What If Designing the Future of Aviation Could Be Fully Digital and Collaborative?
summary
DLR Hamburg builds a unified digital thread that stores full aircraft definitions as an open CPACS single-source XML, links fast access libraries like TiXI for efficient data reads, and produces exact geometry with TiGL 3D model generation plus a CPACS Creator no-code configurator. Workflows run in RCE to automate simulations, cost and performance analyses, and the Digital Hangar publishes parametric models users can download, modify, and re-run end-to-end.
