The class diagram displays the static structure and composition of a system.  In GENESYS the class diagram allows us to show the Component entities (blocks) that describe a system and display their attributes and operations as well as key relationships among the entities. The class diagram has its roots in …

When doing a system design we are often asked to design the system such that the system meets multiple standards.  Many times the desired standards overlap or are specific to more than one commercial segment.  For example, we may have to meet a set of government standards for one market …

In a recent blog post “The Future of Fully Connected MBSE” and a webinar “Connecting GENESYS to Analytical Engineering Tools” I discussed the mechanisms available for GENESYS to support the analytical aspects of our engineering design activities. In this blog post I will outline an example of how GENESYS can support the …

By Ron Kratzke, Principal Systems Engineer GENESYS 4.0 introduced two new diagrams – the Constraint Block Definition Diagram (BDD) and Parametric diagram. The addition of these two diagrams opens and expands insight into system design.  The Constraint BDD graphically displays the parameters restricting or constraining system design.  The Parametric diagram …
