Results

Take away

  • The maintainability of on-board systems can be successfully optimized using the tools of the AGILE4.0 framework
  • Optimization shows little potential considering the low level of detail of the early design stage.
  • Interdependence between the maintainability domain and the overall aircraft design domain were less pronounced than expected.
