The objective of the Open Digital Environment for Hybrid-Electric Regional Architectures (ODE4HERA) project is to enable and accelerate the development of Hybrid-Electric Regional (HER) aircraft thanks to improved tools and techniques implemented in a transferable and Open Digital Platform (ODP). HER configurations imply far higher complexity than conventional configurations while involving new aircraft technologies and broader collaboration across the value/supply chain. State-of-the-art digitalization techniques limitations put at risk the achievement of the 2035 HER Entry-Into-Service (EIS) target. To address these challenges, the ODP developed in ODE4HERA will combine MBSE, MDO, SDM and PLM technologies and extend them with novel open interfaces, formats, smart model and data transformation technologies efficiently handling and processing HER configurations complexity, including frontload verification at design stage and virtualize validation for improved virtual certification.
