Axel Reichwein received a PhD in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Stuttgart focusing on multidisciplinary system modeling, data integration, and model-driven system configuration using the Unified Modeling Language (UML). Pursuing his research interests, Dr. Reichwein continued as a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the Georgia Institute of Technology with Dr. Chris Paredis focusing on the Systems Modeling Language (SysML). His research was sponsored by Siemens, United Technologies, John Deere, Ford Motor Company, and DARPA.
During his PhD and Postdoc, he implemented several model tranformations between UML/SysML and discipline-specific models (CAD: CATIA, SolidWorks, VRML; Dynamic System Simulation: Simulink, SimMechanics, Modelica; Mathematical Solvers: MATLAB, Mathematica, GAMS; Other: Excel). These model tranformations were implemented using standard programming languages such as Java as well as new emerging model transformation languages such as Query/View/Transformation (QVT).
Axel Reichwein also actively participated in the Object Management Group (OMG) by chairing the OMG SysML-Modelica project and by contributing to the Systems Modeling Language (SysML) working groups.
Dr. Axel Reichwein has applied Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) techniques in multiple projects with industrial partners including:
| Siemens | John Deere | United Technologies | Ford | Dürr | Airbus |
