    2 Concurrent Engineering Through DMUThe creation and existence of a Digital Mock-Up and the availability of the DMU toother departments than engineering allows these departments to start their work in theearly phases of the development process using the data that already exist and bealways sure to work on up-to-date information.

    This systematic approach to product design, taking into account all the elements of thelifecycle, from concept to disposal, including the definition of the product itself, themanufacturing processes and the support processes is known as ConcurrentEngineering.

    The following figure shows the common milestones and the shared products of thedevelopment process and how the development of the aircraft, of the industrial means(industrialization) and of the support means can be run in parallel.

    Examples for specific views are:

    The As-Designed layer : a functional breakdown. It is the result of theengineering process organised in an engineering view. The As-Planned layer : an industrial breakdown. Its used to produce the

    Definition Dossier. It is the result of the engineering process organised in amanufacturing view.

    The DMU Product structure shall be an extraction of the As-Designed or As-Plannedview with an implementation of Master Geometry, Design Principle, Frontier Model,and SAM.

    It will be a single-level reference assembly with design principles as component partsand native CAD assemblies copied as PS structures.

    The product structure will be created and maintained by the Designer and the groupLeader and used for design review, for Bill of Material (BoM) generation. This ProductStructure is delivered to Production, to Procurement and to the Tooling Design Officefor use.

    The master Product Structure incorporates the latest solutions from differentdesign teams and RSPs/CoE.

    For delivery of a baseline status, an entire Product Structure can bereleased by the DMU team.

    3.2 DMU Basic Rules

    3.2.1 Design Considerations for DMU

    Digital Mock-up exploits the "Definition Dossier", it gives the possibility to designers, towork in "context" by using models necessary to create the environment in their design

    solutions. The various models will be designed and assembled in aircraft position,implying the management of their different tolerance build up like: Tolerance, conditionof supply or not, sealant representation or not between models.

    3.2.1.1 Rules to manage Tolerance

    3.2.1.1.1 For A350WXB :

    The dimensions o f a part are characterized by:

    - theoretical dimensions -> e.g. : 2mm thickness, 25 mm length

    Warning: Consistency between tolerances of Frontier Drawings and DMU shall beensured in the context of DMU as the master.

    - The tolerances -> e.g : 0,3mm

    Dimensions and tolerances depends on :

    - Engineering requirements -> e.g.: aerodynamics leading to uncentred tolerancesin general (e.g.: doors, radome, )

    - Manufacturing constraints: industrial machines only use centred tolerances

    For tolerance, two cases are possible:

    - If there is no specific requirement on tolerance:

    The general tolerance is applicable.

    No tolerance to be indicated on the drawing sheet

    - If there is specific requirement applicable on tolerance:

    General tolerance is not applicable.

    Tolerance must be specified on the drawing. E.g : 2 0,05, 2 0,1, 25 2

    Rule in case of specif ic tol erances:

    Whatever the dimension and tolerances :

    Centred tolerances must be favored -> e.g: 2 0,2, 2 0,05, 2 1,0

    - In case of uncentred tolerances, the parts shall be designed at the nominal (average)value (ie : theoretical value) to enable the use of centred tolerances -> e.g : 4 +0,2/-0becomes 4,1 0,1 and the CAD model is designed at 4,1.

    - When uncentred tolerances cannot be avoided (i.e: 2+0/+0,3), Tolerance skillgroup must be contacted for validation.

    As a consequence o f th is ru le, a specifi c master geometry wi ll be created andshall be us ed.

    Whatever the tolerances used, RSP shall r espect t he ones imposed by Airbusat the junctions

    Note: inside their own workpackage, RSP are free to use whatever tolerances theywant

    3.2.1.1.2 For A400M, A380 and previous progr ams

    A-F

    All models are designed using the average dimension . For fit face from a model, thetolerance will be integrated inside the 3D model, so inside the DMU.

    Process in progress.

    3.2.1.2.2 CoS for A400M, A380 and previous programs

    A-F

    All 3D models in DMU are designed as in the real aircraft. Inside some specific layers,are integrated surfaces for the extra material representation on thickness and shape.

    A-UK

    The visualization layers contain only geometry as flown on the aircraft. Otherinformation are included inside specific non-visualized layers or on 2D drawing.

    A-D

    In general, the 3D models are designed as they are built into the aircraft. Sheet metalparts have their final geometry and the un-bended raw sheet in the same model on thesame layer, but the un-bended geometry is hidden in the "no-show" space andtherefore not visible in the visualization files.

    Special design situations are represented and managed in the product structure byadditional nodes, which are identified by special naming extensions. For instance, solid

    models which are divided into several smaller solid models (because of the limited sizeof the 3D model files) are identified by "-SOLnn". Welded assemblies are representedby a single part which is marked as a "-CUTnn", flexible parts or assemblies areflagged as "-FLXnn", component parts which are machined after they have beenassembled with other parts are identified also by "-CUTnn" extension and fastenerparts which hold all fasteners of the same type in a given assembly are represented inone single node in the product structure with the extension "-CPPnn" for rivets, "-SRWnn" for screws and"-NUTnn" for nuts (in all these cases "nn" represents a counter - starting from "01").

    A-E

    Taking into account that some specific layers must be used to avoid information notrequired in translation to visualization format.

    3.2.1.3 Sealant /Interfay allowance representation

    3.2.1.3.1 For A350

    In order to simplify design activities and to have a harmonized way of working thefollowing rules are applied:

    A-F

    All models are designed face to face without any clearance. Models are designedusing the average dimension.

    A-UK

    Any wing components that are not directly modelled using either inside skins or spargirths may be designed with or without the "interfay" allowance, subject to theindividual specialists discretion in conjunction with the Mock-up Integrator.

    Specific example:

    Spars

    All spars top and bottom skin attachment flanges (caps) shall incorporate theallowance.

    For interfay, however, to minimise on programme the rib post shall notinclude allowance.

    A-D

    In general, the models are designed face-to-face. But when sealant is necessarybetween parts the interfay allowance will be considered in the design, for instance instringer/skin and clip/skin joints, stringer couplings by offsetting the parts by 0,2 mm.

    A-E

    The models are designed face to face considering thickness of painting and sealing inthose cases that leave outside tolerance admitted.

    3.2.2 Part pos itioning in the DMU

    The Master Geometry defines the different axis system position for each AircraftProgramme.

    For example the draft V06G10925 gives the reference axis system for the global A350aircraft.

    In the tree root node, the Default Axis System is the fuselage principal axis (fuse0).

    After, RSPs/CoE must provide schemes defining their section positioning conventions.With those informations, the A/C MGY integrator must provide a A/C datum drawingincluding 3D section axis systems and drawing defining each section axis convention.

    3.2.2.2 Matri ces Organisation Inside the Product structure

    Coordinate systems are defined by the Master Geometry group and distributed to eachoperational team to be used as reference in the design and for the exchange ofinformation.

    For this definition there will be two levels:

    The Aircraft level: already agreed in the drawing "Reference Axis System".

    The operational team level

    Each configuration Item shall have a known positioning matrix relative to thereference axis system of the section.

    This matrix will be frozen and never change during the life cycle.

    In general, configuration item shall be created with 0,0,0 positioning matrix (sectionaxis).

    In some specific cases, configuration item will be created with reference axis in thesection, managed by Master Geometry group.

    Each time a new configuration item is exchanged, this information has to be explicitlysent.

    Receiver of data exchange can use the Drawings to correctly position the datareceived.

    Implementation method:

    New Aircraft:

    Configuration item will be created with 0,0,0 matrix related to the section.

    Existing Aircraft:

    New configuration item will be created with 0,0,0 matrix related to the section.

    These attributes are allocated to the As Defined Link Object (ADF-LO).No = Baseline: solution which is in line with Change Note implementationdecision done in A/C Change Control Board or A/C Configuration ControlCommittee

    Pending (yes/no)

    Yes = Alternative: solution in competition with the baseline or old solution True = SAM solution loadable by DMU generation tool including kinematics,maintainability, swept volumes Mockup

    (true/false) False = solution not wanted to be seen (e.g. MGY, DP, alternative SAM)

    ACbaseline not used

    ACE-kindfile

    Used to identify the type of DMU objects. S = Space Allocation Mock-up (SAM) P = Developed/detailed Design Principles (DP) F = Frontier and Interface Drawings (FD & ID) G = Master Geometry

    Comments Free text . Used to configure the LO. it shall hold the Change(s) Note(s)implemented, it satisfies.

    Criteria Selection list of criteria. The link between criteria and scenario is managed in theconfiguration allocation table.

    3.5 DMU Baseline management

    In order to ensure concurrent engineering and work sharing during concept anddefinition phases, it is necessary to identify the states of each solution within the DMU:

    DMU baseline:

    DMU baseline = Basic Change Notes + all the Change Notes decided forimplementation during the Configuration Change Board (CCB).

    Golden Rule: To have a complete DMU baseline, it is mandatory to have one and onlyone DMU baseline solution per scenario

    Alternative solutions:

    During concept and definition phase, it is often necessary to create one or severalalternative solutions by anticipation (before creation of the change note) or based onthe CN in investigation or implementation (decided by each Integrated ProductionTeam) or even a CN already closed.

    - DMU preferred alternative (= challenger)

    In order to identify the solution candidate to be in the next baseline, it is possible (butnot mandatory) to define one solution as DMU preferred alternative.

    In that case, no more than one solution shall have be in DMU preferred alternative:- DMU not preferred alternative (formers investigated solutions)

    Master Geometry is the interface between aerodynamic shape of the aircraft anddesign, manufacturing, stress and certification processes. This information comprisesof wire frame and surface models. Master Geometry is the single source of digital datathat is controlled by the DBD (Data Basis for Design). It is the single authoritativesource of key data for design, production and inter-COE study work. Master Geometryis the basis from which design principles can be generated.

    Wing and fuselage geometry have different processes because of differentfunctionality. For example the wing has a flight shape issued at the beginning ofconcept phase (MG3) and also rib 1 for wing to fuselage join-up. This is frozen at thistime. The process is due in part to the high level of kinematics interaction on the wingwith the flight control surfaces.

    4.2.2 Design Principle

    Design Principles are broken into two categories generic and specific. Generic coversmethods and techniques developed throughout the aircraft industry and those specificto Airbus, but which would be applied across the product family. For example, common

    and agreed design principles for windows, doors junction frame, cross beams orframing reinforcements.

    Specific Design principles are adaptations to a particular aircraft and are classified astechnology, concepts and detail design principles.

    DP may transfer technology from research projects and may concern materials &process, assembly & manufacturing techniques and systems technology. They will besupported by the necessary documentation and testing to ensure certification.

    The Design Principle defines best practices through rules and conception methods.

    The essential goals are:

    To Standardise design solutions throughout the aircraft, To Harmonise interfaces, To Formalize technical solutions,

    To Share the design rationale, To capitalise and exchange knowledge about the way of working between all A/C

    actors, Provide main directives/constraints needed to model elementary parts.

    The first objective is to have rapid results, which will be light but with allnecessary information, can be easily altered and still allow the production of 2Ddrawings for annotation.

    Structural Design Principles are commonly designed with 2.5 D representations, whichgive the possibility to integrate more details inside 3D sections in a short time.

    For Systems, the first objective is to define the space allocation, so, a solidrepresentation is more used.

    During the feasibility phase, Design Principles are first used to create the General Assemblies, cabin layouts and plan-form views to create the Data Basis for Design(DBD) at Aircraft level.

    When a design principle begins to mature, through a design review or validation theywill be used to create Space Allocation Models by adding 3D features to individualmodel such as extrusions or by creating separate SAM models. Product structure treeswill manage the relationships between Design Principles and Space Allocation Models.

    SIRD System Installation Requirements Dossier is composed by:

    one document, SIRD documents, one 3D layout, SIRD layout.

    The dossier has to give for each ATA (sub ATA) all necessary information oninstallation requirements (equipment, routes, location, sizing, segregation...).

    4.2.3.1 SIRD General princ iples

    - SIRD are elaborated for each ATA on the whole A/C.- SIRD are elaborated and refined progressively from the beginning of the

    concept phase (MG3) to be mature enough around MG 4.2.- SIRD are involving all actors in relation with system installation for capturing

    and integrating as many installation requirements and constraints as possibleand as soon as possible.

    - SIRD layouts are system architecture installation concepts and not installationdesign.

    4.4.4 Front ier Model (Assembly Front ier Drawing)

    As the design principle is developed in-line with the B.T.F.D., separate drawings arecreated for each interface within the Frontier. These B.A.F.D. will be numbered asScheme/Space Allocation drawings and will be used to enable the design to proceedwithin each CoE/operational team. B.A.F.D. will have a limited life and will be replacedby the full detail part, assembly, "45" and ICY drawings when they are created.

    Base Assembly Frontier Drawing may contain the following information:

    Final functional requirements of the product (FIT - FORM - FUNCTION) Detailed drawing of the frontier (detailed design principles) Dimensional physical datum (Where agreed) Functional dimensions of the different items Assembly allowances: Extra material on thickness and shape

    Interfay sealant and sealant seal

    Fasteners installed and torque-tightened , not bolted

    Struts pre-rigged at section level (length), not torque-tightened, not blocked etc.

    Drilling allowances: several kind sof condition of supply regarding holes:Blank hole , pilot hole, final size, etc.

    Definition of the space reserved for assembly and disassembly operations of spares(key overall dimensions etc.)

    4.5 Data for Manufactur ing

    4.5.1 Definit ion Model (GRM)These are the models used for process planning and numerical commandprogramming. They will accurately reflect the weight, stress requirements andgeometry of a given component, which will be represented as a single node in theproduct structure tree. Definition models will have a level of maturity that must becarefully managed as tooling is developed concurrently with part definition and will relyon key features that are frozen.

    Best practice techniques have been developed for modeling detail parts. For examplerules for multi-element parts for large models and interfay allowances for structure.

    4.5.2 Junc tion/Installation Drawing & Frontier Model

    The Junction/Installation drawing is the manufacturing drawing with a bill of materialused to assemble sections/work-package, or to install systems on structure.

    Each RSP/CoE must deliver a Package Frontier Model updated with the final modelsto produce the final assembly junction or installation drawing.

    Final models are an exact geometry with position and direction of holes and they allowto make a last checking of the interface geometry.

    5 Maturity of DataTo allow early publishing of design information, we propose associating a maturityattribute with Design Principles and Space Allocation Mock-up, which gives anindication of the progress of the design work.

    A, B, or C maturity can be associated with these two products when they arepublished.

    These maturity levels are applicable to structure as well as systems installation.

    The goal of this maturity level information is:

    give our internal customers the ability to identify the "maturity" level of the data:avoid engaging a tooling study on data that only formalises a concept that has notbeen validated by stress calculation for instance,

    give the different group leaders in the operational teams the ability to track thedesign progress through indicators showing the sum of the data maturity for a givendesign scenario,

    scheduling the maturity of design principles also allows to give a general work planto design, as well as arising discussions when a partner considers that the foreseenschedule does not meet his needs/requirements.

    The maturity information is not mandatory. It is up to the group leader to define andplan the publications of the defined elements, in agreement with his internal customers.

    If tooling studies and realization are carried out based on data not officials in theDefinition Dossier, it is up to the operational team to validate the risk taken. In no casemust the maturity information alone (which gives an indication on the progress of thedesign work) be considered sufficient to take those risks.

    Design maturities (Maturity A, B or C) are common to all people involved on A350XWB or on previous program.

    5.4 Change Management

    Configuration Control (CC) is the systematic process, which ensures that changes to abaseline are properly identified, documented, evaluated for impact, approved by anappropriate level of authority, incorporated, and verified.

    Change Management, is the requirement that introduces and forms the traceable linkacross the design data. It occurs at all levels of the product structure, from high-levelaircraft requirement changes through to piece-part modifications. Change Managementis essential in enabling concurrent design to take place effectively. It is a formal meansof communication between interested and affected parties, which makes visible thereasons for change and the impacts that this may have. Change management worksalong side the process of baselining, which is a means of declaring the latestconfiguration of the aircraft at a point in time.

    Baseline Management ensures the establishment and the appropriate recording ofdata used for a specific program review. Subsequent to the review, the baseline is

    frozen when all recommendations and corrective actions and planned work leading upto the milestone is complete. This provides traceability of key product definition datarequired by the Airworthiness Authorities in design decision tracking.

    The baseline may be a simple list of data, such as requirements, schemes, models,interfaces, manufacturing data, technical specifications, calculations and programs.

    During the definition and subsequent project phases changes to product data will beappropriately identified, approved and captured within a specific ECN. This will ensurethe control of individual parts requiring a more critical approval, and also ensure thatany part is mature enough for manufacture or for tooling purposes and subsequentcertification.
