Abstract

This paper presents a Systems Engineering (SE) approach for development of the Emergency Electrical System (EES) for aircraft with Fly by Wire. After creating the model of the EES and its components relationship, these components were analyzed using the method Total View Framework, which has proved to be an important tool in the design and development of complex products. The proposed method, which includes aspects of the product, the processes and the organization, is justified in light of the failure of performance of traditional project management. In traditional approaches, the inherent complexity in product development is not taken into account. The authors believe this approach will promote the identification of items that meet the requirements related to quality, safety and reliability of multiple factors at the stage of project design.
