Abstract
As aviation systems become more complex, the traditional document-driven development method in aviation development faces serious limitations in requirements management, system integration and fault analysis. Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) has therefore become a research hotspot in aviation. On this background, the development of Single-Pilot Operations (SPO) concept imposes more requests for autonomous monitoring, fault detection and health management of engine systems in future passenger planes. Focusing on aero-engine systems, in this paper, literature review and inductive analysis are used to elaborate systematically on the state-of-the-art research of MBSE-based aero-engine system modeling and fault analysis. The theoretical foundation of MBSE, aero-engine systems and SPO are introduced. Then, it summarizes the application of MBSE to engine requirements analysis, system modeling and simulation verification, and reviews the main kinds of aero-engine fault analysis methods now. Based on this, the paper discusses the existing problems and issues, and proposed research thoughts and future directions of research for the SPO operating environments. Summarizing and analyzing previous related research work, this paper provides references for future research for the MBSE-based aero-engine system modeling and fault analysis.
