Synchronous integration method of mechatronic system design, geometric design, and simulation based on SysML

The benefits of integrated design using the Model Based System Engineering (MBSE) approach in the design process of mechatronic systems have gradually become apparent. The automatic generation of simulation models and geometric models based on System Modeling Languages (SysML) models enables system engineers to swiftly analyze and simulate system performance, visually depict design outcomes, and expedite the product development process. Due to the current system modeling's lack of model integration and geometric design functions, this paper proposes an integrated design and simulation method for mechatronic systems that can carry out complete model synchronization and verification, rapid geometric solution generation, and visual representation. Furthermore, a corresponding model synchronization integration framework is established. This framework primarily encompasses system de-sign, system simulation, and geometric design, with its model integration method being model transformation and model synchronization. The paper concludes with an example of the design process of a quadruped robot to validate the framework and its supported methods, providing a reference for other system design and integration endeavors.
