Red=Withdrawn


Instead of creating 3 sessions with 4 papers each, create 2 sessions with 6 papers each: – Design Process I– Design Process II / Design Engineering

•With 12 initial papers, even with 4 withdrawls we would still have 4 papers in each session.•If Clark didn’t quickly respond with another paper, we would have one session with only 2 papers •Sessions with less than 4 papers:

– Are discouraged by AIAA– Dilute the importance of the session (especially best paper)– Cost more $$$ than combining sessions

Lesson Learned from SDM ’08


SDM ’09 Planning Meeting• May 4-7 at Palm Springs – Make reservations early!!• Special Session Requests must be submitted by July 24.

– Special sessions are subjects not typically part of a TC but require a TC’s sponsorship

• Abstracts are due Aug 11– TC’s have the right to accept late abstracts but they must contact us personally

since CAS will not accept them directly

• Manuscripts due March 30• 6 papers per session, maximize use of rooms• No invited papers but can be encouraged – must still go

through review process• Panel Sessions may be a partial session combined with paper

session• October planning meeting baselined at DC but other

alternatives are being considered – at major airline hub such as Chicago.

2008 Design Engineering Award

• Recipient: Mr. Alan R. Wiechman– Vice President-Advance Systems for Integrated

Defense Systems, Boeing• Citation: “For advancement of aircraft survivability through radar

signature reduction, including test range fixture validation of low observable characteristics, and leading low observables integration for demonstrator and operational aircraft.”

• Awards Luncheon is Wednesday• Mr Wiechman Spoke to TC Wed Morning• Will We Attempt a 2009 Award? Not unless a 3rd

nomination comes in.


Planning for the DETC Annual AIAA Highlights

• We need contributions from each of the Subcommittees.• Publication in the December Aerospace America.• Deadline was ~Sept.• Focus on projects and products to which the DETC members’

organizations contributed “on the board” design.• TC activities are excluded from the article.• Present other significant accomplishments• Current template: 1200 words on two pages with only two

pictures.• Marc Cohen coordinated our prior attempt, but insufficient

contributions were received. • Russ Althof coordinated our 2007 attempt. Marc didn’t turn it

in.• Who will coordinate the 2008 attempt? Russ Althof


AIAA Year in Review• Look for articles and information on Design

Engineering and Design Process for 2008• Submit those articles or select a topic and write

a draft paragraph for the Year in Review• Provide photos where available• Be sure to get proper approval for material within

your organization that has not been publicly released

• Send any information, articles, draft paragraphs, photos, etc to:– Russ Althof [email protected]

Splitting the DETC Bank Account with new SATC

• The Approved Plan was Provided by Bob Dauwalter 12/27/2007

• The Amount Sent Off With The New SATC– SATC members contributed ~20% over the years– 20% of Current Balance is ~$150– Shahzad Khaligh of SATC Informed and Agreed– Bob Dauwalter sent $150 to SATC 3/1/2008

• Done


SDM 2009 Paper Session Planning

• Brian Robbers is DETC Representative

• Similar Time Line in 2009

• 50th Anniversary Year

• We Need to Recruit More Papers– Especially on Process & MBD

• Call For Papers is Published


Web Update

• Pravit reported that he updated the DETC website prior to SDM07.

• Visit http://www.aiaa.org/tc/de/

Please check your entry, photo, biography and contact information and send any updates to Pravit at: [email protected].

We also need to consider:• Clean Up Subcommittee and DETC 5 Year Plans

(assigned to S/C chairs after SDM07)• Post Announcements of Conference Sessions w/ Call for

Papers• Post the DETC Meeting Minutes

Not Updated Yet


Proposal to Develop a Participation Model

• Significant Element of Successful SATC Approval & New Operations

• Objectives:– Give Alternative to Conference Attendance due to Travel Costs– Encourage Participation in other DETC Business

• Formula Probably a Weighted Combination of Activity Involvement– Conference Meeting Attendance, Remote Participation– Subcommittee Telecons, Working Activities– Paper Review, Paper Session Chair, Paper Judge, Session

Presence– TC Leadership via S/C Chair, Liaison, Awards or Membership– Publications via AIAA and TC Paper Sessions– Other? E.G. DBF, …


Baseline Participation Model1. DETC Members must accrue a minimum of (10) points per calendar year to remain a

member in good standing. 2. Attendance at one DETC meeting per year is mandatory; (two) strongly encouraged.3. Point value for DETC participation:

Attendance at a DETC meeting: 4 pointsConference Meeting Remote Participation: 1 point for each occurrence, maximum of (2) to be

credited Subcommittee Telecons, Working Activities 1 point for each occurrence, maximum of (3) to

be credited Paper Review, Paper Session Chair, Paper Judge, Session Presence 1 point for each

occurrence, maximum of (3) to be credited.TC Leadership via S/C Chair, Liaison, Awards or Membership : 1 point for each occurrence,

maximum of (3) to be credited: Publications via AIAA and TC Paper Sessions: 1 point for each occurrence, maximum of (3) to

be credited4. A member in good standing may carry over up to (2) points from prior year's

activities.5. Any member not meeting the (10) point requirement will be placed in a probationary

status for one year.6. Any member not meeting the (10) point requirement for two consecutive years may

be removed from the committee.7. DETC members from academia & international may remain in good standing with

accrual of (6) points per calendar year.

Break-out for Subcommittee Meetings

• Design Guide

• Design Process


Reconvene for Subcommittee Reports

• Design Guide

• Design Process

Subcommittees should submit written minutes to include in the DETC Minutes 30 days after the meeting.


Follow Up Reports Due

• Liaison:– Russ Althof, DBF

• Membership: Jim Faoro

• Subcommittees– Sid Rowe, Design Process – Included– Bob Dauwalter, Design Guide

Design Process Subcommittee Report• We discussed the boundaries for MBD as relates to similar activities: Model based

design, model based manufacturing (MBM), model based engineering (MBE) and multidisciplinary design & analysis (MDA). The basic common tenants of MBD would seem to at least include (1) control (including release) of data (model and related data like in some cases drawings), (2) standards or agreements related to tailoring or formatting data. It was agreed that requirements and verification are linked to but not part of MBD. It was stated that most successful companies have a process for controlling data in a manual process, and there are differing ways that are being approached for going to an electronic process. One is just digitizing the manual process and another is including some process improvement activities. We addressed the differing levels of MBD and came to the conclusion that most people are not all the way into MBD (i.e. where there are no drawings). In the arena where you have a model and drawing which medium controls in the case that they do not agree. DPSC is attempting to carve out a niche that will help the community in this area.

• Actions:– Ask Bill James if he will have time to put together an activity plan or mission

statement with respect to where we are going with MBD. (Rowe/James)– Put together a timeline associated with plan after it is developed. (Rowe)– Solicit other companies as to where they are with MBD. (everyone)
