Model-Based Systems Engineering for Space System Composer
Reference persons SABRINA CORPINO
Description Model-based systems engineering (MBSE) is a model-centric system engineering approach for representing complex systems, improving development time and cost efficiency in space systems design. It relies on computer-based tools and procedures to enhance the space systems design, development, and verification process by enabling a structured and digitally processable expression of information.
To effectively apply the combined methodology, it is necessary to define a proper tool to integrate and visualize the elements of a space mission and the relationships between them, together with the need to standardize the architecture used during concurrent design at both mission and system levels.
This thesis aims at exploring the application of System Composer in enabling MBSE for the conceptual design of a CubeSat mission. By developing a conceptual design for a CubeSat mission applying MBSE principles, the thesis aims at demonstrating how System Composer can be used to standardize the architecture and visualize the complex relationships between mission elements, facilitating more effective communication and decision-making within the design team. Finally, it aims at critically evaluating the effectiveness of System Composer as a tool for MBSE in space mission design, identifying its strengths, limitations, and potential areas for improvement.
In collaboration with the Systems and Technologies for Aerospace Research Lab (STARlab team @ DIMEAS), this thesis has an approximate duration of 6 months.
