Phoenix Integration presents techniques for linking cost models with engineering performance models in order to evaluate system-level cost trade-offs. Techniques are discussed for building integrated models using common industry costing tools. Once constructed, trade studies can be run to perform "what if" analyses and to extract key trends from the system.
This web presentation is an excellent overview for engineers seeking to perform simulation integration and cost/performance analysis. Anyone interested in developing system models and analyzing discrete technology selections with CAIV optimization techniques is encouraged to review the presentation.
Topics included:
- Implementation of CAIV: real world issues.
- Wrapping costing tools: Price, SEER, ACEIT, and Excel.
- Generation of "knee in the curve" plots.
- System trade study techniques.
Examples included:
- Integration of Price and Excel with engineering performance models.
- Technology insertion cost trade-off for a UAV platform.
- Multi-objective cost vs performance studies.
