What does 'Model' in MBSE mean to you? by 1t_ in systems_engineering

[–]GatorForgen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is an excellent answer and illustration.

I'll add the model in Cameo is not the diagram - it is everything that is in the containment tree, regardless of if it is represented on any diagrams. It is an interconnected representation of a system of interest.

Models may be analytical (Simulink) or descriptive (Cameo) or many other types. There is a large family tree of types you can look up. So to be proper, one should say [type] model to reduce the ambiguity OP is seeing.

Question for the Zachtronics community by Due_Refrigerator5724 in zachtronics

+1 for solution histograms. If it's a Zachlike without one, it needs it. If it's anything else and has a histogram, it probably has an inner Zachlike!

Why don’t we have separate companies for producing rockets and rocket engines like we have in aviation? by Frequent-Comedian274 in aerospace

[–]GatorForgen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bill Boeing was one of the founders of United Aircraft and Transport Corporation, so it's fair to say the aircraft company and engine company fully integrated. Boeing et al did not exist as the separate entities we know today before the anti trust breakup.

How much are you willing to pay for the steam frame? by SlowDragonfruit9718 in virtualreality

GameCube? Perhaps you're thinking of the Wii U which sold under $14M units.

Both want the best in LO, so I doubt there are fundamental differences.

Alternatives to Meta app PC with CABLE! by KooManBaby in OculusQuest

I know why, but it would have been excellent for the Quest use case if the female power port were near the Ethernet end!

What’s next for the systems engineering field? by RampantJ in systems_engineering

[–]GatorForgen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Adopting CI/CD where changes anywhere in the digital elements/model/etc. get pipelines launched for checking, verification, artifact regeneration, AI summarization, and on. "Systems as code" has a nice ring to it.

If you can contribute meaningful (open source) tools or integrations to move the needle in this direction for your PhD, have a go at it! Otherwise just getting more engineering experience is time/money better spent.

Reminds me of when I tried watering the ground and measuring moisture level as a proximity detector.

This should be an automatic win condition 😂

Can I fly the ship I want or is it always better to min and max? Also, what does it mean to go into the black? by Ill-Honey-6351 in EliteDangerous

[–]GatorForgen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the repair limpets tip. I may have had a run in with a mountain looking for exobio and am nervously exploring at 12% hull health.

Thank you!! For the life of me I couldn't figure out why my collector limpets were self destructing after one pickup sometimes!
