Publisher Summary

This chapter contains an example that describes the application of SysML to the design of a water distiller, intended for use in remote, undeveloped areas of the world. This example starts with a description of the problem, and selection of an appropriate approach to system modeling will follow. Because of the abstract nature of this problem, the system is developed using a traditional functional analysis approach, which is both familiar and intuitive to many practicing systems engineers. This approach is generally consistent with the simplified MBSE method. The example also illustrates its application to modeling physical systems with limited software functionality. Examples of each SysML diagram are used to support the specification, ...
