Maplesoft Solutions for Model-Based Systems Engineering Projects

Creation, maintenance, and validation of requirements and systems models

In the world of Model Based Systems Engineering, specialized tools help define high-level system requirements that are used throughout the design chain. Most engineers don't have the training needed to use these complex tools, but their input into system requirements remains vital. With customization by the Maplesoft Engineering Solutions team to meet your specific needs, MapleMBSE makes collaboration on requirements accessible to all stakeholders, providing streamlined interfaces for each task in your MBSE project. By giving more engineers an easy connection to MBSE tools, you can work faster, reduce errors, and ensure a system-wide collaboration on your next project.

Computation and Management of Executable Requirements

Very often, the MBSE model will include many quantitative requirements that are defined as mathematical expressions. However, it won't be until these expressions have been combined and executed that a likely conflict will arise.

Maple provides a powerful, rigorous environment for importing these requirements from the architectural model, combining the related expressions together and computing the results. Not only that, since all the expressions are handled as equations, analysts are freed from the constraint of deciding which variables are dependent and independent so early in the process. This allows them to perform trade-off studies on any of the parameters and relationships to resolve design conflicts. Moreover, it is done in a live technical document environment that allows analysts to document their work with the mathematical expressions at a level of quality that would be expected in a technical publication or design manual.
