Modern electrified ground vehicles introduce complex, multi-domain safety requirements, such as post-crash thermal runaway prevention, that expose the traceability limitations of Document-Based Systems Engineering (DBSE). This paper proposes a four-layer, bidirectional digital thread architecture that integrates Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) with high-fidelity, non-linear Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) crash simulations. Leveraging SysML, System-Theoretic Process Analysis (STPA), and Python-based orchestration middleware, the framework automates the translation of descriptive safety requirements into explicit finite element boundary conditions. The architecture programmatically extracts key performance indicators from massive binary solver outputs and injects them back into the SysML environment for automated compliance verification. Demonstrated through a simplified electric vehicle side-pole impact case study utilizing LS-DYNA and a 1D thermal model, the framework successfully eliminates manual data handoffs, accelerates multidisciplinary design optimization, and ensures robust, risk-driven requirement traceability across the engineering lifecycle.
