Acquisition Of Defense Materiel Starts With More Questions Than AnswersBernardo A. Delicado
Es necesario separar el dominio de la necesidad del dominio de la solución a lo largo del proceso de obtención de los Sistemas de Armas. Partir con respuestas preconcebidas sobre la solución no permite identificar las necesidades militares reales a cubrir, entender las alternativas de solución y de entre estas la óptima. La Ingeniería de Sistemas proporciona el marco para conseguir esta separación de dominios, por ello resulta prioritario en los procesos de obtención implantar esta disciplina que además permite tener un enfoque más holístico y sinérgico que integre desde el primer momento la visión de todos los actores. Además ayuda a dar respuesta a la complejidad de forma que las soluciones equilibren factores militares, humanos, económicos, tecnológicos y medioambientales, todos ellos fuertemente interrelacionados.
A pressing need for a true Systemic Technical Leadership in High-Tech Compani...Bernardo A. Delicado
Today’s business environment is more complex than ever. The complexity of globalisation and technology is putting demands on leaders of the 21st century, but not just any type of leaders, more than ever before, organisations around the globe trying to address today’s complex challenges or responding to radical change need technical leaders that render old ways of thinking inadequate for our current reality. As a result of that INCOSE’s Vision 2025 identifies the development of Systems Thinking and Technical Leadership as one of seven key areas of Systems Engineering Competency. Systems thinking is critical, as is the ability to continuously scan the environment in search of subtle trends and indicators of disruptive change, and the Technical Leadership role of the systems engineer on a project will be well established as critical to the success of a project. While not all systems engineers are technical leaders, all good technical leaders are systems thinkers, and they may be called systemic technical leaders. Beyond any doubt, and without fear of being mistaken, we can and must categorically affirm that the Systemic Technical leadership will be essential for innovation and transformation in High-Tech companies in a fast-changing world.
In a project Systems Engineering ensures the overall integrity of the design considering the space segment, the ground segment and the launch vehicle. Systems Engineering is an accepted practice in the space industry with an unstoppable growth and evolution because it brings a multi-disciplinary perspective that is critical to system product innovation, defect reduction and customer satisfaction. A systems engineer is a person who designs space missions and their vehicles by working together with engineers in the necessary disciplines. The technical leadership role of the systems engineer on a project is critical to the success of space projects driven by high safety and performance requirements, that is why demand is soaring for systems engineers in the space industries and government agencies worldwide ( including Spain). The session will help you to understand what makes an Effective Systems Engineer in terms of the expected competencies and the meaning of a Systems Engineering career path to a professional practitioner according to the world's leading organisations in the Space sector.
Competency is a measure of an individual’s ability in terms of knowledge, skills, and behaviour to perform a given role in the Systems Engineering processes. The competency planning and deployment of Systems Engineering competencies are considered as one key factor in the successful re-industrialisation and digital transformation of Europe.
ISECF can be applied in the context of any application, project, organisation or enterprise for both individual and/or organisational assessment and/or development.
Systems Engineering is a very broad , overarching, and generally applicable engineering discipline. Many types of systems are developed using SE. These include biomedical systems, space vehicle systems, weapon systems, transportation systems, and so on.
Systems Engineering involves the coordination of work performed by engineers from all other engineering disciplines (electrical, mechanical, computer, software, etc.) as required to complete the engineering work on the project/program.
In an increasingly complex world, sometimes old questions require new answers. INCOSE’s Vision 2025 identifies the development of Systems Thinking and Technical Leadership as one of seven key areas of Systems Engineering Competencies.

Hybrid optimization of pumped hydro system and solar- Engr. Abdul-Azeez.pdffxintegritypublishin
Advancements in technology unveil a myriad of electrical and electronic breakthroughs geared towards efficiently harnessing limited resources to meet human energy demands. The optimization of hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems plays a pivotal role in utilizing natural resources effectively. This initiative not only benefits humanity but also fosters environmental sustainability. The study investigated the design optimization of these hybrid systems, focusing on understanding solar radiation patterns, identifying geographical influences on solar radiation, formulating a mathematical model for system optimization, and determining the optimal configuration of PV panels and pumped hydro storage. Through a comparative analysis approach and eight weeks of data collection, the study addressed key research questions related to solar radiation patterns and optimal system design. The findings highlighted regions with heightened solar radiation levels, showcasing substantial potential for power generation and emphasizing the system's efficiency. Optimizing system design significantly boosted power generation, promoted renewable energy utilization, and enhanced energy storage capacity. The study underscored the benefits of optimizing hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems for sustainable energy usage. Optimizing the design of solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems as examined across diverse climatic conditions in a developing country, not only enhances power generation but also improves the integration of renewable energy sources and boosts energy storage capacities, particularly beneficial for less economically prosperous regions. Additionally, the study provides valuable insights for advancing energy research in economically viable areas. Recommendations included conducting site-specific assessments, utilizing advanced modeling tools, implementing regular maintenance protocols, and enhancing communication among system components.

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.
