The more complex the project, the greater benefit of Systems Engineering
Systems engineering is a comprehensive and interdisciplinary approach that facilitates the systematic development of complex systems. By considering the entire life-cycle of a system, from conception to disposal, systems engineering ensures a holistic perspective that addresses customer needs, requirements, design, and manufacturing, validation, and risk management. The overarching objective is to optimize the performance of the system while adhering to constraints such as cost, schedule, and risk, in order to deliver the best possible product to end-customers and stakeholders within a given timeframe and resource allocation.

Feature-Oriented Mindset
The function-driven approach in vehicle development addresses the inherent complexity by breaking down the vehicle into smaller, manageable, and reusable components and modules. It entails the seamless coordination of diverse subsystems and components, including the powertrain, suspension, electronics, and safety systems. Leveraging the systematic principles of systems engineering, this approach offers numerous benefits.
One of the key advantages is the ability to identify and articulate inter dependencies among individual artifacts. By doing so, project teams can effectively coordinate their efforts, responsibilities, and interfaces, resulting in improved collaboration and streamlined workflows. This ensures that all system components harmoniously integrate and operate as intended, while also enabling early detection and resolution of any potential issues. Additionally, the function-driven approach allows for efficient reuse of established components and modules, minimizing redundancies and enhancing overall development efficiency. Through the systematic application of systems engineering, the function-driven approach optimizes the vehicle development process, leading to robust and cohesive systems that meet performance, reliability, and safety requirements.
Model-Based System Engineering
Model-based systems engineering (MBSE) is a method of systems engineering that uses models to represent the various aspects of a system, including the components, their interactions, and the system's behavior. It allows for a more holistic and integrated approach to system engineering, and can help to improve coordination and collaboration across different disciplines and organizations. MBSE enables a powerful tool for managing and understanding the complexity of systems, especially when dealing with systems that have many sensors, actuators, and computing electronics.
In the context of powertrain, E/E architecture, EMC, functional safety, and cybersecurity in vehicles, MBSE can be used to create a digital twin of the system, which can be used for simulation and analysis to ensure that the system meets all requirements and is functioning as intended. Modal-Based System Engineering can also be used for creating an unambiguous description of the system, which can be shared among stakeholders, and for automating the generation of system documentation.

Work Together Seamlessly to Achieve Functionality
System engineering is a process that involves designing, developing, and managing complex systems such as powertrain, chassis, and electronics, to create a functional vehicle system. The process typically includes requirements analysis, design, development, testing, validation, maintenance and support.
One key aspect of the system engineering process is the adoption of a system-oriented mindset. This approach emphasizes the importance of understanding the system as a whole, rather than focusing solely on individual components or subsystems. By taking a system-oriented approach, engineers can ensure that the various components and subsystems work together seamlessly to achieve the desired performance and functionality of the vehicle. The process requires collaboration between various stakeholders, including engineers, designers, and suppliers, to ensure that the vehicle system meets customer requirements while also meeting safety, regulatory, and environmental standards. The process also involves the use of tools and methodologies for modeling and simulation, to test and validate the system before it is deployed in the market. By following a rigorous system engineering process and adopting a system-oriented mindset, we can support develop high-quality, reliable vehicles that meet the evolving needs of customers while staying competitive in a rapidly changing industry.
