ESTECO Launches MBSE Plugin

ESTECO has released a new model-based systems engineering plugin that connects Dassault Systèmes’ Cameo Systems Modeler with the VOLTA digital engineering platform for simulation process and data management (SPDM) and multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO). This integration enables MBSE teams to link system architecture models with simulation process automation and integration workflows for MDO studies, and realize the digital thread between MBSE and simulation through an SPDM framework.

The MBSE plugin to VOLTA enables ability to enhance traceability between requirements, analysis parameters, and simulation results, within the SysML environment.

“With this plugin, we’re enabling a more connected and automated MBSE workflow,” says Roel Van De Velde, Vice President of Aerospace & Defense at ESTECO. “Our customers needed a solution that bridges the gap between system modeling and engineering simulation analysis, and this delivers exactly that.”

Features include:

• Direct integration with VOLTA repositories for retrieving, mapping, and linking analysis projects and parameters.
• Bi-directional traceability between Cameo system models and VOLTA-managed simulation results.
• Support for API-based authentication and project metadata search within the plugin interface.

The plugin improves verification and validation activities earlier in the system development process.

Interested parties can explore a detailed overview and demonstration of the new plugin's capabilities by viewing the dedicated on-demand webinar on ESTECO’s website.
