Environmental Trade-offs into MBSE: An Application of Ecodesign for Capella for System Architects
The growing demand for more environmentally sustainable products imposes new constraints and choices on system architects during the design phase. Traditionally, environmental performance trade-off analyses, such as Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), are carried out systematically outside of the Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) workflow and nearly exclusively by LCA specialists, with no direct connection to system design decisions.
