Aerospace engineering offers a challenging test environment for advanced design systems and methods. Focusing particularly on KBE systems (knowledge-based engineering), this paper demonstrates their application in automating the solid modelling of aircraft structures. The principles are illustrated through a case study example in which a description is given of the knowledge-based geometric modelling of light alloy fuselage frame sectors. The business benefits of using KBE systems in an aerospace engineering programme are quantified. Recommendations for the extended application of the technology to achieve strategic market advantage are also given.
