Abstract:
Presented are rapid and robust techniques for estimating the uncertainty in product attributes (performance, cost, etc.) during the multi-disciplinary design and analysis phase of the product life-cycle. The techniques leverage the capabilities of a preexisting constraint management system that may be used to calculate performance and cost metrics of an engineering system as a function of the design structure and operational scenarios. The techniques are particularly useful when the constraint management system is used to automate the reverse computation required when the analyst specifies cost, schedule, or performance targets using approaches such as cost as independent variable. Disclosed techniques may also be applied to constraint management systems that include compound-valued variables.
