- Rigorous solution neutral functional modelling early in product development is crucial for modelling complex multidisciplinary systems. The Systems State Flow Diagram method was developed over years of collaborative work with the automotive industry focussed on robust systems engineering design (Ford RFTTD project £240k 2011-2014; JLR Systems Engineering Design Excellence £220k 2014-2017) and has since been transferred to the industry (Ford and JLR), extensively applied in projects (Ford papers doi:10.4271/2017-01-1603; doi:10.4271/2017-01-0298), and has been included in CPD Short courses for industry taught to over 1,500 engineers.
