New course

Goals

After the course, students should be able to:
• Describe how products and services from different technical areas can be integrated into a system.
• Describe basic concepts in Systems Engineering.
• Specify and analyze system requirements.
• Design and model a system architecture.
• Use a modeling languages such as Modelica and/or SysML to describe a small systen.
• Model, analyze, simulate, and optimize a system.
• Plan implementation of a system.
• Validate a system.
• Perform environmental and lifecycle design and management of a system

Prerequisites

General undergraduate level knowledge in engineering, mathematics, programming languages and programming.

Organization

Lectures integrated with interactive exercises, a few small project assignments, and a medium-sized project on modeling and optimizing a hybrid vehicle.

Contents

This is an introductory course in systems engineering with emphasis on model-based systems development, design, and analysis using tools. The course include general methods which are useful within a range of system engineering domains, e.g., computer science, software engineering, machine design, electrical engineering, vehicular systems, aerospace applications, transport systems, project management, lifecycle design and analysis, Product/Service Systems.

Literature

The course will use a set of resources on theoretical se well as practical matters pertaining to Systems Engineering.

Examiner

Peter Fritzson

Examination

Joint project assignments on modeling, verification and simulation,
including the medium-sized course project on modeling and optimizing a hybrid vehicle, and individual oral examination on theoretical matter and project assignments at the end of the course.

Credit

6 HEC

It is possible to get 1-2 extra credits for a small project of your own choice

People who already know Modelica can/should skip the two Modelica course days and the associated theoretical matter. However, to compensate, they should suggest a small project or related theoretical matter of their own choice, to be approved by the course leader.

Comments

The course will be open for PhD students from several departments at LiU, most notably IDA, ISY, and IEI.
