Specifically, they can
- understand the role of models in the entire product life cycle. This applies in particular to product models as representations of products in all phases of the product life cycle, process models as representations of engineering and business processes, process models as representations of processes in production, logistics, commissioning, product use, maintenance through to product recycling (k2)
- understand the most important CAx models and CAx tools for product development and have knowledge of their application (k2, k3)
- understand and apply common methods of modeling and simulation, procedures for creating models including model planning (k2, k3)
- apply various methods of modeling and system analysis through simulation (k3, k4)
- carry out the necessary steps for model verification and validation (k3, k4)
