customers (e.g. PI) can be Internal departments Agencies (DLR; ESA) Industry / Universities PI = Principal Investigator Slide 14

15 Phases Overview Slide 15

16 Phases Description (1/2) #1 - Initiation Phase (starts months before using the CEF) Customer (internal group, scientists, industry) contacts CE-team CE-team customer negotiations Expected results definition (study objectives) Identification of required disciplines #2 - Preparation Phase (starts weeks before using the CEF) Definition of mission objectives (with customer) Definition of mission and system requirements (with customer) Identification and selection of system concept(s) Initial mission analysis (if applicable, e. g. based on STK) Final definition and invitation of expert ensemble, agenda definition Slide 16

17 Phases Description (2/2) #3 - Study Phase (1-3 weeks in the facility) K/O with presentations of study key elements (goals, requirements) Starting with first configuration approach and estimation of budgets (mass, power, volume, modes, ) on subsystem level Iterations on subsystem and equipment level in several sessions (2-4 hours each); e.g. trading of several options In between offline work: subsystem design in splinter groups Final Presentation of all disciplines / subsystems #4 Post-processing Phase Collecting of Results (each S/S provides input to book captain) Evaluation and documentation of results Transfer open issues to further project work Implementation of lessons learnt into the CE-process Slide 17

18 DLR Approach 2 week study example Session: Post-processing: Final Presentation: Moderated (in Main Design Room); data exchange Free discussions & analyses; working groups Presentation, evaluation and comparison of results Slide 18

19 DLR Approach 1 week study example 1 week has advantages and disadvantages: more condensed and focussed; less disturbances (e.g. other projects) less analyses time requires more effort before and after study Approach will be adapted according to personnel and time availability Slide 19

30 Conclusions Concurrent Engineering - Reduces development cost (by factor 2) and time (by factor 4) - Minimizes failures increases consistency - Mutual education ( system view ) - Very helpful in the early design phases (i.e. Phase 0 / A) Its all about the Team - Data models, tools and infrastructure support the process - Various models possible / available / under development - Increased engineers and scientists communication Other (actual & potential) sectors and applications - Aeronautics, car industry - Oil- and gas; offshore plants - Civil engineering; architecture - Software engineering Slide 30

31 Outlook Process application to higher project phases (Phase B and beyond) - Integration of the team, models and infrastructure across the entire project life-cycle including disposal Increased cross-linking of S/W and design model - Connection of domain specifc tools (DST) - Advanced Model-based System Engineering (MBSE) - Virtual pre-views; automatic 3D-models based on parameters Implementation of internal data bases into the design models - DLR Space Suppliers and Manufacturers Database (SSAM) - DLR Concurrent Engineering Reference Database (CERD) Closer co-operation on national & international level - Linking of CE-facilities for joint studies - Standardization of models, parameters and procedures Slide 31
