The talk provides a general overview of Airbus Group and Flight Physics, the global challenges of the aeronautical industry, and shows how Model Based Systems Engineering can contribute to meet these challenges.

Airbus Group is an aircraft manufacturer with three divisions for commercial aircraft, helicopters, and defense and space. We are a truly global player, who for more than 50 years has been pioneering innovation, setting the highest standards in terms of product developments, technology and environmental performance. The digital revolution offers unique opportunities to strive for even more ambitious solutions to serve the industry and our customers. Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) is a key enabler in order to seek genuine multi-disciplinary optimization and processes, enabling a real step change in terms of aircraft design, manufacturing, and services, while continuously improving our environmental performance. The Michigan Centre for Aero-Servo-Elasticity of Very Flexible Aircraft is a strategic partner to support Airbus’ ambition in this respect, and highlights of this partnership will be elaborated as part of this talk.

About the speaker...

Marc Fischer is a Senior Vice President within the Airbus Group, and has been leading the Airbus Flight Physics Center of Competence (EG) since November 2014.

The Center provides flight physics solutions to all Airbus products and is part of the overall aircraft design community and the Engineering function. Flight Physics employs 830 engineers across 6 sites and consists of seven domains, covering: Aerodynamics, Loads & Aeroelastics, Aircraft Performance, Mass Properties, Flight Dynamics Simulation, Policy, Development & Integration, and Business Transformation & Strategy.

Prior to his current role, Marc held various positions within the Loads & Aeroelastics Domain, including the posts of Head of Domain (2012-2014), and Head of Component Loads & Systems Support (2010-2012).

Originally, Marc joined Airbus as a structural engineer within the Structural Analysis department (2003-2005), which was followed by the positions of Executive Technical Assistant to the EVP Engineering (2006-2008) and A380 Assistant Chief Engineer (2008-2009).

Marc holds a Master of Engineering (MEng (Hons)) degree and PhD from Cardiff University, United Kingdom, as well as a Master of Business Administration (MBA) from the College des Ingénieurs (CDI), Paris, France.

Having grown up at the border between Germany and France, Marc has developed a strong interest in foreign languages, and speaks German, French, English and Spanish. He is 44 years old and currently lives near Toulouse, Midi-Pyrenees, France.
