WORKSHOP ON MODEL BASED SYSTEM ENGINEERING FOR ARMAMENT AND

COMBAT VEHICLE TECHNOLOGY

Dignitaries on the Dias

Defence Institute of Advanced Technology (DU), Pune organized a workshop in collaboration with Dassault Systèmes, the 3DEXPERIENCE Company and 3D design software, 3D Digital Mock Up and Product Lifecycle Management Solutions on “Model Based System Engineering (MBSE) for Armament and Combat Vehicle Technology” on 29th May 2015. Dr. Surendar Pal, Vice Chancellor of DIAT presided over the inaugural function. The workshop was graced by Dr. Chandan Chowdhury Managing Director Dassault Systèmes India Pvt. Ltd, Mr. A.M. Datar, Director General, Armament and Combat Engineering Cluster. The workshop was chaired by Dr. S. K. Panigrahi, Professor and Head, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Dr. S. E. Talole, Dean (Technology) on the dias.

The students, faculty members and other premier educational institutions in India and DRDO scientists from Armament & Combat Vehicle clusters, Naval Science and Aero cluster etc., are participated. It introduced professionals and scientists to the MBSE fundamentals with a focus on Armament and Combat Vehicle.

Sharing his views on the workshop, Dr. Chandan Chowdhury, Managing Director, Dassault Systèmes said, “The day long national workshop on Model Based System Engineering for Armament and Combat Vehicle Technology was an attempt to introduce a novel approach in executing the Armament and Combat Vehicles related projects within cost, time and with desired quality and performance.”

This MBSE approach can be used in various defence projects from aerospace, marine engineering, missiles and robotics. It also provided insights into the area of MBSE based designs and impact of changing requirement on system design, which has also become integral part of system engineering practice. The workshop enabled participants to address critical gaps which lead to delay in projects, with Model Based System Engineering approach.

Chief Guest Mr. A M Datar Director General, Armament and Combat Engineering Cluster DRDO stated, “Research and Development is extremely critical in System Engineering. Even though the practice of System Engineering has existed for many years, with the growing complexity of defence projects, the adoption of MBSE has become the need of the hour and requires support by the available technology.”

Dr. S K Panigrahi, Dr. Talole and Dr. Pal highlighted the importance of Model based System Engineering and technical contribution of DIAT (DU). The session was also enriched by talks delivered by eminent professors from academia and industry on the evolution of System Engineering and its practical application in today‟s defence related projects. In addition to that, the workshop also showcased a methodical approach and use of technology to enable MBSE practices and shared successful case studies from across the globe.
