Overview
This year’s theme considers how simulation and analysis is improving assurance processes across modern aerospace and defence systems. This event brings together three tightly interlinked themes:
- Certification by Analysis (CbA) - Learn how validated computational analysis and modelling are increasingly supplementing—and in some cases replacing—traditional physical testing, accelerating certification timelines while maintaining safety and regulatory rigor.
- Digital Engineering and Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) - Discover how software and system models create an authoritative digital thread, strengthening requirements traceability, enabling early validation, and supporting compliance with complex safety and airworthiness standards.
- Digital Twins and Test and Evaluation as a Continuum - Explore how system and system-of-system modelling is enabling the shift from sequential, late-stage testing to continuous and integrated T&E across the lifecycle and then monitoring, diagnostics and prognostics during operation.
Why Attend?
Across the product lifecycle these three domains are converging around a common enabler: simulation and analyses as an integrated foundation for design, verification, validation, and certification.
This conference will showcase how aerospace, defence, regulators, OEMs, and technology providers are:
- Leveraging digital models to drive earlier, safer decision making
- Integrating simulation into end-to-end T&E workflows
- Using model-based approaches to satisfy regulatory compliance
- Streamlining certification for high integrity cyber-physical systems
- Building cohesive digital threads across engineering disciplines
Who Should Attend?
Systems engineers, software engineers, certification specialists, T&E professionals, regulators, digital engineering leaders, programme managers, and anyone shaping the future of high assurance aerospace and defence systems.
