TAS-I Virtual Reality Tool for COLUMBUS MSP/PEI Stage Analysis Verification: Case Studies and Lesson Learned

It is widely recognized that Virtual Reality (VR) environment fosters team performance and design quality in addition to provide time and cost savings in the frame of verification processes. The selected case studies described in this paper are based on the experience matured in the frame of the interaction between TAS-I HFE and other expert groups for MSP/PEI stage analysis performance in support of the COLUMBUS internal and external payloads overall operability. The selected case studies will be used for demonstrating and evaluating results, guiding the new emerging engineering system architecture, by integrating tools, methods and processes in the frame of the TAS-I Concurrent Design Facility (CDF) implementation for Aerospace applications.
