SysML 201 - Model-Based Engineering Fundamentals: Creating SysML Models

Course Description

In this SysML 201 course, you'll go beyond the comprehension skills you acquired in DEF 4508P - SysML 101-Model-Based Engineering-Fundamentals: Understanding SysML Models. Take your model-based engineering skills to the next level by learning to implement essential concepts through hands-on sessions and exercises with a representative Systems Modeling Language (SysML) tool. These skills will be reinforced by doing useful things with the resulting SysML models – not just building them for the sake of documentation. You will experience the critical difference between authoring a SysML model with elements versus simply drawing diagrams. With the resulting knowledge, you will be equipped to expand your organization’s model-based enterprise capabilities.

What You Will Learn

  • Models in a SysML tool that include the nine standard diagrams learned in SysML 101 and their associated model constructs
  • SysML activity models that are executable (e.g., to operate a system)
  • SysML models that contain calculations and execute parametric simulations
  • System requirements based on analysis calculations
  • How to auto-generate requirements traceability matrices

How You Will Benefit

  • Understand the benefits and costs of implementing SysML models in a real SysML tool (versus sketching SysML diagrams in a drawing tool).
  • Learn how SysML bridges diverse models for analysis, simulation, and trade studies.
  • Experience how SysML supports model-based request for proposals (RFPs) and model-based responses during a capstone team competition.
  • Gain exposure to executable state machines and how they form the architecture for behaviors in complex systems.
