Thursday, June 10, 2021, Obeo organized a Capella Webinar. This webinar has ended, but feel free to watch the recording.   Discover how MBSE is used on the Brazilian CubeSat development program. With two nanosatellites already in operation (NANOSATC-BR1 and NANOSATC-BR2), the Brazilian National Institute for Space Research (INPE-MCTI) is currently in the conceptual phase of a third mission (NANOSATC-BR3). Copyright MCTI-Brazil Giulia Herdies from the Federal University of Santa Maria in Brazil will present how the Capella tool and the Arcadia method are used in the second phase of the project, to develop the concept of this mission.   During this webinar, she will explain: Why the use of MBSE is vital for development of the conceptual phase, by allowing a global understanding of the mission by all involved. How stakeholders' needs and project restrictions were broken down within the operational, functional and physical aspects, which resulted in a preliminary ...

Thursday, May 27th, 2021, Obeo organized a Capella Webinar. This webinar has ended, but feel free to watch the recording.   While MBSE has a growing momentum, transforming engineering practices is still a major challenge today.   The Capella tool, through multiple feedbacks and its rapid adoption by the systems engineers community, constitutes a major enabler for the success of this journey. The Arcadia method plays a significant role, by offering a pragmatic vision of MBSE, centered on the practices and concerns of systems engineers. The holy grail of the single source of truth is at hand. But a tool like Capella is part of a larger ecosystem of engineering tools. The next challenge is now to make this repository of system data available to all stakeholders and to break down the silos between our engineering activities.     This webinar, after having introduced the problem, will illustrate how Publication for Capella and Cloud for Capella contribute&nb...

As a sponsor and participant, Obeo was happy to actively participate in this new edition. Discussing with you, presenting our new projects… EclipseCon 2020 was once again rich in new projects and discussions! Following our history, you already know how important open-source is here at Obeo. The expression is sometimes overused but here it is ever so truthful; “Open-source is in Obeo’s DNA”. That’s why in 2013, along with Thales, we made the choice to opt for an open-source Eclipse Sirius. And since hundreds of graphic modelers have been created, you can even find some in the Sirius Gallery But it’s time to go even further! Sirius Web will be following the same path as Sirius Desktop. So what’s Sirius Web? Sirius Web is based on the same fundamental principles as Sirius Desktop: It’s a unique technology that allows easy development of modeling tools...

While opening the 5th edition of SiriusCon, their online conference about Eclipse Sirius and graphical modeling, Obeo announced that they will open-source their new cloud-based solution. Strategic member of the Eclipse Foundation, Obeo has been working for years on modeling tools, with a strong commitment to Open Source, contributing to free software availability and to knowledge sharing. In 2014 with Thales co-involved in the project, they pushed the code of what is Obeo Designer, a core tool of their modeling technology. The open-source Eclipse Sirius project was born and has since become a solid and widely deployed solution to create graphical modeling workbenches. For a few months now, the Obeo team has been working hard to offer the goodness and capabilities of Sirius right into a browser through Obeo Cloud Platform, a cloud-based solution developed for deploying modeling tools to the web. Following their values and involvement in the open source community, Obeo chose to open ...

MBSE and Capella are kind of everywhere, even on a space mission! Astrobotics provides an end-to-end safe delivery service for payloads to the Moon. On each delivery mission to the Moon, those are integrated onto a single Peregrine Lunar Lander and then launched on a commercially procured launch vehicle. Mateus Venturini has made researches about one of Garatéa’s mission, the Brazilian first attempt to send a probe to lunar orbit / surface, and its Astrobotic lunar landing vehicle(the Peregrine Lunar Lander). The standard physical mounting interface for the payloads needs to be optimized for the specific mission profile. On the 25th of June discover how ITA, through the work of Mateus Venturini, used Capella to optimize all the systems of the Peregrine Lunar Lander.

Yesterday was World Oceans Day! 24 hours for a cause that deserves to be looked at every day. So we make the mobilization last a little longer by relaying the voice of the association The SeaCleaners, with which we have been collaborating for a year now. This association dedicated to the reduction of plastic pollution on land and on the sea works on the construction of the Manta, a ship capable of collecting and treating large amounts of plastic macro-waste floating on the surface of the oceans. Next to The SeaCleaners, and through the end of all our goodies we raise a message: everyone on their own scale, can act for better management of the oceans and their ecosystems. And even more today, with the current circumstances, and all the masks and other single-use products ending up in our stretch of water. “The after-world” needs our collective mobilization to go forward. Let’s protect our oceans together! Find here the tribune of Yvan Bourgnon, founder of The SeaCleaners Discover h...

Nowadays, modern products bring much more complexity for engineers. They have to manage with electronics, electrical systems, software and internet-of-things community. Engineers in different disciplines have to work together on design, to avoid costs increase and problem arising. Systems engineering coordinates design across engineering disciplines. But as teams, working together needs method and technology to support requirements: model-based systems engineering (MBSE) is one available. Discover how you can track systems engineering requirements for the entire product, how you can evaluate your performance and how to work collaboratively with a large number of engineers. Read this article written by Chad Jackson, Chief Analyst and CEO at Lifecycle Insights as guest author to understand why using MBSE and Capella is more efficient than using only spreadsheets and documents.  ...
