Entwicklung einer Methodik zur ganzheitlichen Simulation eines auf Verwaltungsschalen basierten dezentralen Flugzeugproduktionssystems

Abstract

Developing new types of aircraft is a costly and lengthy process. The majority of costs later incurred during development is determined by decisions made in early phases of development. It is therefore vital to investigate the affect such decisions have during early phases of development. The concept of Asset Administration Shell(AAS) in particular offers the possibility of implementing a modern, flexible and robust production system. In order to evaluate the producibility of an aircraft within a production system based on AAS, methods are required to model and simulate the production processes in the early stages of development. For this purpose, a methodology utilizing the System Modeling Language (SysML) for modelling and simulating production systems based on AAS was developed as part of this work. This methodology was then applied to a use case in aircraft production. The selected use case was both executed in a real production system and simulated in a modelled production system. The accuracy of the simulation was discussed by comparing the simulated production process with the real production process.
