Final grade: 8.5 The (Python) model enables the development of a more mature EWIS design at an earlier stage in the design process. This results in less design changes and therefore reduces the development cost. In addition, it is a key building block in performing automated multidisciplinary design optimization reducing the EWIS weight and cost.
